Hello All, I've just built a DDS-60 kit with the idea of linking with my v6 board but I'm having a few problems with it. The builders notes say there should be...
Walter, I have built a couple of the V6.0 kits for 30mtrs and hung them from the IF at 10.7 from my IC-R7000. Although I have to off-tune because the SoftRock...
I had a somewhat similar problem but with a PIC-El driving the DDS- 60. Upon start-up a bogus frequency function word seemed to be generated at times and I had...
Check your sound card settings and see if the line in level can be increased. The softrock is quite sensitive and does not need gain. Verify the input filter...
I'm using a SR40/80 with a Delta 44 audio card. Can someone please tell me in words of one syllable how to connect the output of the delta 44 card to the...
... If you are using virtual audio cable you do not need to use the built in audio card. You just 'steal' the output of the Delta-44 and route it to your PSK...
Jean-Claude Yes - I know the principal - it is the practical help I need. What do I set to what???? How do I route the "stolen2 signal to (say) Digipan? As...
Hi Geoff, I never used VAC, so I cannot help for now. I downloaded it, installed it and started to read the help file. I will have to play with it. I also...
... Geoff, Select the Delta 44 for input to your SR software. Select Virtual Audio Cable for the output of your SR software (e.g. Rocky). Then select the ...
... Geoff, I forgot to mention, that you can use the inbuilt audio card for the output device if you desire. Simply configure your PSK program for that card...
... I know nothing about PowerSDR, but have used VAC with my programs. Just tell to the PowerSDR program that its output sound card is "Virtual Cable 1 Out",...
... This I have NO problem with , then tell to the PSK program that its input sound card is "Virtual Cable 1 In". But this is where I fall down..,HOW do I tell...
I have seen these (very cheap) fm transmitters for sale for use with ipods, etc. They are going on ebay for about 12 bucks delivered, and are a stable, PLL,...
Hi John, The v7.0 SoftRock might be good up to 6m but there is a big question if that is so or not. 137.25 MHz I am pretty sure is much to high for the...
Thanks for the reply Tony, the 137meg was just a thought. The main question I was asking, is could we use one of those cheap fm broadcast transmitters as a...
Hi John The AD9851 remains cold if it does not get the 30 MHz reference oscillator signal, and also if the control word is invalid. When it is running...
... Geoff, I am not familiar with that program, but apparently it does not offer to the user the choice of which sound card to use (bad decision by the...
Hello Geoff I use PowerSDR, VAC 3.12 and PSK31 Deluxe with my SDR1K. In PowerSDR setup/VC page, I have these data : Input : Virtual cable 1 In Output : Virtual...
Hello, Good job re-posting it Loren! I'm sure the best thing to do in case like this is to ignore it, I'm sure steps will be taken so they don't post again....
Tony, I found 2 wrong capacitors in the V6 kit, in stead of 820 pf, I got 820 nf for C21 and C23. Maybe this also causses the problems other builders...
Hi Gettit, I checked the bowl from which the 820 pF capacitors were taken in packingt the kits. The printing on the capacitors says 821k. The capacitance is...
I'm sorry, you are completely right, I checked them with my DMM, and indeed 820 pf, I was confused by the k after the 1. sorry and thanks, Gerrit. ... The...
... with ... device ... a ... I've been testing Guido's modifyied SDR code and here are my results along with a few comments. When using two soundcards and VAC...
Mini-Circuits makes a SMT signal splitter that is quite useful for use in SDR radios or in transmitters. I'm thinking of buying some of these devices from...
Hi all This soundcard with v6 gives less than 20 db image rejection. Q/I amplitude equal but phase + 100deg @ -20khz -60 deg @ +20khz +60 @ 0khz, 0deg@+/ -...
We are up to 43 so far, If we make it to 100 then the price drops to $2.14 unit cost. I might have additional items available for purchase, I will look into it...
