Re: Using MOX vs PTT different transmit eq

That's a beautiful connector! No stop on shell so it pushed out the connector you lose ground. But that was not my problem the shield was disconnected. Those are very easy to over tighten. There should be a small gap between the barrel and the 90 Degree body. If you over tighten you suck the intern...

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. 73 It...

Re: Beginning of transmission spike

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 dow...

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.

Using Thetis v2.10.0 with a new G-100, I've experience issues while using CW mode. The radio transmits as if Break-In is turned "On" no matter what the setting might be. Even with Break-In turned off, all CW dots and dashes are transmitted. I've also noted when that happens, I get an ADC1...

Why is the TAPR github not setup so issues can be posted? With Ritchie taking a break it would seem like the most likely place for it to get noticed is at the link I posted in the original post.

Selecting Balanced XLR input

Selecting balanced XLR input. Noticed this from another post. Protocol 2, and with it Thetis or pihpsdr, have no settings to select the XLR balanced microphone input. In time maybe that can be added, but we'd have to check that the changes to the protocol had no effect onto other radios. In the shor...

Re: Understanding G7KLJ 2.9.0.11 release

What I meant. Late last night local time Steve closed a lot of items and stated Parallel Universe. I imagine around the same time the releases disappeared. Steve has made great progress and done a lot of hard work developing. I would hate to see him stop and be discouraged by someone else's actions.

Going to depend on the software developers. We will not know until it is delivered if anything additional will be done hardware wise for protection. It might be possible since the inclusion of the RPi CM4 in the radio now.

It is possible by using Thetis CAT interface out of a serial port. It will be Kenwood CAT protocol. You will need to convert the Kenwood Serial Data to CIV data with an interface board. Here is the information you need. https://community.apache-labs.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=3838&p=22305&...

Those devices are capable of 1600 each if driven to max specs. A pair will loaf along at 1500 @ 48VDC. It only needs 35 watts drive. The filters and cooling must be the limiting factor.
