TU to all for this great contest.
Well, several technical problems in the first bunch of hours from the start
made uneasy to fully operate the contest as I planned, SO2R on a single PC.
Anyway I was lucky to have had the possibility to resurrect half of the station
and to work quite flawlessly with it. Also much more lucky to solve some other
problems, "where is that damned mouse(!)", that plague any station rebuilt on
the fly. Those small ferrite cores are really the cure to stop quite every lazy
mouse and more.
I was much more lucky to find a bunch of nice peoples that keep up answering
several times on the noisy 40 e 80 meters.
The second night I almost sleep due to this.
Great contest, nice peoples and a lot of lessons to learn: what's better?
I liked a lot to QTC formula and as Don AA5AU last year caught me quite unable
to work out a QTC transfer, this year I have gone back to school before the
WAE. I have had interesting evenings of simulations, both RX & TX of QTC's. It
was easy as I was also testing new toys and macros for the SO2R. Happy to have
had an examination by Don again and that everything seems to be gone on the
right way. Don would you check please?
This year also I went in a QTC exchange with somebody really in trouble with
QTC's and I was really happy to stop it all and try with him in another way.
We succeeded! Great thing learning together. So my SO2R HP faults went on as a
gain for another guy at last, that's great for me.
The prop wasn't so good as it was for the WPX RTTY and for the CQWW SSB. It
maybe that the number of operators on air wasn't so large as then. But it was
much better than for the Makrothen, the second half of this last was a
nightmare on highers bands. The end was on 40m, with peoples exchanging QTC
until late.
BTW in the two fields of the I don't like QTC's and I like QTC I will stay in
second one I like a lot this mechanism. Even if the post contest work is more
unpleasant.
TU to the WAEDC staff for the effort to come, now we have to wait almost a year
to have again ours half of the fun.

<br />
Yes, I was operating from the IQ1RY premises as SO2R, first time in my life. As I already stated it was a lot fun.<br />
<br />
Now I will try to replicate all this in the WAE, something more heavy to, isn't it?<br />
<br />
<br />
For sure it is more heavy, 36 Hours as SO2R instead of 24, the need to make the right choices against contest timings, propagation, log grow up and much more things that are to be strategically and tactically to be considered. My elmers already settled me up and loaded of great ideas and suggestion, now it will be my time with some attention, horse powering and my ingenuity.<br />
<br />
CU all there in the WAEDC RTTY 2011<br />

</tbody></table>The recent happenings have cluttered my desk a little bit. I was forgetting a serious thing that I would like to share with you all, as several of you where there on air: I know! All my personal thanks and also thanks from the whole IQ1RY team to the A. Volta DX Committee. We have just received the plaque as IQ1RY is the winner in the MO class of the 45th edition of the A. Volta RTTY Contest for the year 2011. Many thanks to the group of the organizers and particularly to I2DMI and IK2LOL. Think about: The 2011 of the Volta contest was played in between May 14th and 15th; The log deadline was on June 30th; Almost 15-18 days after the deadline the results were published on the Volta Contest web; On 29th of July I have had the plaque on hands, made it, shipped it to ours address and moved it to the club facilities. Now it’s standing near the 2010 plaque inside the ARI Bra club premises! What’s better? Nothing, may I say. Now let me say some TU as I have to do. TU I2DMI, from the whole IQ1RY team and particularly from IK1HXN, Mario, and myself. TU also to all of you that with yours time and patience, together with us, made this result, for the second year, possible and enjoyed with us the whole 45th ed. Volta Contest. CU all next year!. Not to forget also the N1MM team of developers that with passion and knowledge made a so big numbers crunching possible in a handful of days. Tu John, K3CT, your personal effort was invaluable. 73 de iw1ayd Salvo _______________________________________________ RTTY mailing list RTTY@contesting.com <a href="http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/rtty">http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/rtty</a>IW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642960710088677291.post-91643741046175705112011-08-03T12:28:00.001+02:002011-08-03T14:17:54.455+02:00Digital DXCC or ARRL Board of Directors, respectfully: have my strong disagreement<table><tbody>

Just to read the doc abou and not my personal opinion go there:
<a href="http://www.arrl.org/files/file/About%20ARRL/Board%20Meetings/2011%20Second%20MeetingMinutes%281%29.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.arrl.org/files/file/About%20ARRL/Board%20Meetings/2011%20Second%20MeetingMinutes%281%29.pdf</a>
( Take care of the URL line fragmenting and about the dead space
representation as %20 )
Abstract from "Minutes of the 2011 Second Meeting - ARRL Board of
Directors - July 15-16. 2011"
29. On motion of Mr. Fenstermaker, seconded by Mr. Edgar, the following
resolution was ADOPTED:
WHEREAS the DX Advisory Committee (DXAC) was charged to investigate many
aspects of the ARRL DX program; and
WHEREAS Amateur Radio technology has advanced to include many variations
of digital communication; and
WHEREAS the DXAC has recommended changing the DXCC Award category from
RTTY to Digital or RTTY/Digital or Digital Mixed; and
WHEREAS the Programs & Services Committee (PSC) deliberated this change
and, along with ARRL staff believe the best revised name for this award
is Digital DXCC, and
WHEREAS, the ARRL thanks the DXAC for its work on this name change;
Therefore, it is RESOLVED that the ARRL Board accepts the recommendation
of the PSC to change the title of the RTTY DXCC Award to the DIGITAL
DXCC Award.
What to say, there are no reasons nor facts by any means about the
decision taken inside that document, as seen here in the abstract.
The phrase " WHEREAS Amateur Radio technology has advanced to include
many variations of digital communication ...", tells by itself all.
Technology have changed a lot since the radio was only used for CW,
sparking or funk (DL), in the meantime, since than and until quite now,
there weren't changes in the radio technologies, accordingly to this
2011 sentence: unbelievable.
So, RTTY was RTTY, Phone was Phone and CW was CW. Now, 2011, the
silliest and subtle discovery that whatever is not Phone or CW must be
called Digital, like several appliances we have on hands or at home. So
CW, a digital mode by default and by any mean, will remain unDigital as
Phone, they couldn't could not be assimilated. RTTY, that by itself
haven't any remarkable nor visible soul as Phone o CW, instead will be
fully assimilated. Yes like the Star Trek saga, "Any resistance will be
futile ...". In the movie that was a nice characterization, now it is
only an awful envision at best.
Instead to clearly change anything, i.e. adding a Digital DXCC award -
yes why not, now we are all assimilated as Digital Borg. Worst, leaving
out more than half of the world that is already digital since than. The
sacred soul of CW and its big weapons. Playing between presence or
absence of a single signal and coding signs accordingly mean enough
digital to my, any(?), eyes and my ears, but I would not start a
religious discussion there. All the old DEC self instruction tapes have
already made this point strong enough in the NRZ signals chapter, almost
35 years ago (just the clock/timing recovering may seems to gets out of
the picture ... fuzzy or not fuzzy). Well done, another foot in the
grave and nobody know how many of those we have to spare.
Nemo propheta in patria.

Great time. IZ1TNL was also happy about her first experience, both of
contesting and contesting with her husband. I wouldnâ??t ask she what was more
heavy. Unfortunately the propagation wasnâ??t so good on 15m, 40m and 80m and
at last absent on 10m. As the 20m band, with five elements at 30m high, was
pretty well workable and open until late we resolved to stay there still
barefoot. The RUN routine went quite flawless but not before almost 21 UTC.
