rpi5 and wsjt-x

 

I have a rpi 5 running the bookworm os. it receives on wsjt-x with alsa.. on the input choice. I am using sysdefault on the output choice, however I am not sure this is actually transmitting although the rig does go into the transmit mode.
?
Can I get some help on the right choices for input and output. The rig is an FT-710
Re: Power Pi 4 or 5 from 12 volts

 

You're welcome, Dave.

Although I've not used that particular product, I have been very favorably
impressed with the design and operation of several other GeekWorm products.

Best regards,

Re: Power Pi 4 or 5 from 12 volts

 

I've purchased a couple items recently. Although they supply 3A instead of 5A, I haven't found 5A necessary for the Raspberry Pi 4B. They work fine. The one wth the USB type C plug fits directly to the Raspberry Pi.

I just received a marketing email fro GeekWorm that includes a discount on
their X1203 5.1V 5A UPS Shield for Raspberry Pi 5 Series

Regular price: $46.00
Sale price: $41.00

Overview:

X1203 is an innovative uninterruptible power supply (UPS) expansion board
designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5B. With its advanced features
and robust power backup capabilities, the X1203 is perfect for even the most
demanding Raspberry Pi setups.

Re: New to Raspberry Pi and this group

 

I have done an extensive search on internet for solutions to the problem I have been having. It seems to be specific to the FUNCube Dongle Pro + and GQRX on the Raspberry Pi. It seems to be a problem that many are having, not just me. It has nothing to do with how much current the FUBCube is drawing. It is about the same for all three SDR dongles I am using and the other two, the RTL-SDR Blog V3 and the Airspy Discovery HF+, all work fine with GQRX on the Raspberry Pi. I have tried a couple suggested solutions I found but none of them worked (when the FUNCube is started, the mouse and keyboard lock up). At this time I am giving up on using the FUNCube with GQRX on the Pi. Maybe it will work on another SDR program. I still have two other SDRmodules that DO work.

Re: New to Raspberry Pi and this group

 

I got curious and used a 12 to 5 volt adaptor with a USB-C plug on it. I have no way of measuring the current on a USB-C line. But I can measure the current on the 12 volt line. Current at 5 volts is probably slightly more than twice the 12 volt draw.

With the Raspberry Pi 4 with a USB keyboard and mouse connected to the USB 2.0 ports and an HDMI cable to a monitor, after it's booted up and in a quiescent state, I measure 120 mA draw at 12.4 volts to the adaptor. Plugging in each SDR dongle I have, one at a time, into a USB 3.0 port, I measure on the 12 v line:
RTL-SDR Blog V3 = 180 mA
FUNCube Pro + = 220 mA
Airspy Discovery HF+ = 190 mA

These do not look excessive to me and are well within the 3A maximum draw of the Raspberry Pi. I cannot imagine the USB ports drawing anything near their maximum capacity with those measurements. I don't think that's the problem. These are with the 32 bit Raspberry Pi OS. I installed the 64 bit OS on another micro-SD card and installed GQRX on it. I haven't measured the currents on that, but the same thing happens. The RTL-SDR Blog V3 and the Airspy unit continue to work fine when I click on "play SDR." The Funcube causes the mouse to freeze up. I think there is some bug in the software for the Funcube.

By the way, my laptop draws 5 amps at 12 volts. That's what I'm trying to get away from. It looks like the Raspberry Pi will be far below that current draw.

New to Raspberry Pi and this group

 

I just recently joined this group. I'm new to the Raspberry Pi and actually new to Linux. My original purpose for the Ras[berry Pi was to use it as a spectrum monitor for the IF of microwave transverters. This would hopefully take one unknown (the frequency) out of the picture when trying to peak a signal with a dish antenna.? My laptop is an energy hog and is also bulky. Not very conducive to microwave hilltopping operations.

I got a Raspberry Pi 4B. I found these instructions for installation of a program called Freqshow on the Adafruit website:


This seems ideal and exactly what I want. The only problem right now is that the Adafruit 3.5 inch PiTFT display is nowhere to be found. Everyone who carries them is out of them. So that project is on the back burner right now.

I successfully installed the OS for the Raspberry Pi on a 64 Gb micro-SD card. Then I found this site:


So far, I have successfully installed GNU Radio, GQRX, RTL-SDR, FLDIGI, FLRIG, WSJTX , JS8CALL and QSSTV on the Pi using the instructions there. I think it's successful because FLRIG connects OK to my FT897D using a CT62 USB cable.It seems more limited than what the webpage shows with installation instructions shows. I am only able to change frequency and mode of the radio, For some reason I have no controls shown for volume, squelch, noise reduction, etc. Maybe these aren't available for that rig in that program.

GQRX seems to work OK with the SDR dongles I have, except when I use it with the FUNCube dongle, the mouse locks up and I have to unplug the dongle to get mouse use back again. I'm not sure why that is, either. It works fine with RTL-SDR Blog V3 and Airspy Discovery HF+ dongles.

Hopefully some day the 3.5 inch PiTFT displays will be available again and I can start playing around with using that on the Raspberry Pi.

Re: fldigi / flrig Pi Question

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

One of the issues with Linux is package management¡ªmeaning the software isn¡¯t always kept up to date by the volunteer package owner. It¡¯s pretty easy for the software to fall out of date, especially something like the fldigi suite.?

The good news is the fldigi suite is relatively easy to compile and install. Navigate to??and the source is there to roll your own. You¡¯ll probably want to remove the fldigi suite before you start though.

The building instructions are at??for the Pi. There¡¯s also a script to take care of most of this for you at??however I¡¯ve never run it.

You should be able to download that last script, run it in a terminal session and have it build for you¡ªbut please post back if you are still having issues.
