Re: Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
Thanks dear Niels,
I use Pro-micro controller for MIDI and I wrote "sparkey.ino" for MIDI connection. It works on SparkSDR. Maybe this sketch does not avairable for Quisk.? umm... Should I re-make a new MIDI controller for Quisk with Arduino Leonardo or Due? Hidehiko JA9MAT. |
Re: Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
Hi Hidehiko
Does your? keyer send MIDI ? Here is a small arduino code that reads a morse-key? and sends MIDI to the usb-port. I have not tried on Windows but it works on several linux versions. //---- Code begin ---- #include "MIDIUSB.h" // keyer to MIDI for Quisk, Requires an Arduino Leonardo or Due // nja 2-nov-2022 const byte ledPin = 13; const byte interruptPin = 2; // keyer connected ti this pin volatile byte state = LOW; void setup() { ? Serial.begin(115200); ? pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); ? pinMode(interruptPin, INPUT_PULLUP); ? attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(interruptPin), blink, CHANGE); } void blink() { ? state = digitalRead(interruptPin);? // l?s status p? interruptpinden //??? Serial.println(state); ? if (state == 1) { ??? keyDown(); } ? else { ??? keyUp(); ? } } void keyDown() { // Key the transmitter ? noteOn(0, 60, 64);?? // Channel 0, middle C, normal velocity ? MidiUSB.flush(); } void keyUp() { // Unkey the transmitter ? digitalWrite(ledPin,LOW); //turn off the LED ? noteOff(0, 60, 64);?? // Channel 0, middle C, normal velocity ? MidiUSB.flush(); } void noteOn(byte channel, byte pitch, byte velocity) { ? midiEventPacket_t noteOn = {0x09, 0x90 | channel, pitch, velocity}; ? MidiUSB.sendMIDI(noteOn); } void noteOff(byte channel, byte pitch, byte velocity) { ? midiEventPacket_t noteOff = {0x08, 0x80 | channel, pitch, velocity}; ? MidiUSB.sendMIDI(noteOff); } void loop() { //? digitalWrite(ledPin, state); } //---- Code end ---- Hope this helps. de oz9ny, niels |

Re: Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
Hello Jim,
?
I'm experimenting QUISK CW mode with MIDI-Keyer that is using at SparkSDR.
?
I configure MIDI setting and I assigned "PTT" to MIDI-Keyer. Then the "PTT" turns to "ON" every time I push the MIDI-Keyer. But no CW transmit occures.
?
I attach 3 of screen capture FYI.
1) CW Setting (COM3 is my MIDI=Keyer)
2) MIDI Setting (Assign PTT as MIDI-Keyer)
3) PTT ON but NO Transmit
Is there any other setting needed?
?
Thanks for the nice progress!
?

Re: Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
Hi Jim
I have testet on both linux and windows. The only problem I have is power output from hermes lite. If I connect to quisk the "old" way I get 5W output. With the remote setup I only have 1.8W to 2W. Remote is a raspberry pi4 and local is either a linux labtop or a windows pc. de oz9ny, niels |
Re: Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
Hello Jim,
Many thanks for the new version which seems to be behaving really well. I notice a better than four times reduction in bandwidth at around 55 Kibps and so far through the internet, I have not detected any dropouts. There is a bug which was there before this version 1. The last RfLNA setting is not being saved. To match my S meter I use a gain of 14 dB and have to adjust it from 20 dB each time. I have added the line "hermes_LNA_dB": "14", to the quisk_settings.json file as a work around but of course now it is stuck on 14 (which is what I want) but maybe not for others. Oh yes and a big thank you for the audio file recording. I was recording a CW message from a friend who had an intermittent rasp on his signal which I was able to play back to him to aid his diagnosis. Ben, the CW is working beautifully! I have given it a fair bit of work and will continue to do so. Naturally I am a bit slow off the mark to break in but that is such a small price to pay for all the other gains. I am going to take my laptop and key out into the field in a couple of weeks and will be very interested to see how it goes using my phone as a hotspot. The system is much kinder on my data now. I will continue to test and report back. 73, Graeme ZL2APV |
Quisk Version 4.2.11 November 2022
This is an update to the new Quisk Remote feature by Ben, AC2YD. This version reduces the audio sample rate from 48 ksps to 8 ksps. This should help with slow networks, but is is hard to predict the effect. Please test.
?
If you have dropouts at the new sample rate, try increasing the "Play latency msec" on the Config/Timing screen. Quisk buffers sound, and the buffer size can be adjusted.
?
I fixed the problem with the Split Rx/Tx feature. Please test. Ben made some additional changes for Windows networking. Jim N2ADR |
Possible Graphics Bug
Hello Jim and Ben,
I have had this one happen a few times now where the graphical display freezes on the Ctl-Head but the rest of the radio is working. I was a bit more careful with my observation this morning. 1. After transmitting and going back to recieve on 3.605, the graphical display was frozen. 2. Clicking up the band shifted the cursor line but the rest of the graphics were frozen. 3. I changed bands to 10M and the 80M graphics remained even though the band change worked. 4. I took a screen shot of this (1_Ctl-Head.png) where you can see 10M selected, the spot information for 10M but 80M graph. 5. Opened remote with VNC Viewer and took a screen shot of the remote (2_Remote.png) which had frozen graphics on 80M 6. The remote display shows the bandwidth marker on 3.605 but the cursor has moved to where I clicked 7. I restarted Ctl-Head and here I am a bit hazy but I think that everything displayed correctly on the Ctl-Head but the remote was still incorrect (3_CtlHead2.png) 8. Finally I restarted remote without stopping Ctl-Head and everything aligned 4_Remote2.png and have not been able to get the bug to appear since. I would not rule out RF getting back into my system at this point but others may have had this happen too. Sorry I have no logs but will document more closely in a future event. 73, Graeme ZL2APV |
Re: Quick 4.2.9 CW Mode with Globemaster
Hi Jim,
We have followed your advice and we've spent some time investigating the CWU issue. We are pretty well convinced that the RIT is being reset to Zero instead of -600 Hz when changing from CWL to CWU. Despite the fact that the RIT Button is displaying -600 Hz at the time.
?
As previously mentioned, with Quisk version 4.2.2 the offset for CWU is applied as expected.
?
If you get a chance to take a closer look that would be much appreciated.
?
Thanks
Andy

Re: Bugs with WSJT-X on Control Head
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi Jim, I'm using WSJT-X 2.5.4 also. I just confirmed that the relays do *not* click from band changes from WSJT-X, although the Control Head and Remote Radio band buttons, as well as tuning frequency, change properly. Clicking on the band buttons on the Control Head, I hear relay clicks just fine. If it works for you, that's good ... I may just be missing something in configuration ... any idea what it might be?? I'm using WSJT-X radio Hamlib NET rigctl, on localhost:4532, and it's clearly successful in controlling Quisk, except for the relay behavior. Regarding the "Tune" button, I am a newbie to WSJT-X, and have no
opinion about how important it might be ... I noticed it so I
mentioned it. Thanks! -- Ben, AC2YD -- On 10/24/22 16:02, jimahlstrom wrote:
