Re: Setup>Transmit "Mic Gain"?

Does anyone know what the unity gain reference level for the balanced TRS input on the G2 is?
Normally the standard is +4db or -10db. What is the G2’s balanced TRS input?

Re: Setup>Transmit "Mic Gain"?

OK I think I understand now, These adjustments don't control the actual audio level they control the range of the Mic level control on the main screen.
Correct?

OK on the G2 it does not seem to control the level for the TRS balanced input.
I guess it's for the 1/8" mic input only?

I have the one with the 2 10mhz outputs and this unit and works fine with G2. It works with as little as 8mA of drive, outputs a square wave. Just put the GPS antenna in your window or outside, connect GPSDO to radio via BNC to SMA cable to the 10mhz input on the back of the radio go into Thetis and...

Re: rec audio clicking/chopping on peaks

As a listener of multiple anan 7000dle's running Thetis in various nets and rag chews I have been hearing this very “Clicking/Chopping” sound on some of there signals for at least a year now.
I don’t know what their setups are but Just my personal observation.

I have my G2 100W no control panel connected to my home Wi-Fi and the internet speed is terribly slow? I have tried 2Ghz and 5Ghz and can only get speeds like 0.80 Mbps Download & 0.20 Mbps Upload. It seems like the built in wi-fi on the RaPI is in some kind of slow mode as I get great wi-fi spe...

Re: Thetis 2.10.1 Released

Did NOT fix the issue with the Balanced input my my G2 100W no panel model?
Still can only use the 1/8 mic input for voice.

It did fix the monitor audio is now working!
It also fixed the issue where audio would drop out when opening and closing the RX2!

Re: Tx Audio quality? And viewed on Thetis Oscilloscope

I wonder if the scope distortions are artifacts of the the GUI display or actual distorted output?
I think the next step is to hook up some test gear and see if the actual RF output has distortion/MID.

It may be that GUI display has trigger issues with some types of input but I'm just guessing ;)

Re: Selecting Balanced XLR input

Maybe it's just Thetis and the G2-100 no panel model?
This may all be related to the other audio issues the G2 is having?

Anyway thank you very much for helping me with this issue at least we know the hardware is fine.

Re: Selecting Balanced XLR input

After I added the -m xlr & command I saved and then restart the radio by powering down and up again.
I tried with and without the "&" symbol just to see if there was any diff.

Here are some pics if this helps.

As you can see the p2app is loading with the "XLR" enabled.

How do I speed up Wi-Fi on G2-100?

I have my G2-100 built in computer connected to my home wi-fi with the supplied wi-fi antenna but the speed is Crazy slow like 0.50mbps.
Normally I get about 150mbps or higher with my other wi-fi devices. Are there some settings I need to change in the G2?