Prior to this time we experienced a lot, really a lot, of EU calls due to the
DMC contest running together with NAQP. A nightmare. After the first 15
minutes, since the NAQP start, we added a macro with â??HI NAQP NAQP ONLY NA
SORRY DE IW1AYD NAQP CQâ??. Having a â??NAQP CALL CALL CQâ?? in the automated
CQ doesnâ??t solved the question so when any call was thrown in by out of the
NA call signs we fired the added macro and continued the NAQP CQing. So, we
interleaved the new macro with the RUN CQ as one EU call was popping up in
between every two NA calls. This happened quite half of the time for 2 to 3
hours. Sorry for that but we couldnâ??t afford a contest in a contest logging
practice. It was a good practice to keep ourselves calm and motivated to work
on our objectives. We hope not to have been too much rude with all those other
friends. A simple read of the events/contest calendar may have solved this
issue, but no way to make it simple. A more simple look at the NAQP instead of
TEST or even DMC string may have solved at all this issue, but again no way.
A handful of US operators went up with out of contest QSO style answers in
between ours RUN and this was quite interesting also, as itâ??s not so often
that a EU station went so cherished by any US stations. It was a pleasure for
us and clearly a more big pleasure for ours correspondent. So we stopped the
contesting style RUN to have some form of fast QSOâ??s. Sorry to have been
late for somebody out there. But beading the happiness of somebody about a QSO
with a simple IW1 call is a pleasure. For example having a great time with a
dipole under the roof to make a QSO with EU isnâ??t a every day job, we all
need to remember this. Yes, 20m during the NAQP went very well, for sure.
We struggled on 15m and 80m calling running stations but there was nothing to
do at all. Lately at our local night and until the end of the NAQP tournament
we have had also something interesting to do on 40m. But not so much unluckily.
May be this season marked its hole about.
Having to train another operator, IZ1TNL my wife, was a pleasant job in the
contest. Sometimes I was tempted to be a little bit rude remarking some points,
but she managed increasingly well the radio that all went smoothly and we had a
good time practicing with all those needed tasks in a contest. Well the post
contest tasks are another history.
First radio used was a IC-7600, running quite hot but very well performing,
software was N1MM, plenty of macros, all worked pretty well. We have had a
really hot WX here, so it was a pleasure not to have the PAâ??s running nearby.
Instead of those the air conditioner have done a great job, but only for
ourselves, sorry.

What a great time!
This year the DL-DX was this: a great time contesting, full of friends
everywhere, thanks to all for all for the Qâ??s!
The major thanks have to be for the several Wâ??s and JAâ??s operators that
tirelessly have had the patience to overcome the not so good prop. They have
had signals small than usual, sometime it was somewhat tricky to decode those
not so well sounding tones.
The EU wall was quite every time present, at least for the first 12 hours
period, sorry for who didnâ??t come out from any hole to us.
The 80m and 40m bands didnâ??t worked as for the 2010, more noise and not too
much signals. This was quite expected.
There was a large band signal well placed on almost 21.080 MHz to 21.105 MHz
lately in the morning, radar?. Several of us tried to move out of the mud in
the upper band slice, but it was near the end of contest and not anybody get
it. The already diminishing traffic heavily suffered from this QRM, at least
from this side. That time, plain daylight, the 40m bands still worked for EU
Qâ??s, another load of DL's!
The 10m band went largely opened the first day afternoon. But, as a personal
opinion, not so many have made a trip so long out of a small a bunch of
operators or the skip was quite short also there. Well, better now than years
before.
A lot of I station not so far away from us where listened and contacted on 20m
and 15m, more from ours East than from ours South, some sort of short and
strong skip was also there.
The 7600 again well outperformed the 756PROIII in several aspects, the tricks
of the CAT commands inside the N1MM macros saved our pours fingers and souls
switching filters and the TPF in and out. This last was not so often useful as
it is a somewhat wider than the one on the PROIII, noisy bands made it
sometimes unusable. The 200Hz tricks that Don AA5AU suggested some time ago
helped and give us some relief, but not every time.
The N1MM in was great as usual. MMTTY greatest features, filters, worked well,
apart from the switching time â?¦ a second MMTTY window with a different filter
setup may help with the more elusive signals already in view. Not anybody get
into the tights filters needed for weak and faded signals. BTW several peoples
seems that doesn't have NET on or never checked out for any RX to TX
difference. It's quite usual and well expected, time to time it could happen.
