I'm interested to know how to redirect the perseus audio output to a specific audio board between the three (!) I'll install on my pc (now there are two audio...
Hello Massimo, To have the playback audio sent to the right device you'll need to set this in the Windows mixer as the default playback device. For playback...
Hi, For a guy who is not so upto date, can someone point me to the pros and cons of a direc conversion receiver which uses FPGA, like Perseus, and one which...
Hi, http://pudxk.blogspot.com/2008/01/testing-perseus-sdr.html has a good write up about the Perseus and does some comparisons with SDR-IQ/14's if that helps. ...
... The Analog Devices AD6620 DDC has inherent limitations in filter shape and image rejection, that are overcome implementing the same functions in the...
... You could define your destination audio board as "standard output" in the "sounds and audiodevices" dialog in the system control panel. If you dont want to...
Perfect Marco, thanks. So it seems both used the DDC function, just SDR-IQ implements this with bought in component, whereas FPGA way allows designer to tweak...
... It is generated in the decimation/downconversion process, and you will find it at F(input signal) +/- F(output sampling rate). A numeric example: you tune...
Still perfect Marco, I got it. Now I just need to understand the difference between Perseus and Quicksilver, which essentially seems to be component and...
Hi, ... The Perseus and the SDR-14 have exactly the same architecture. They sample at VHF and use digital frequency conversion followed by digital filters and...
Hi John and Marco, ... That is true only if you use some specific software. Spectravue or perhaps Winrad. If you run SDR-14 with Linrad you have a freedom to...
Hi all Got my first Perseus few days ago. Wondering if I do something wrong but after closing perseus software and restart it later Sampling rate/Span values...
Hello Kari, Nice to hear you have opted for the best receiver money can buy on the amateur radio market. My Perseus always starts up the way it has closed...
I have been using this combination for a while with some success but find that the vaious kludges required to make it all work (Ratemonkey, VAC) a bit tedious...
Hi Roelof Always using latest software :) All other parameters and values are just as I left them, only Sampling rate is always 2000 after restart. And using...
Hello Kari, Have you tried "restore default values" under settings? You can also try to remove and re-install the software. To be honest, I have had very very...
Thanks friends. I think I'll opt for adequately configuring the windows default sound device. In fact, following a message from Nico, the use of software...
My understanding (and it's not very deep!) is that CW Skimmer's engine is based on the traditional sample rates of 48 k, 128 k, 256k, etc, which the decimal...
... John, correct. Basically very similar. QS1R lacks a good frontend, so has less sensitivity. The dynamic range is very similar; it goes higher in F than...
Hi, just found out that the recordings have a larger bandwidth than announced. The real span is always identical with the sample rate. 2 MS/s mean 2 MHz...
Hi folks, Is there any add on software to control and display the frequency of an Icom or AOR VHF/UHF receiver and use the Perseus with the 10.7MHz IF, I use...
First off let me say how much I enjoy the Perseus. It really is a great radio! By way of background: On my desktop I was experiencing "stuttering" on 800 KHz...
Hi Chris, The 1600 kHz recordings I made this morning, at 5 minutes long each, are 2.344 Gb in size (as usual). This is appropriate for the sample rate used at...
Thanks Guy, What you say about the bandwidth getting choked off sounds reasonable, but it's weird that I don't have that problem with the WD Passport external...
Hi Chris, As I suggested. First, record to your INTERNAL laptop drive, then do a copy to your external HDD to finally play it back from it without stuttering....
Yes, recording to the internal drive and transferring to the external (either WD Passport 250 or WD SATA 500) works fine. Obviously it would be preferrable to...
