Re: Those GPS 1pps problems. (Some bystander thoughts)
I tried a pulse-stretcher using a 555 [found on the net, not my design] with
both a Trimble unit and a Sure development board. Neither of them had any
success ;-(
OTOH, the 555 isn't the best chip to

It's worked 100% on ALL versions, including all versions so far on
the U1 and the U2.
It just works....

Re: Those GPS 1pps problems. (Some bystander thoughts)
Hi Eddie, Andy
Thanks for the thoughts on this. This is the next challenge - to make the
GPS Interface work with both very short, and very long pulses.
I don't know if I mentioned it before, But I

Re: v2.02k - Twice the fun, WSPR and QRSS together!
Hi Eddie
No, I didn't put it into the spare bytes! I removed the Hell modes from
v2.02k to make space. Hell takes a lot of space in the memory because it's
a huge look-up table for all the character

Did the Rayax work on v2.01
The 1pps pulse width does seem to be tied up with the claimed accuracy for for timing / frequency purposes. Hans obviously knows how to handle long and short

Those GPS 1pps problems. (Some bystander thoughts)
Yesterday I thought I'd try to do a bit of research regarding the
GPS modules used by kit owners.
Now I'm not sure if I've got all the model numbers correct but
from what I've seen so far, all the

Re: v2.02k - Twice the fun, WSPR and QRSS together!

Once the Martello Tower Group have received their 2.02k version, we will be installing it into G0PKT and running both WSPR and QRSS on 30m and setting up a

Seconded ! The improvements are OUTSTANDING.
Hans has done absolutely brilliant work on this version, and it stands
head and shoulder above anything I've seen so far.

Hi All
I recommend v2.02a be rapidly installed in all v2.01 U2's.
It really is good. The improvements in spectral purity are outstanding and some of the operating convenience improvements well worth

v2.02k - Twice the fun, WSPR and QRSS together!
Good morning all,
This is all the fault of Keith Maton G6NHU, who asked for a special
version. Then we thought others might like it too. So that became v2.02k.
It is based on v2.02 but the

Re: Argo - Display Actual Radio Frequency
I don't think you should assume your receiver calibration is absolutely correct or that the sound card frequency display is spot on.
This is what I do to set up a QRSS transmitter. I set Argo to

Re: Argo - Display Actual Radio Frequency
Argo v1 build 143 :
I set the two left-hand boxes to 1000 and the right-hand to 10138700. This allows QRSS and WSPR to run simultaneously.
Obviously you need a filter bandwidth of at least 1.3 kHz

Re: Argo - Display Actual Radio Frequency
I set my receiver to 10.139000 USB
Also set Argo to 10139000 Setup/calibration
This takes care of the offset and you get a proper read out in the LHS
Hope that helps