TNX to the organizers of this every time nice contest, also for all their

We had a blast, well we have had three (tens) or more blasts, during the whole
Volta contest and some more after since we get an helping hand from K3CT.
What we have done this time at the Volta RTTY Contest will be written in our
history for years here at IQ1RY. First of all: we enjoyed a lot any single
contact, thanks to all. The Volta is one of the nicest contest from our
standpoint and we enjoy participating it from here. Itâ??s a unique RTTY
business and the operators are consciousness and highly motivated about. We
operated, well we hardly tried to operate, during the event in five OM, two
in charge for the whole contest operating time and three as welcomed guest
operators. The major part of the contest went on as pure adrenaline, well
sometime it was too much quite to be dead on.
We started putting in front of the operating position the last year plaque we
won as IQ1RY in MULTI ALL BANDS. It was the right memento to all the operators
in charge over time. Things started smoothly reaching levels of pure
enjoyment as the local evening was coming. At night one of the blast was the
20m band fully open, as it was for the ARI International DX contest the week
before. But something was better than then. The 40m and 80m bands donâ??t
went abruptly closed, some more appreciable contacts on those band continued
well into ours night time, with the 20m band still working and 15m, well, so
so.
A big loud software bang. At almost the 04Z AM local, 02 UTC, the logger
reached over 900 QSO and went screaming about a runtime error. We werenâ??t
able to make a workaround to this until 08Z AM. In the meantime we have had
some contacts, during trying and troubleshooting the mess. All those
contacts, counting on two hands, where recovered but we furnished some
duplicated numbers. Sorry for that, but we hope that this would not have any
consequence.
After all we restarted one logger, it was almost the 80th I think, and gained
the ability to log contacts without problems. That was done with a workaround
and we knew that we will have to do a heavy work in the post-contest to
reassemble the whole contacts data base. We have now done it, successfully we
think.
As the contest ended we asked for any help from the N1MM development team. Oh
men, to make short a very long story. We had our last series of blasts after
the contest. But we are really lucky as we meet highly motivated and
professional peoples over there. Particularly instrumental for the solution we
had was John K3CT, TU John! You deserve all yours gratefully thanks.
Now Volta operations time for the 2011 is gone and we should be able to send
our results. WOW! What a bunch of blasts! Itâ??s radio, itâ??s ours world.
CU in contest!

<div style="text-align: center;">2011 ARRL RTTY Roundup Results<br />
By Jay Townsend, WS7I ws7I@arrl.net</div><br />
Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability. - John Wooden<br />
<br />
This year in the Multioperator, Low Power category it was HI3A taking the honors. The KP2D group <br />
can‟t seem to shake the second-place jitters and took it again this year. Then it was the Europeans with a bunch of new faces in the Top Ten. UT7E was third. OH8KTN was in fourth and IW1QN fifth.<br />
The big change this year was in the Multioperator, High Power category with what is usually an <br />
all-European-dominated group. Hector, XE2K with just packet assistance won top honors this year. <br />
OL8M operated by Pavel, OK1DRQ was in second place. Closely following Pavel was the IQ1RY group in third place. They related, “It was a first for us and we went through this learning the magic of the things.”<br />
In the 2011 RTTY Roundup there was one new Continental Record set along with 35 new Country <br />
records. There was not as much action here as propagation was difficult at times to many parts of <br />
the world. No doubt next<br />
year will likely be better.<br />

So, the Game of the games it's over for this year.
We went trough all the CQ WW RTTY with more and more happiness and enjoined all
the aspects of the competition, ending so happy that we feel astonished how well
it went for us and ours new M/2 setup.
Many thanks to everybody we meet on air and to everybody tried to meet us,
sometimes it was really difficult to respond in the worse QRM we watched and
listened, the crowd was terrible time to time.
Somebody have had so much patience, tnx.
This was the first year for IQ1RY as Multi Operator Two transmitters.
