Re: Quisk Version 4.1.48 November 2019

 

I have a real basic (stupid) question: where are all the quisk files on my Raspberry Pi?? I loaded the program on Sunday, it runs, but where? On the older version, they were out in the open.
Thanks,
Jim R.


Quisk Version 4.1.48 November 2019

 

I fixed some more problems with the Python3 version of Quisk. I added support for reading and writing the EEPROM in the HermesLite. Reading the EEPROM requires code version 68 or newer. The EEPROM settings are on the radio Hardware screen.

Re: Quisk on Python3

 

Hello Heikki and Group,

I am working on making Quisk compatible with both Python 2.7 and Python 3.x. It is available for testing on Linux because Linux comes with compilers, and it is easy for Linux users to make their own Python 3 version. For Windows I still have to make a binary release for each Quisk version. That means a new binary Quisk for Python 2.7 and 3.x in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. They will be available shortly.

Re: Quisk on Python3

 

Hi Sid et al,

In my previous message I was mostly referring to the WIN10 environment where I have two desktops up and running. In addition I have three desktops with Linux Mint 19.2 and I get a little bit confused sometimes with all these ... I installed Python 3.6 in WIN10 but in this case the QUISK failed during installation. Under Python 2.7 running OK.?

Previously I had installed QUISK in my Linux 19.2 and, for my surprise,? it seems to have Python 3.6 already preinstalled (right ???). Therefore I have to admit that at least in this very computer Linux version of QUISK 4.1.47 is running OK.? My apologies for the confusion !

I expect that Jim will keep us all informed about the developments and make the announcement once it is necessary to switch into Python 3.6, also in the WIN10 environment.

Hi Heikki,
There are quite a number of posts to this group dealing with the topic.

Which distro and version are you using and what build errors do you have?

There are python3 pre-reqs that must be installed and with them quisk-4.1.47 builds and works on recent Ubuntu x86_64 and Arm , openSUSE x86_64.

The one remaining quisk build problem that Jim will fix in the next version affects only my HiQSDR running Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS aarch64 on an ODROID-C2.
No problem with HL2 on x86_64 or aarch64.
73 ... Sid.

Hi Jim et al,

Is there any schedule planned to make the change from Python 2.7 => Python 3 in order to ensure that QUISK is working properly also in the future ? I did install Python 3.6 today which?went fine but I could not install QUISK in this new environment. Within Python 2.7 the latest QUISK is up and running.
Is this Python 3/QUISK activity something that works only in Linux currently ??? I did try in my oldish WIN10 computer ...

Re: Quisk on Python3

 

Hi Jim,
My HL2 is working fine now with quisk-4.1.47 on Mandriva Arch, last band recall etc okay. However when I start wsjtx the connection to receiver is not found and this error repeats on the terminal:-

Of course my python3 installation may have some issues!

Hi Jim,

As for the Radio Sound Output settings,The following error has occurred.
I am using Micron SDR receiver designed by Mr. David/N7DDC.

For Ver4.1.45
1. If "High Definition Audio Device" is set manually, Quisk will also start with a sound.
2. Quisk won't start when selecting "¥Ø¥Ã¥É¥Û¥ó (High Definition Audio
Device)" from the Radio Sound Output pull-down menu.

For Ver4.1.46
1. When set to "High Definition Audio Device", there is no sound but it starts up.
2. Quisk won't start when selecting "¥Ø¥Ã¥É¥Û¥ó (High Definition Audio
Device)" from the Radio Sound Output pull-down menu.

It seems that it doesn't start when a Japanese font enters.

Thanks, Leo/WH2Q 73.

Hello Graeme,

The new Quisk 4.1.47 should fix the problem of saving state on Python3. But old state will not come back. Only new state going forward is saved.

Re: Quisk on Python3

 

Hello Jim,

Quisk-4.4.47 is going beautifully on my Linux Mint 19.2 with Python3.6 Many thanks for fixing this so promptly and from my point of view Quisk is the most stable and best maintained PC console for a Linux platform.

Re: Audio problem with Quisk build 4.1.46

 

Hello Dave,

Please see if the new Quisk 4.1.47 fixes the problem. The new Quisk should also handle Unicode file names better. It is hard for me to test these features because all my sound device names are ASCII.

I have a simple SDR that uses an Si514 with I & Q opts that go into an external USB sound card and then into an RPi running Quisk. I can send you a block diagram or the ebook if you are interested.

Hi,
? As a relatively new person to SDR, I have a working SDR front end.? It has a Si5351 and I & Q outputs.I would like to interface to a Raspberry Pi3 or a (if possible) a STM32 demo board.? I'm assuming that a version of Quisk can be edited to work?? For starters, I would just like to decode the I & Q signals.. Can you point me in the right direction?
