Many thanks Tony but 2.9.0.29 didn't work for me, it refused to even open up in a session. Steve thinks maybe it had something to do with Win11.

Scott, you misinterpreted my post. 1) I wasn't 'thrashing', and I wasn't issuing any bug reports. As I stated in my earlier post, I was simply reporting my observations, mostly for the benefit of anyone else who may have observed similar behavior in 2.9.0.31 and who may be wondering whether they are...

Scott, If I may report a couple of observations on your 2.9.0.31a build... 1) I noticed a persistent audio artifact while listening to several folks' transmissions on the 3.806 MHz crowd early this morning. It sounded almost like a birdie, but only while someone's voice was being received. It was at...

Flex has been claiming for over 8 years that their hardware is capable of adaptive predistortion, but still no implementation on the horizon:

To Whom It May Concern, The term "bricked" is incorrectly used when describing any device that can be recovered by any means. The term originally meant (and still means) a device that has somehow been rendered completely and permanently disabled, i.e., rendered as useless as a brick. Somet...

James, I had a Flex 6300 at one time, I never was happy with the fact that there was nothing I as an individual could to to improve the rather dismal TX latency (on the order of 100-120ms, if I recall). I really REALLY appreciate the ability to tweak the buffers and sample rates in Thetis to reduce ...

Laurence has commented that there may be a slight latency penalty in thin-client configuration, see his response to a question asked at the 23:05 minute mark in the YouTube presentation in the link at the bottom of this post: https://community.apache-labs.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=4570#p24081 Mark

It's the thermal management I am curious about, A 1000W+ is a lot of heat to dissipate! My guess is since it’s still the same heat sink as in prior versions of the 8000 its going to need a lot of Hi-Speed/CFM fans for cooling so fan noise may be an issue for heavy users? I've got my 7000 and my amp...

Ronnie, I ran across this, don't know if it's even related to what you're trying to do.

The current 7000 already senses high SWR and protects the PA from damage. I see no reason they'd abandon such a feature in a newer rig.

....Looking at the main Apache Labs website they are only listing G2 radios including the new 1000 watt radio. Nothing else is listed. But, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and select Amateur radio products, the older radios, including the 8000DLE MKII appear.... The main Ap...

Hi Tim, The first thing I would strongly urge you do is to Export your database as it is currently configured with all of your settings (the button to do that is at the bottom of the Setup window). That way at least you have a digital snapshot of all of your settings that you can retrieve if you eve...

Robert, I've never fully understood the function of those filters, nor the operation of the Bypass/55 MHz BPF.

However, I will report that the effect I'm observing on RX2 of the 6m LNA and the Bypass/55 MHz BPF are not at all what I was expecting.

Sorry I'm not of any help to you there.

Mark

The radio appears to have a 6-meter preamp (Low Noise Amp) that you can enable or disable but I've never used it so I can't attest to its functionality:


Mark

Robert, The only reason I advised you to dial in 15-20 dB of attenuation was so we could suppress the strength of the offending nearby signal sufficiently to get rid of the ADC Overload condition. If 5 or 10 dB of attenuation will suffice to accomplish the same thing then there's no need to run more...

Yes, now you're actually witnessing what I was referring to. If the noise floor drops when you pull the antenna then the attenuation isn't having any negative effect on any signal that's above the band noise.

Mark

Robert, You're overthinking it. Even after attenuating the signal coming in from the antenna, as long as the noise level is still above that of the machine itself (which can easily be determined by disconnecting the antenna -- if the noise floor drops then the noise level coming in from the antenna ...

OK Mark, That attenuates wanted signal as much as out of passband signal, correct? Not really wanting to loose performance on wanted signal here, is there not a better solution to out of band pollution? Thanks, Robert KA9UVY The raw S-meter strength of any particular signal of interest isn't what's...

Robert,

See the pic attached, the two yellow arrows on the mid- and lower-left portion of the screenshot are pointing to the S-ATT attenuation settings.

The upper arrow is pointing to ADC1 attenuation, the lower arrow is pointing to ADC2 attenuation.

Mark

Increase your ADC2 S-ATT value to 15 or 20 or so.

I've wondered that myself, it would help a marginal CPU if some of the workload could be transferred to the graphics card if one was present.

Thanks Tom, I've bookmarked your post!

Mark

James,

Very glad you got a great deal on some speakers that you really like, that's what's important!

Mark

Jordi, make the following adjustments and see if that helps. 1) Increase your VAC1 Buffer Size to 256 (your current size of 64 may be too low). 2) Reduce your VAC1 Sample Rate to 48000 (your current rate of 96000 may be too high). 3) Increase your Ring Buffer latency (both In and Out) to 20 (your cu...

My feeling is that Pure Signal runs better, more stability?? My feeling!

I do believe I'm also seeing a bit of improvement in PS performance. And VAC is rock-steady, I'm not seeing any overruns/underruns anymore.

Well, I guess this is just a Beta Bug.

If no one else has reported such a problem in the months since 2.9.0.8 was released I don't think it can be summarily attributed to being a "Beta Bug".

This thread is not the place for that rant.

Mark, Now that you mention it, I recall having the same problem you described. My card company rejected the charge because 1) it was a larger amount than I had a history of transacting, and 2) it was an overseas merchant. I contacted the card company and the payment went through on the second try. M...