The operators have gained the chairs time by time to increase theirs experience
and move onto the new setup just done for this M/2 roundup in CQWW.
Everybody learned his lesson and we hope to share all of those â??on the jobâ??
training experiences as soon as possible and quite formally, just not to loose
any possible way to improve.
We have had a simple target: manning this new setup of IQ1RY to make ours best
in the contest and to reach at least 3400 QSOs.
This was ours target and we, thanks anybody out there helped us to reach this
goal.
In the meantime we have had some technical problems, all was solved in a hurry:
we had 3 power mains shutdown events, one transceiver abruptly gone, a PA
suddenly switched out, several trains trespassing on the nearby railway.
Last but not least, as we went over 3400 QSOs, we decided to share all together
the deserved, tu IK1RQT prize a bottle of Ferrari brut that was quickly opened
and shared at the end of the airtime.
At the end we all have had a safe trip to ours homes, still having in the ears
the RTTY sound and all those friend callsigns we meet on air.
We hope to meet again soon will all those OM and others there and on air: just
to have such a big fun as this.
Special congrats to IK4MPG, IT9BLP and DQ4W team.
IQ1RY operators: IK1HXN, IK1SPR, IK1RQT, IZ1LBG, IW1AYD, IW1QN, I1BEP, IW1FNW.

Happy days, we went through the whole WPX enjoying each single contacts and the
whole mess we work together. The prop was really strange and changing on every
hour much more than before.
Thanks to all contacted us, some more thanks to who have had the patience to
come through some heavy walls that we experienced time to time. Sometime it was
really hard to listen from this side, but all went in a friendly way.
Another thing we recognized is a lot of dupe, may be in the statistical view
are those are well numbered, but the view is that not only from ours site it
was hard to listen.
All went almost flawlessly since the first time through the whole contest, some
episodes, Q’s are quite remarkable, HH in the last five minutes was the candy
over a great and sweet cake.
We were honored by two guest operators, Maurizio IV3ZXQ and Alberto IV3BSY.
The tradition of IQ1RY, to have guest operators for ant phone or RTTY multiop
contest was continued with such a good guys. Theirs efforts for the whole
contest duration was invaluable.
The 20m band open until early local night and a somewhat open 10m bands may
seeded a change in tactics and strategy for the next times. We hope that ours
move in and out the bands during the WPX time went done accordingly to those
changes we are facing. Stations more South than us really appreciated much
better the 10m band.
A fast points and log examination has given us a big pleasure, as we went
working all together and the results compared to ours oldest targets are better
than before. It's nice and well done from ours standpoint.
Chapeau for the big stations we listened and recognized as some of our best
friends worked the WPX from there. We never forget to practice learning from
those.
It was a nice WPX 2011, see you all with IQ1RY in the next contests.

I have some experience driving it also with the PROIII and the FT-950, with the respective ALC well connected and it works more easily for sure.<br /><br />I could confirm and say as mine yours words and opinions from my side.<br /><br />I gained some compromise setups band by band after all my intense usage with my poor dipoles in a restricted town shack with a condo roof for aerials. It's not easy and during contest, at night, ... those happenings that you could easily leaved me so disgruntled that I was ready just for the bed.<br /><br />As I reached a good compromise, with the driver left a 50% and the main power output control done via the TX gain with heavy steps, I never tried, for example, a software utility called DDutil by K5FR. It could be, if you have any interest or just curiosity about, interesting to have a look here:<br /><br />http://k5fr.com/ddutilwiki/index.php?title=Linear_Amplifier_Management<br /><br />This is not to convince you to get back on FLEX, but just to say that yours problem isn't only yours. As somebody other have a managed to find out a solution.<br /><br />Actually all the major players are using a SDR core well surrounded by more traditional layout for ours toys. All this is more perfectible over time and with some investment. Also I hope that the market would permit to gain for us the ability to use ours best traditional setups with all the needed and seamless useful new features. The time will tell all to us.