Re: ANAN G2 1K5 Shipping Update

This is exactly why I am not pre-ordering a G1. I would rather just safely wait until they are shipping and a few people have them before I order. I know it's going to cost me more but consider it as insurance.

Re: What is a G1?

A single ADC so no diversity receive. That is not a problem that can't be solved with small footprint receive antennas. I would love to see an inside the case view. Also if it is just an FPGA and no compute module, what is the EOL of the FPGA?

Would not want to place myself in a situation down the ...

What is a G1?

Just saw the listing of a new model called the G1. Looking at it seems to be a single ADC. I thought at first a stripped down version of the G2.

Looking at the back of the radio it doesn't appear to be a stripped down G2. There are no USB or HDMI connectors. There is a bootloader switch on the back ...

Re: ANAN G2 1K5 Shipping Update

Don't worry they are both back. There is a disclaimer they are not taking orders till FCC ID is granted. It also says that if you now place an order it will be cancelled. That does not mean they are cancelling those that have already pre-ordered.

They updated the specs on the booking page...1500W high power 800W low power (e.g. high duty cycle).

So 1500W SSB/CW and 800W FM/Digital

Re: Extra Front Panel for Anan-G2, How to get?

Best thing to do is order a G2 with screen and make your own front panel. Sound like you have a laser capable of cutting so you could design your own to replace factory screen panel. How were you planning on labeling the controls. Etch the material and do color fill?

The amp is for sale separately -- so that will require FCC validation...not the one in the 1.5K model.

Re: Beginning of transmission spike

Yes a downward expander might work but it would have to be external of the radio.
I don't see why that should be the case.
If the threshold were set above the ambient noise in the shack, then the expansion ratio could be set deeply enough to attenuate it below where it would be objectionable.

Yes a downward expander might work but it would have to be external of the radio. Since he is using it remotely this does complicate the problem.

He would need the downward expander on the remote end. Simple way without using external gear is to use a "VST HOST" program and find a Free downward ...

Re: Background noise reports - mic / gain setup?

I would try reducing the Motu gain first. Try being closer to -3 in the whole audio chain rather than 0. Also with the Motu maxed you are overdriving the interface. You didn't mention what microphone you are using.
