I have a 7000DLE MKII. Since purchasing it, I have never had any issue with the radio or Thetis. About two weeks ago, after Helene went through the area, the radio was showing some very high SWR reading on my EFHW antenna. I assumed that the storm had damaged the antenna, but a visual inspection ...

The Thetis Spotting feature works well with k1rfi.com:7300. When I tried added telnet://hrd.wa9pie.net:8000 to the list, it does not connect. As soon as I switch back to k1rif.com, spotting starts working again. telnet://hrd.wa9pie.net:8000 works fine in HRD.

Any thoughts?

I just searched GITHUB and I could not find Thetis-2.9.0.11 anywhere. Could you post a link to this release?

Thanks -

You are right. The ACOM 1000 is rated for 1000 watts, in it can easily produce 1200 watts without damaging its very robust tube. I just found a new JFW Industries 50R-019 Manual Attenuator DC 0-2.2GHz 0-10dB x 1dB SMA on Ebay for a reasonable price. It should add some flexibility to setting the ...

I used the formula listed in this sub-forum to calculate the additional attenuation that my ACOM 1000 watt amp would need when using an Apache Labs 7000 DLE MKII. The result was 2 dBM of additional attenuation needed.

Attenuation rating of coupler dB= 44

Thanks for the information.

I ordered an Xtronic-4SO coupler. The plan is to implement PureSignal on my 7000DLE MKII using an ACOM 1000 amplifier. The published specs for the Xtronic coupler are as follows:

Frequency: 1 - 60 Mhz
Power: 3,000 Watts PEP
Coupling: 44db +/- 1db
Insertion Loss: 0.04db
Return Loss: 30db

I have a 7000DLE MKII with the network cable connected directly to my laptop. I never get a sequence error, until I start up Ham Radio Deluxe; then I get multiple sequence errors. I don't know if there is something that I can do in setting for Thetis or Ham Radio Deluxe that would do abate the ...

Glad it worked out, Pete.

AFAIK your ANAN is the only one in history to be loaded with P2 firmware at delivery. Another entry to the list of known QA issues.

I remember having a discussion online with someone, perhaps this forum, or even Facebook or elsewhere about installing Thetis. I had read ...

My 7000DLE MKII came from the factory with v2.0.0 firmware.
Pete--that doesn't seem correct. 2.0 is a Protocol 2 version number, and so is 2.1.18. The factory only delivers with Protocol 1 loaded.

Is this one of the brand new units with the new revision Orion board in it? Is the serial number ...

My 7000DLE MKII came from the factory with v2.0.0 firmware. I read on the forum that the most current firmware is 2.1.18. Fortunately, before just using bootloader to install the new firmware, I read the warning about the possibility that my radio shipped without a jumper being installed, which ...

The installer is choking on my Windows 7 installation. Any thoughts on a workaround for this?

Thanks,

Just a wild guess, but have you tried running the installation program as an administrator? I think that the issue is more about the age of Windows 7 relative to current Windows OS's ...

I'm currently running Thetis 26.9. Should I uninstall it before installing 2.8.9?

Has Thetis 2.7 been released? When I installed Thetis about three weeks ago, the highest version that I found was 2.6.9. For my radio/antenna/amp setup, being able to switch antennas on the fly from the status bar would be one of my favorite features.

I'm new to Apache-Labs, and Thetis, and very ...

I have a 7000dle Mkii running Thetis 2.6.9. The Thetis manual states that you can switch TX/RX antennas on the fly, from the status bar. The example in the Thetis manual shows TX/RX icons in the status bar. However, there are no TX/RX icons in Thetis status bar in my installation. The only way that ...
