BRAVO ZULU Jim! (I enjoy my HL2 with Quisk and in a near future the IOBoard I just received from Makersfab)

ARRL Technical Innovation Award.? Here's a passage from the minutes of
their meeting:

It's not the first time, either ... a little internet research showed he
was recognized with a similar award in 2012:



Congratulations, Jim, with many thanks!!

Re: Quisk install errors

 
Edited

I had the same problem with pillow when installing previous versions of wxpython. The latest version of pillow is always used automatically. The problem is that the latest version of pillow does not work with previous versions of wxpython. You need to select one of the previous versions of pillow - https://pypi.org/project/Pillow/#history and install it yourself using pip.

I have been trying to install Quisk and everything except the Upgrade wxpython seems to have a issue. this is what I am getting
do I need to have something else installed in the background?

Hello Joakim,

I will make the WSJT rig name editable on the configuration screen in the next release.

Thanks JIm, I assumed RX_band was to be set = TX_band by the SDR app in transverter situations.? I think that will eventually happen but not there yet.? For now I simply set RX_band = TX_band just before the switch section so it is an easy workaround.?

?

I do use the same rig for HF on the ANT input, my Xvtr is Split IF on the Aux RF and RF1 connections.? My band added logic takes care of switching J9/J10 but I still need the SDR app to disable the amp and HL2 TR relay per band (or at least HF vs VHF+).?? The only way I know how to do that today is via the SDR app features (different or missing in each app today) or maybe though the hermeslite.py script.? Operating the script manually is error prone and inefficient.? I can likely slip in some logic to the hermeslite.py that Quisk uses like I did for the 10MHz clock input.?? Thetis supports ?XVTR per band PA Disable already so halfway there.

Hello Mike,

Please see the answer on the HL2 group. The short answer is to modify your main.c to remove the HF specific code.

Feature Request: Add option for Disable PA on each Xvtr Band

 

I connect my HL2 to and HF antenna with PA enabled on the ANT jack and VHF transverter(s) using split IF at 28Mhz at about 0dBm using the new IOBoard Aux Rx and RF1 for the output. The PA needs to be disabled to make it work right on VHF.? The IO board with my customized firmware is handling the J9/J10 switch and band decoder output OK.??

I can disable it (and have Disable T/R in low power = true) in the Config menu but it would nice if it was automatically configured on Xvtr band change for seamless operation.? ?An example of this is the Thetis XVTR setup.? ?Not all transverters use low power IF drive so controlling it per band is most effective.? ?Along with that , per band, is option to set drive level as each can be different.

Regards,

Re: Quisk Version 4.2.23

 

I am using this version on a HL2 + IOBoard with a multiband transverter and it appears the RX frequency is not sent out in Quisk 4.2.23.?

When I went to TX then I got a valid band code and my Xvtr would shift to the correct band.? To work around this I modified my IO board firmware to make Rx_band = Tx_band for now.? Thetis HL2 is also not sending any of the 12 possbile RX freqs yet so this mod works for both apps.

Re: hiqsdr Schematics

 

Maybe the 'WayBackMachine' aka the internet archive can help?

Re: Quisk Version 4.1.88 October 2021

 

can you change the "--rig-name quisk" to something like "--rig-name radioa" and "--rig-name radiob" for different Linux (ubuntu) users ?
I need this for my antenna SNR comparision setup
Regards Joakim
wsjtx ---rig-name=quisk

 

Hello
Is it possible to change this.
in my Ubuntu the field is grayed and i can change the rigname so that wsjtx cant run a 2'nd instance (with another rig name)

I have searched the configuration files, tried to add option ti wsjtx command line and other things? - still no joy.

Thank you for a very nice program, im trying to build a antanne comparision dual reciever based on wsjtx SNR reports.?
