Re: Fldigi UI has me flummoxed

 

This depends on the rig and the rig control?software being used.

In general, the left hand field displays the mode of the rig IF this is handled by rg ctonrl software.

In general the right hand field would be filter width?IF filter width is controlled by the rig control software.

I think the issue is the sound card does not have a wide enough bandwidth.

Hi all,

Just a little quirk I noticed (and which caused me quite some cursing and despair):
When the FT-818 is in WFM mode (say, used as an ordinary FM radio receiver for your favourite FM broadcast station) and you try to connect it to flrig, the program crashes when trying to initialize the radio.
?
Workaround:
Simply switch the transceiver out of the WFM band (say, to any of the normal Ham radio bands, Shortwave or 2m/70cm) before trying to connect to flrig.

Thought you might want to know before running into the same issue.

Not me...not necessarily...the vid DOES explain very well what you wanted to say.
But for all the words and all the BOLD text, the conversation missed the target for me.

I can sorta see why digirig doesn't want to mention the words "RA Board"
Except they DO mention it, and that is what led to my initial confusion.

It's all written out in the Digirig Lite Setup Manual: <>
It doesna mention fldigi's setting "Rig Control > C-Media PTT"
and why you'd choose C-Media PTT when what you really want is to toggle GPIO3 on the chip. And explain why GPIO3 isn't special...GPIO pins are uncommitted digital signal pins. A lot of detail is not needed, but SOMETHING to help lay a base for learning. (I haven't looked into why pin 3 and not another. I assume some design decision by some folks somewhere....)

They DO mention "RA Board" and "CMedia GPIO3" in the PTT section, though.
Yes, they do...leading to my confusion about needing a board.


has one of the answers, but I needed to read 2 blocks to get the answer.
GPIO3 (RA-Board),
Each can be disabled via solder pads. &&&
PTT by VOX (enabled by default), PTT by GPIO3 (enabled by default)

I now understand this means that
1. Both PTT methods are enabled on the lite as shipped
2. Either method can be used without disabling the other ***
*** This is not stated. Nor is any reason given why one might want to disable one of them, if they can coexist without interfering with one another.

Perseus and WEFAX Decorers

 

Greetings,
?
I have an issue with the Perseus with FLDigi an BlackCat WEFAX (the only two decoders that I have.
?
Note the vertical interference marks showing on both decoders.? However on the Perseus, there is not such interference shown in the spectrum nor the waterfall view. Both picture attached to show the Perseus is not showing the interference
?
When I use my RSPdx and HF+ Discovery, this situation does NOT occur.? I am using the same antenna for all three radios.? I have tried the Perseus/decoders set with a VAC and also the signal to the PC speakers.
?
Does anyone have any possible ideas what might be causing the vertical interference lines?
?
By the way, I have tried powering the Perseus with a PSU from Jameco and with a USB cable.
?
One more thing:? I can not get the brightness and the other slide switches to work on the right-hand side next to the spectrum/waterfall screen.? I have never notices an issue before.
?
Regards,
George

Dumb question but on one of my computers I can't seem to expand upward the waterfall.
What setting in FLDIGI config file do move the waterfall up and down.

Re: MacBook OS and Failure to Transmit

 

Yeah.? Some people have a hard time understanding unless they can see it.
?
For those that complain about video quality, I'm neither a youtuber nor a maker of fine videos.? It's worth every penny they paid for it.
?
I can sorta see why digirig doesn't want to mention the words "RA Board" because it's a competing product (as your "Wait!" quote in prior email illustrated).? And, perhaps (I dunno fer sher), because digirig decided on the CMedia chipset to leverage the software support already established by that competing product.? Totally don't know about that, but kinda makes sense.
?
It's all written out in the Digirig Lite Setup Manual: ?

They DO mention "RA Board" and "CMedia GPIO3" in the PTT section, though.

