sBitx v3 has low power on fldigi and wsjtx #fldigi #hamlib #raspberrypi #wsjtx


 

I have an sBitx v3 that has essentially not modified, other that a dist-upgrade (It runs some Raspberry pi version of Debian). The full power is 25 W, and when I set the PA drive to 63%, I get 10 W out on CW, as expected. However, when I run either fldigi or wsjtx with the drive set the same, I get 1.3 W. On both, the power sliders are set all the way up to max (0 db). Both are using hamlib. The only thing I could think of checking is the ALSA mixer, but no numbers are small enough to account for a loss of a factor of 8 in power. Any ideas on what else I could check?
