Re: A few G2 hardware questions
Hi all, Can anybody confirm that that G2 has the TLV320AIC3204 codec implemented , and where on the PCB, and whether there is a direct jump point to pick up the line in pins e.g 13,14,15,16 . I cant seem to find any G2 circuit diagrams available. Looking at the physical board maybe J56 facilitates ...

Go check the auto AGC offsets, their behavior changed in the last update. You'll need to reset and find what works for you.

Re: Thetis 2.0.3.6 dev_2 issues
I am also having an issue where when the radio has been operating for some time, then I close Thetis and come back and operate later....I seem to have very low RX signal level even if I change bands. I must physically power off the radio to recover normal signal levels.

I think I have this very same issue on the EP4CE 7000...not sure if we can take a look at that too. Usually it starts up on one frequency, then after transmitting it'll suddenly have a different frequency reference some 200 Hz off.

Re: Suddenly slow to power-on and 'apparent' RFI
What about every 10 kHz? A few months ago I've started getting similar interference, not from my house so it will be tough to track it down.
Viewed on another radio you can get a better picture.

NO, This does not fix the issue. This records the I/Q quadrature output, NOT THE TRANSMITTED AUDIO. This is insufficient and incorrect as a representation of the TX AUDIO.

There's a checkbox in the VAC config page, "Bypass VAC for recording playback". Make sure it's checked.

Switching vs Linear supply, noise on carrier
I realize this is totally down in the noise, but what causes this?
On a high quality switching supply, I've noticed a little bit of noise on my carrier.
When on a big astron linear, it looks squeaky clean.

Re: Suggestions to improve PS operation on 7k DLE Mk2.5?
Thanks Rob, and Scott, for the info.
I measured the total draw in RX at 1.07 A, and when keyed with silence 3.4 A. I think that's pretty much in the ballpark, assuming 1A per device.
Do we know what the stock bias is meant to be on the recent 7000?
