Re: Receive Module

Well, I think I am really close.? WSPR is showing receive signals in the waterfall but I am not getting any spots.? I have synced my PC clock with NIST.GOV but wonder if the problem could still be timing.? The TX & RX on WSPR and my U3S do not jive.? For example WSPR will say receiving when U3S is transmitting.? Timing or have I missed something in the WSPR or U3S setup?

I' trying TX and RX as per the QRP-Labs manual for operation and Receive module:

RX:

0? 014,083,600

RX????????????? 12 0


Park Mode 2 and Park Freq 56,334,400

Frame:

10? 00


WSPR:

IQ Mode enabled and Reverse RX IQ enabled with offset set to 12,000

Radio set to None and no CAT

I also set the settings per Ken's suggestions with same result.? Waterfall OK but no spots reported which again makes me suspect I have timing issues somewhere.? I have synced PC to atomic clock but is it feasible I could be off a few seconds?

Thanks for any input.

Hi Vince,
I set mine up as follows;
U3S v3.12a:-
Slots 0-3 RX mode (= 4 x 2 minutes = 8 minutes of Rx time) Set freq to USB RX freq (dial)
CAL 10 115 (takes 2 minutes plus display of cal)
FRAME 10 00? (made from 8 mins of Rx + CAL cycle).
PARK 4 and (4x RX dial LO freq)? ?= allows Rx during CAL mode.

WSPR set RADIO to None, CAT etc to none, choose your audio input (mic/ USB adaptor etc).Set your Maidenhead locator and callsign normally.