<br /><br />By now I would still continue to use my beloved FLEX, brought by me, and a guXX brought in by another operator for the multi single club station IQ1RY. Those vacuum tubes are steady as a rock and not touchy at all when driven even at full legal power for limited test purposes. At home I will stay more low, as US legal power will light neighborhoods lights and would illegal here. RTTY at 300/400W it's mine limit, 500W is the Italian hamradio operator limit for any class, not mobile.<br />You know Daniel it's kind alike the food: each one, name one, have it's way to be better cooked around the seasons of the year not only by it's nature and kind. Flavor are different each time.<br /><br />Next time you will operate a FLEX I hope to be by myself operating a FT-9000 and my 1K-FA. It would be a real pleasure IMHO. I just have to find where are all mi mics, anyway one the right will suffice ... If I just could remember where I stored all of those. ;-)<br /><br /> 73 de iw1ayd Salvo<br /><br />on response of ---<br /><br /><div class="subject root grey"> Re: [FTdx-9000] Re: Flex-500A </div><br />Thank you so much for your input. I read all that you wrote with great interest.<br />I am happy to hear that the SDR platform has worked well for you. One of my<br />greatest problems with the Flex-5000A set up is the lack of an ALC circuit. I<br />have an SPE Expert linear which is VERY "touchy" in terms of input wattage. When<br />there is an ALC circuit, it works like a charm, but without it, I find the<br />linear constantly shutting down with one fault or another. I have tried several<br />approaches. I may try one of the other Flex radios again in the future, perhaps<br />the even the next generation. They are always updating and upgrading. I am sure<br />that there will be other Flex platforms which will be a bit less clumsy. Their<br />panoramic display is 2nd to none. Hopefully Yaesu and Icom will come up with a<br />panoramic display like the Flex.<br /><br /><br />Well, thanks so much for sharing your experience!<br /><br /><br />Daniel -- W3DCBIW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642960710088677291.post-24249656065831887052010-08-25T11:10:00.003+02:002010-08-25T11:16:20.846+02:00From TS590 yahoo group - Re: Extra Filter Slots?Hello to all.<br /><br />I would associate my opinion with the same from Peter - HB9PJT.<br />Clear points Peter. Also the last one it's clever: " We will see".<br /><br />One more point that I would give for discussion is that, citing the FLEX software and hardware architecture, a big enhancement in the filter shape occurs with bigger buffers. I mean those buffers in the DSP processor, as far as I know. This seems quite independent from the DSP algorithms used. I just leave the standard one offered by default.<br />What I mean is that when I choose inside POWERSDR(tm) smallest buffers. As to decrease latency inside those buffers, let's say a 512 bytes buffer size. The filter shape degrades by any mean. RTTY signal nearby 100/300 Hz from a 230Hz filter leaks visibly on MMTTY waterfall. There is also the associated audible signal in the speaker. With bigger buffers, let's say 2048 byte, there is a perfect shaped effect with the same IF filter. No nearby signals at all.<br />In RTTY or any other digital modes that is not CW I don't think that those IF buffers need to be so tight.<br />And there are several other aspects to benefit the filter shape and the whole IF circuitry response, as peter wrote. I could associate also MMTTY BF processing after all.<br />I have no doubt that as it's done by me manually, with the simplest cause and effects process, it could be done flawless and better by the firmware. This last would be made, i hope, around a drill down processing of all the choices involved in. But there is also marketing.<br /><br />Nonetheless, as this will be firmware controlled inside a 590 there is the possibility that something could go wrong. We have a lot of transceivers that looks really interesting but that are at least poor in real world performance. Not to say that some of those are good as door stop from perspective to perspective. By any means a single button action, a mode change to an AGC set, have several things to set and reset, code & data flow. I hope that there was no the wrong approach during the development of this so hoped and nice looking RTX. "We will see".<br /><br />The famous and over speak K3 have had and could have several changes on it's firmware. But the habit about is that everything is well done at any time and for any season. More a mental habit and perception than a real issue as for everyone other builder on the market.