It's the round one on the old housings (100D, 200D, 7000DLE).

Hi,

I need the p/n of the power switch at front panel of an ANAN-7000DLE MK2, should be the same as in -100D, -200D and 7000.
The old man (80+) is 1000 km away and I try to help him at less cost as possible.

and now the saturnprimary2024V18 works without me changing anything.

Where can we find the special firmware? What is the difference to the V18 I got with todays Saturn update?

Pulled the latest version of pihpsdr, but still no fun

Check that your directory structure is correct. It is also possible that the piHPSDR directory is in the github directory -->

home/pi/github/pihpsdr.desktop
Please, please, please, don't blame the directory structure for any problems! piHPSDR is working perfectly on my Saturn within /github ...

Interestingly I've just been exchanging messages with Rick (one of the developers) on a different topic and he has had the same experience. The cause was, he had a primary image installed at the fallback location; and the fix was to re-install the fallback image at the fallback location, then flash ...

Laurence, that sounds good.
Unfortunately, I'm not a computer expert and LINUX is new to me.
Are there any instructions on how to do this?

You can use "git log" to see the version history.

Question: do I need to update Rasp OS (Buster 10) to install all (security) updates with sudo apt update / sudo apt full-upgrade?

Don't do an update of RaspberryPi OS ...

Received my Anan G2 yesterday with the following:
Raspi OS Buster 10 is installed (Raspi model 4). FPGA bit file 30092023. Saturn product version 2. FPGA FW 10.

So this means I need to upgrade to FW 17. Task for the weekend to read the manual and how to upgrade to FW 17.
Can I find somewhere ...

Hi,
This may be a daft question, I just got a G2 last week. How do I see the current firmware version I am running?
Is this the correct place? If so mine shows 2.0.0 which seems very different to version 17 mentioned here?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Richie,

that did the trick. As always, many thanks for your work!

Deinstalled release 2.10.3.6 and installed ver. dev_8b from 08/06/24. Same slow gui building.
Seems to be a problem with the windows. But why do I see this also on a brand new HP Workstation? Both computer are equipped with NVIDIA GPUs. NVIDIA driver?

Switching on my machine is immediate -- no delay at all like you see.

What does your CPU usage look like when switching?

Process Explorer:
TX on, Thetis jumps from 11 to 22 % cpu usage and slows dow to 13 %, still transmitting. When switching back to RX cpu usage jumps up to 22 and slows down to ...

Hi all,

am I the only one with a very slow GUI like seen in the video below? Building up the main window right after start takes 10 seconds until all buttons and other gui parts are placed.

Hi Juha,

which radio and firmware?

I have seen this behavior on several 7000 and 8000 radios with f/w earlier than the version with the rf fix.

See here https://community.apache-labs.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=4972

Within two weeks I have had 3 radios on the bench, two 7000DLE and one 8000DLE ...

No and yes!

Hi Norbert,

I am using built 2024-01-26. I can run 2 receivers at 192000 without problems. Second RX is assigned to VFO B. you can change to RX2 (activate) by clicking on the spectrum. The S-meter and headphone audio are always related to the active RX. Split is working as well.


Reboot, pihpsdr ...

Hi Volker,

I just tried using the 2nd rx, but didn't get spectrum, waterfall or audio. All I got are grey and black fields below rx one. Will later try pihpsdr on M1 Mac too.

Running Saturn f/w 13 and pihpsdr build from 2024-04-03.

I can confirm this behaviour!

Today I updated Thethis to version 2.10.3.6 x63 and (FW v.2.00 Protocol 2) dev_2. I now have no transmitter output power. Has anyone had such a problem?

When using the front panel Mic Jack, even though your Mic is on TIP, and PTT pn Ring, you have to select the opposite in the "Radio" menu. Don't know why this can't be corrected in pihpsdr code!

Note that some people have reported that tip and ring are reversed on that rear panel balanced input so you might try swapping hot and cold (+ and -) if you are not obtaining good performance from that input with this cable.
