Re: No TX output power

Roger - Thank you for your reply. However, I am using Thetis on an external W10 computer, not piHPSDR.

Re: No TX output power

I have a new (4 days out of the box) G2 black face that came V10 firmware installed. Radio worked fine using Thetis on an external Windows PC. I work a lot of CW and wanted to avoid the possibility of a momentary RF spike on my RX beverage antennas so I upgraded FPGA firmware to V12. I thought it ...

Re: Thetis on G2

Dick,

If you plug a display, keyboard and mouse into the black face G2, you get the Linux OS, the P2APP and the piHPSDR software. Not sure if you have to break the LAN connection to the Windows PC because I never tried to access the Linux OS in a standalone mode.

The G2 does not display an icon ...

Re: Thetis on G2

Dick,

Here is an alternate approach for running Thetis on your G2:

1) Load Thetis on your Windows PC. Load you other apps (e.g., Voicemeeter, WSJT-X) here also
2) Connect your G2 to the Windows PC using the LAN ports
3) Power up the G2
4) Click on the Thetis icon on the Windows PC display after ...

Re: Thetis 2.9.0.6 lockup on return to receive from transmit

FWIW - I had a very similar Thetis lock-up problem. In my case it was caused by RFI getting into the DLE 7000 with an integrated i7 from a TX antenna 60 ft above the shack. There is no problem using any of my other antennas farther away.

Re: ADC1 Overload

I concur with Scott. I terminated all unused BNC ports on my 7000DLE MKII and it immediately solved all ADC1 overload issues.

Re: Mitigating RFI from solar panels

Juha,

Everything you need to know about Solar Edge RFI is in a May 2019 QST article by KQ6RF, a San Diego local. See attached reference.
I believe Enphase micro-inverters are RFI free. I'll check with my peers and report back next week.
Cheers,

Re: Mitigating RFI from solar panels

Juha,

We have dealt with this issue for years in SoCal. I can tell you that the DC-to-DC converters on Solar-Edge panels from Israel are the worst offenders. These emit crud every 200 KHz. If you hear noise between 14.197 - 14.200, it is a Solar Edge product. Fortunately there is a rep in CA that ...

Re: Anan 100D PA board Plug

Paul,

The connector looks very similar to a Molex plug. The pins insert from the rear and are held in place by several tangs that expand and press against the plastic once the pin is inserted. You can probably push the tangs toward the center and slide the pins out. After you attach new wires to ...