<br /><br />Lastly, SDR are the answer for today needs. But there are strengths ans weakness as usual. Different words than in the analog world but same final problems. Not speaking about the void of software and human interfaces. What we see is that all the commercial builders are, for the greater parts of the work done, approaching the soft way to SDR. But this is another story.<br /><br /> 73 de iw1ayd SalvoIW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642960710088677291.post-905855581259570032010-08-24T20:54:00.003+02:002010-08-24T20:58:21.183+02:00Just a great app SDR Console by HB9DRV Simon<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ul9E0K1_VUg/THQVuUBnlWI/AAAAAAAABNE/8Io0VfM_tfw/s1600/HB9DRV+copyright+SDR+console+beta.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 244px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ul9E0K1_VUg/THQVuUBnlWI/AAAAAAAABNE/8Io0VfM_tfw/s400/HB9DRV+copyright+SDR+console+beta.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509052129574622562" /></a><div><br /></div><div>Not just for the graphical integrated GUI idea but fo a lot more thing inside out.</div>IW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642960710088677291.post-37915374129383335982010-08-24T20:30:00.000+02:002010-08-24T20:31:48.783+02:00A SDR full blown layout<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ul9E0K1_VUg/THQQDnawEOI/AAAAAAAABM8/wfllHVRPhYs/s1600/sdr+1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 285px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ul9E0K1_VUg/THQQDnawEOI/AAAAAAAABM8/wfllHVRPhYs/s400/sdr+1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509045898487795938" /></a>IW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642960710088677291.post-34755965017757923962010-08-24T00:13:00.000+02:002010-08-24T00:14:38.631+02:00Re: Flex-5000AHi all.<br />Not to be silly but just to trow in my 2 cents. Well, it's a bigger 44 cents coin at the end.<br />Sorry for the rather long message, I hope it's clearly readable due by my poor English.<br /><br />Unfortunately I don't own any flavor of the FT-9000. It's quite out my target, well several of my targets. Nonetheless I am here and with other groups/mail to read the several interesting thing that come out every day.<br /><br />My experience on FLEX is really positive. Mine activities are centered around RTTY, both Contesting and DX chasing. I like also to have real QSO kbd to kbd or simply air checks with this or any other digital mode. No ROS.<br />I have to admit that before of this radio I get almost acquainted with non SDR radios in half the time. The SDR took a lot of time just because there are so many switch, buttons and lists of values that I have had my time to get it running as smooth as I like. My latest try was with a FT-897 and is 300 Hz filter, just after reselling an FT-450. All went working in some hours, perhaps spreading the efforts over days. But nothing compared to the pure joy of the FLEX.<br /><br />I am using a dedicated and protected PC with W7 32bit(!) for the POWERSDR(tm)radio application with a FLEX-3000. The software environment is completed by N1MM with MMTY or alternatively with MMSSTV, WSPR, WSJT. Last but not least Tmate help me a lot with the VFO fiddling.<br />I have had hard times running the HRD-DM780-LOGGER trio, virtual serial port emulation is quite a nightmare. Now it is solved with mini deluxe, a stretched application that emulate HRD and permit to DM780 and the LOGGER to run flawlessly. The HRD Logger is still the main logger, with HRD utils it help me a lot sorting all electronic QSL activities.<br />As a result s 26", 16:9, monitor is fully crowded mainly by the N1MM bits and pieces together with POWERSDR(tm).<br />This screen is my radio and my radio is on this screen.<br />Filtering and bandpass commanding is written inside CAT commands within the digital set of macro for the N1MM digital window: no radio touching is needed, all the operations are driven by the N1MM windows in focus. Quite the same thing went done before the advent of the FLEX, for filters and some other controls, with the PROIII/FT-950. Well, not all together, some in the N1MM and some in DM780, as needed by the different activities.<br /><br />I have done several RTTY contests from my small pistol shack, helped by a 1K-FA, the Tmate USB device, a trackball instead of a mouse and a multiband V shaped rigid trapped dipole by Create.<br /><br />I have also done, as with some new release the FLEX went more stable, some contesting from the biggest than mine shack of ours club, IQ1RY: astonishing!!!