Re: MacBook OS and Failure to Transmit

 

Very nice video. I'm sure that some will criticize the sometimes fuzzy image, but it succinctly provides exactly what I wanted to know. I have recommended it to digirig in my discussion with them.

Also, fldigi has the same setting in Rig Control > C-Media PTT. I just didn't understand how it all works, in part because the fldigi manual itself mentions the boards, leaving me with the impression that I needed the board.

I don't have the lite, so I can't test this. But I wonder why digirig isn't more clear about this for the newbie, rather than drag in the board issue. That should be a footnote, not a main point.

Thanks for taking the time. Way more than I could have done, and a top notch answer.

Yes, you can use the digirig lite without anything extra.? With a HT and I assume any other radio for which you have digirig cables.

You don't need any other board.? No RA Board.? No DRA.??

On your second sceenshot of the PTT settings under PTT on CAT Serial Port in the first dropdown box set that to None. On the CW Keyer under the config I have selected Use CAT and for Keyline I have DTR selected.
I can type in the window and it is sent and I can use the Macro buttons and they get sent also.

If you have been doing a lot of changes it might be helpful to go into the Flrig directory and delete the settings file.

Re: FLRIG 2.0.05.93 Rigcontrol with IC-7300

 

PTT is just a switch between sending and receiving. The method of key-down signal is selected depending on the rig.

Then I will have to set it on radio as Keyer(CW) RTS too, right? I thought FLDIGI used CI-V to control PTT and then sent the tone?

Re: MacBook OS and Failure to Transmit

 

Well, when I wrote, I was under the impression that if I bought a digirig lite, and I wanted to use GPIO3 control, I needed to buy an RA Board. I imagined...
Computer > RA board > digirig lite > HT

...but you say

No, no. Sorry for the confusion. If you already have a digirig, you don't need anything else.
Well, we need to be clear...I already own a digirig, and it works great w my HTs, so I know I don't need another board, but we are discussing **digirig lite** (confusing choice of product names)

If you have a Digirig Lite:
* For radios that have CAT control: There IS not serial port and thus no CAT control
* For radios without CAT control (HT's etc): Configure your digi mode software to use "RA Board" aka "Cmedia GPIO3" for PTT
No extra hardware required.
So you seem to be saying that I can use the digirig lite right out of the box, without an RA board. All I have to do is configure (fldigi, for example) to //think// I have the board, and it will work to toggle GPIO3?

Wait!

"I was hoping to have the Baofeng as a portable backup to my other Winlink setup with a Tait 8200 and RA board which works fine. I have now ordered a second RA board (made by a local ham) to use with the UV-5R (as other club members have had no issue getting this working with the UV-5R). The RA Board is a little bigger than the Digirig, but still portable and about the same price as the Digirig."

This writer seems to think a board is needed.

Re: MacBook OS and Failure to Transmit

 

?
So now I see that I need to buy another board...otherwise, the digirig lite is just another SignaLink to me (not that I have a problem with that...I use SL regularly). And "RA board" aware software must be used.?
?
No, no.? Sorry for the confusion.? If you already have a digirig, you don't need anything else.
?
If you have a regular digirig mobile:
  • For radios that have CAT control: Configure your digi mode software to use CAT for PTT
  • For radios without CAT control (HT's etc): Configure your digi mode software to use RTS on the COM port
If you have a Digirig Lite:
  • For radios that have CAT control:?There IS not serial port and thus no CAT control
  • For radios without CAT control (HT's etc):?Configure your digi mode software to use "RA Board" aka "Cmedia GPIO3" for PTT
?
If you have the Digirig DR-891, made specifically for the Yaesu FT-891 (I dont have one, but I assume the following is correct):
  • Configure your digi mode software to use CAT for PTT on your FT-891
  • For HT's or radios without CAT, You can probably configure your digi mode software to use "RA Board" aka "Cmedia GPIO3" for PTT
?
No extra hardware required.? Just different software settings for which digirig you have and whether or not your radio has CAT control or not..
?
Does that clear it up?
