Re: So Disappointed But I Rolled it Back. 7000 MK III To Protocol 1

Curious if you tried protocol 2 but at the lower spectrum width? If there are issues in networking, the added data throughput exaggerates them for sure as it’s a lot more data on the line to process. I had a lot of headaches a while back due to an antivirus that had a shim on the IP stack (I disable...

Re: Adjust Audio Level in playback Recording

The recording level is based on your setting at the time for receive volume so it will vary on you. Set playbac...

Re: TCI with RF Kits RF2K amplifier

Unfortunately the default port for TCI in Thetis is also 50001...so you have to check, that you have different ports! Best to set it in Thetis to 50051 or some other free port. ...

Re: Selecting Balanced XLR input

1/8” or 3.5mm jacks do not take any strain well at all. You basically need to strain relief them. If there is any pull they get bent easily and also they tend to lose contact as the jacks are often loose fitting where the greater surface area of the larger plug is more stable.

Re: G2 arrived today

The Moni volume needs to be set while transmitting. There are also a few settings that govern that behavior. This is in Thetis so I’m unsure on pihpsdr. It may similarly need to be adjusted while in transmit.

Re: "Hum" on Carrier - Very odd

A tip. VAC can glitch on initial start or a mode switch if sampling and buffer sizes change. I test the sound simply by ear by enabling Mon, transmit to the dummy load and see if the sound is clean. For digi I send a data stream to hear it modulated vs just a carrier. If it’s dirty sounding you can ...

Re: FM Tx Audio below 300hz cut off on semplix

Self monitoring on FM is almost impossible due to the effect that desense has.

I basically just let it go with basic audio cleanup and left it alone. What ...

Re: Windows 11 upgrade causing some instability in ASIO

Ripped out drivers, swapped to the Focusrite box, had RF all over my signal as was the last time I used that.

Ripped out all drivers, reinstalled for the Motu and now it's stable again.

Will see if it is stable for a while.

Additionally, Windows apps, video/audio playback, video conferencing, all normal.

EESDR3 the Sun software is also glitching, when it did not prior to the upgrade.

Using wdm-ks interfaces works as a way around the issue, but it seems to be an ASIO issue.

Re: VAC & ASIO Under/Overflows

In the Thetis audio tab, you have your buffers on manual and 0. I just let mine do the automatic thing, my system would never work at 0ms forced.

Everything looks ok from the sound settings, the 512 buffers are large so they should be very forgiving.

Re: VAC & ASIO Under/Overflows

In the Thetis Audio tab VAC set to 48k and 512.

Also I’d drop all the buffers down to 128 and set each of the busses to 4096. Will drop your latency a fair bit.