<br />This is a quite good DX site, not so far away and not so exotic, from here. The aerial and some other piece of the facility could be seen on and from ww.qrz.com<br /><br />The FLEX 3000 is at least a good radio. I have have in view the band as I need. All is commanded via the N1MM macro buttons set. All is done almost via a mouse, seldom with the keyboard when not in a chit chat QSO. I just need to find a free spot, if there is one of course, to start a RUN session. Save the current QRG, look at the cluster when permitted or to the band in the panadapter to check out who is there to have a QSO more. He would be a multiplier, luckily, or simply another RUNner just to improve the rate.<br />By this time not SDR software is almost integrated by CAT and virtual and physical serial ports. 1K-FA frequency/bands control was done routing the virtual serial port CAT also inside a physical port, by the way.<br /><br />During DX chasing it's almost the same. After getting the TX QRG of the DX stations it's just a matter of finding in a "view and click" a free spot UP to start calling. Having also the idea on whats going on even on my TX QRG and not only on the DX receiving QRG. This is similar to the double set of filters applied to the RX and TX QRGs VFO for YAESU. A different beast of what ICOM does.<br /><br />Tight filters are really tight with bigger software buffers. I couldn't cry too much about my old and trusted couple of PROIII with theirs one shot TPF. Nor with the nice filters of the FT-950.<br /><br />One thing that I have done is to retain the FSK style operations also in AFSK. The radio will be set dead on the RTTY tones, inside the RTTY filter, not clicking-clacking the mouse to get on the RTTY mouse inside the band pass. This is as FSK fixed radio must be used not AFSK ones. There is also a TX filter for RTTY, tight enough not to spread or spit everywhere unwanted tones. BTW I am running lower tones, mark is 1445 Hz. More pleasant to listen hour after hour, IMO.<br /><br />Another thing that I was doing is to enforce the whole setup environment as to use N1MM any activity, QSO & Contesting. I have learned, over time, a good knowledge of the N1MM environment. Forcing myself to use it anyway since the start of this SDR adventure. I have not to say again that I was maxed out to do this by the first unfruitful bunch of approaches with virtual serial port and the SDR. Things that someone others seems not to have had. The change from DX and QSO activities to the Contest activity "desk", of that time, I simple switch over the related macro sets. Then I engrave it in the database reload information. Each one of these is cooked as needed and will come alone up in the deprecated case there is any application shutdown. Those sets are for the input window. Digital modes macro with filters and general RTTY sentences are the same whiting the digital mode windows.<br /><br />Now I am quite a "satisfied customer", but still asking myself if there is the the real need to change anything out of the main antenna, something of a lack here in a dense urban area, to improve the general setup and, of course, the performances. I still look at mine other radios with pleasure and joy, PROIII, FT-950 and TS-870. I already get rid of several more new ICs and some older FTs (MP). I would also consider a Ft-9000 and is “smaller” brother the FT-5000.<br />I will need something to fill in the portable operation hole. But no way since now, there isn't the right piece of hardware out now. Owning FT-897/857, IC-703, and TS-480, for portable activities, doesn't help too much, also with 500 Hz or 300 Hz filters (remember RTTY!). I see to buy a portable PC to have smooth operations with the 3000 another nightmare that I wouldn't like to start by now. May be the 1500 should be a good starting point, but ... by now I have other priorities. I am in view also for the HPSDR project, the mercury standalone board. Actually it lacks the software facilities side, no CAT, no serials, in one one a good experiment but not to much a radio for the everyday use.<br /><br />May be there are several aspects on witch I get so acquainted and that I even forgot to write all down here. ALC, RTTY TX filter and so on. There could be possible bunch of issues on some of these forgotten things but those last are quite working/solved here. At least I was lucky to find out the mix and max of related adjustments, for now.<br /><br /> 73 de iw1ayd SalvoIW1AYDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.com
