Signalink audio level changes with frequency

 

Hi there. When I operate digital modes in FLDigi using my Signalink USB, why does the audio level change when frequency is changed? I'll operate, say, PSK31 on my Yaesu FT-920 at the lower end of the passband at a set audio level. Then, when I change to the higher end of the passband, my audio level will be too high, forcing me to lower it so as not to splatter. When I change back to the lower end of the passband and transmit, my audio level is in the mud, forcing me to turn the audio up. Why is that?

All: I am looking for any information on the minimum required SNR for different types of THOR.? Has anyone actually run tests to investigate this?

Re: fldigi 4.2.06.07 posted at

 

Dave,
?
I installed fldigi-4.2.06.07_setup.exe on Windows 10 tonight (my fldigi.files directory was from version 4.2.05.24) and I noticed that a few of the colors were changed back to the default settings, and also that TxID and Video ID were not working. See below.
?
Earlier today I compiled 4.2.06.07 on Linux Mint 22 and did not have these same issues with the colors defaulting, but I did not do a 'make install' I just copied the new binary to /usr/local/bin manually. I didn't think to check TxID or Video ID.
?
-----
?
Frequency Display - BG Color and Digit Color were changed back to the default; Font and Font size were not changed.
?
S-meter - BG Color and Scale Color were changed back to the default; unsure about Meter Color, I don't think I normally change that from the default.
?
PWR-Meter - same as S-meter
?
Receive Text - RX bkgnd color and Rx font color were changed back to the default; Font and Font size were not changed.
?
Transmit Text - same as Receive Text
?
TxID - SCAMP modes (I tried all six) are not sending TxID tones when the TxID button is enabled, nor when turning it on/off via a macro.?
?
? <TXRSID:on><TX>
? CQ CQ CQ de <MYCALL> <MYCALL> <MYCALL> CQ?
? <RX><@TXRSID:off>
?
I verified that all of the SCAMP modes are enabled in the Config -> IDs -> RsID -> Transmit modes dialog.
?
Video ID - also not working with SCAMP (I tried 2 or 3 modes); all SCAMP modes are enabled in the Video ID Modes dialog.
?
I verified that TxID and Video ID are working with THOR11 to confirm that I had the settings correct.
?
-----
?
Everything else seemed to carry over from the previous version, at least the things that I can remember that I changed from the defaults - other RsID settings, Modem settings, PSK Reporter, Save Parameters, Sweet Spot, Operator-Station, Rig Control, Soundcard, UI and Waterfall.
?
I made a copy of fldigi.files before making any config changes, in case you want to see any files from there.
?
Cheers,

Re: fldigi and the Mac

Re: RxID Narrow Versus Wide

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Felix,

This ¡°change¡± (if there was one) was likely documented in an updates note when it was introduced and has not made the help files.

Not at the computer just now but IIRC:

You should be able to right mouse click on the RxID indicator at the top of the receive pane and select the RxID mode you want, then select save settings from the menu and it will always start in the mode you want by default - off, ?narrow, or wide.

I prefer the narrow mode for net specific use and use the wide mode only for times I am looking for a potential QSO or trying to ID a signal I don¡¯t readily recognize. Mostly I keep it off.?

Since you have been using fldigi a while you already know that both modes are useful. The colors (and the narrow band bars) tell you which part of the audio band fldigi listens to for RxID mode reports.

You can use setting in the menu (misc tab I think) to tell fldigi whether to jump to a TxID signal or just report it on the receive pane.

Hope that helps.

I have been using Fldigi for quite a while. I always use RxID and it is always green. However, all of a sudden the RxID is now maroon. I checked the colors menu and found there is a RxID narrow button that is green and a RxID wide button that is maroon. Why did RxID on the main screen start turning on in the wide mode? I don't know the difference between the narrow and wide modes. I read the help file and it says nothing about this issue. Tnx for the help!

Assuming you are using WIndows Defender, try this: first go to SETTINGS, then click on
UPDATE AND SECURITY, then WINDOWS SECURITY, then VIRUS AND THREAT
PROTECTION, then FIREWALL AND NETWORK PROTECTION, then, down low on that
page, "Allow an app through firewall",

On the page that opens, click on "CHANGE SETTINGS", then ALLOW ANOTHER APP.and
follow the remaining prompts.

Ordinarily, when this occures in MY systems, I get a BLUE background which contains
different wording than you are seeing with your yellowish background. Perhaps your antivirus
is giving you that warning, and not anything within Windows' security settings.

If that is the case, you will have to ignore ALL I have said above, and go into the settings of
your antivirus program and add an "Allowed App".

Fill us in on some details (operating system, antivirus if any, etc.) and we can help you.

at the bottom of the message from defender, try clicking on the "don't run" button and it may allow you to run the program.? I get that sometimes on new versions of programs and I trust my Norton to do a better job than windows

Yes. That is a very common issue but is what we call a "false positive".

To fix it you, or someone more familiar with this issue, will have to "tell" Windows Defender to allow it to proceed.

Re: callsign lookup in logging program #fldigi #Log4om

Mike Black
 

I think this is a problem with FLDigi and not Log4OM.

I just tested and Log4OM is allowing TCP connections on port 7362 but FLDigi is not attempting to connect to it or any other of the services in that tab.

I can confirm that it also does not work for me with the latest version of Log4OM.

Thanks for this help. I was able to get fldigi to log into Log4om2 I just don't get the lookup when you start a qso like wsjt-x does or fldigi does in n3fjp or dxlabs.?

I could not connect to server as I didn't understand what to fill in. I am still reading to get ideas.?
