thor25 is only available as alpha test mode
http://w1hkj.com/alpha/fldigi/readme.txt
suggestion - let’s try thor25 for traffic over next few weeks on PA NBEMS (3583 kHz at 0730 hr EST) and MidAtlantic nbems net (7068 kHz at 1000 hr est) on Sunday mornings
|
I am going to suggest that the PA NBEMS ?(Sunday 0730 hr EST on 3583 kHz) and the Mid-Atlantic NBEMS net (Sunday 1000 hr EST on 7068 kHz) test THOR25 as the traffic mode (we use FLMSG and FLAMP)
?
?
Our experience in early morning hours on 80m and mid-morning hours on 40m is that there are occasional deep fades (1 or 2 S units) which clobbers a second of data, hence the “bad file” designation of FLMSG
?
?
We have been using THOR32 and MFSK32 and both work well as long as the S/N is in the positive range.
I seem to get most (but not all) of the file if the S/N drops to -10dB.
?
I encourage folks on this IO group who can copy the PA or Mid-Atlantic NBEMS (we usually get checkins from PA/MD/DE and many from NY/NJ and a few from New England stations, as far south as VA/NC and west to WV and sometimes OH) to try THOR25
?
A few of us can remain on the net frequency (3583 kHz or 7068 kHz) after the nets end for further testing.

AndFlmsg -- volume setting drops unexpectedly when starting to transmit
John VK2ETA,?
?
Recently a new situation arose which is troublesome when transmitting from the wonderful AndFlmsg phone app.?
?
When I click "TX OVER RADIO," the media volume setting of the Android phone drops from 100% to about 10%. Although I can quickly reset the volume level to 100%, the beginning of the transmission occurs at too low a volume setting. This new situation started a few weeks ago.?
?
Perhaps there was a Samsung Android software update which now causes the phone media volume setting to battle the AndFlmsg output? I am looking for suggestions to block the automatic volume drop. Is there an Android setting I should change??
?
Thank you for all you do.?

RF spectra of the THOR modes caught on 80m SSB
?? RF SPECTRA of the THOR speeds on HF SSB
There is a new (alpha) THOR mode with the designation? THOR 25
We tried THOR25 after the PA NBEMS net? (Sunday 0730 hr on 3583.0
kHz) and it worked well as a traffic mode, compared
to THOR32 which we have been using (as well as MFSK32).
I wanted to compare the RF SPECTUM of each of the THOR
speeds, so I used a SDR? (RSP play hardware) and RSP Spectrum
Analyzer (software)
and set it on 3585.5 kHz center frequency with a very high
resolution bandwidth.
Transmitter was an Icom 7610 (built in sound card) with VFO set
to 3585.0 kHz
Here are the results, showing the? "peak" bandwidth of the THOR
speeds, as well as the BW at ? 30dB below the peak.
I think the present definition of "bandwidth" is? that width at?
-26dB below the peak, so? -30dB is close to that standard and easy
to see.
I think the other definition of BW is that signal containing 99%
(or was it 99.9%) of the energy.
THOR25 is still in testing (alpha) and does not yet have an
assigned TXID/RXID? identifier.
But you can manually go to OP MODE on top menu and select?
THOR25.
The goal of the 80m and 40m NBEMS nets is to use one mode for
taking check-ins (usually THOR22) and to send the call sign twice,
then the name, location (county if in Pa) and traffic/no traffic
or? QTC/QRU, and many send a?? S/N? of the net control.
THOR vs. MFSK
THOR modes are far easier to tune in on SSB compared to MFSK
modes.
I find if I mistune a MFSK32 signal by about 15 Hz? then I lose
all copy.
THOR can be badly mistuned and still get full print.
THOR also uses the "difference in pitch" from one tone to the
next tone as the character, not the absolute pitch.
There are other reasons I prefer THOR on HF NBEMS nets.
So take a look at the RF? spectra? (not the audio spectra) and
see for yourself the pros/cons of each speed.
As FLDIGI develops the THOR 25 mode, we will have more data to
report back to W1HKJ.

Hi David,
I'd like to understand SCAMP better.? Sometimes it works and
sometimes it doesn't.? I don't see any RsID mode change for
SCAMP.? Can you point me to a description of SCAMP?

Also, I noticed that the tool tip for Rx/Tx RsID EOT doesn't
seem correct (Config->IDs->RsID).

Yes. It works just great in WIndows: doesn't work in FreeBSD...yet!.

Hello, All:
I am using one of Kevin's DRA units with Fldigi, VARA-HF and Winlink Express in my daily
traffic handling work. So far, it has proven to be the best digital interface I have ever used.
I prefer to use the C-Media sound-chip's PTT function which is available with any of Kevin's
(Masters Communications) DRA units as it is faster, more reliable, and is easier to contrtol
than using VOX to key the transmitter.
Fldigi has that funtion built into it, but it is apparently, only available to users of Linux.
I have two computers here which can dual-boot either Win10, or FreeBSD ver 14.1. I much
prefer to use FreeBSD over Win10 or any of the many distros of Linux.
However, although I have "translated" the UDEV setup, listed in the PTT setup of Fldigi which
is required for Linux to the correct settings of the UDEV-equivalent in FreeBSD (DEVD), I
cannot get the C-Media PTT to work. My only solution to that issue here is to activate keying
by VOX in the DRA unit when using FreeBSD. Although VOX can be acrivated in the DRA
unit by moving one jumper, I am concerned that doing so will affect the use of PTT keying via
the C-Media chip in Win10.
So, my question to Dave and to anyone else here, what, exactly, are the commands in Fldigi
which activate the C-Media chip's PTT function in Linux? I am hoping that by learning this, I
MAY be able to "translate" those commands to FreeBSD.

You can also use hamlibs to key your radio and that's with both bsd & w$.

Hi David,

Thank you for your ongoing efforts!

I little observation since updating to this version. The
waterfall colour scheme seems no longer to be honoured after
changing it from default, closing and re-launching fldigi. The
correct pallete is opened on launch but the colour scheme
remains the default one.
In the example below blue1.pal is saved in the config and
displays/renders correctly at the time of configuring but on
restarting Fldigi, blue1.pal is loaded but the palette is not
blue1.pal
?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
