I haven’t got that far.. It’s as the point in Balena when I select the downloaded firmware. It doesn’t seem to see it as an image file!

Hi Georgy ,

two sugestions I have for maybe next improvment :

1) If the spectrum will zoom also the waterfall should zoom with the same value .
2) The CW tune-helper now is working inverse , means in wrong directions .
Should changed., that if audio frequency goes down/lower also the spike should move to left side -
and if audio frequency goes up/higher the spike should move up to the right side .

73 / 76 ...

Very good , Georgy !

So far in FT8 the output now is 5 watts with FW 0.23.0-rc0 .

Many thanks for this !

?

Now , if You would please take a look about the bad sensitivity of the

CW-decoder and could solve that also ... then all is perfect .

Til tomorrow all others I will have tested too ... then I will report .

Re: R1CBU firmware 0.23.0 Download Source

 

I managed to update 20.1 to 23 by booting up to Linux Mint and then copying the .tgz file to the data partition.? It was a good thing that I kept a copy of linux mint on an sd card to boot to and having a usb sd card expanision unit to write to.
?
I am impressed with the cw decoder and the FT8 routine.? I haven't made a contact on 20m FT8 yet, but I can see the 5w transmitt on the antenna tuner and it's right on the money.??
?
Thank you everyone that contributed to helping me out and especially to G for his hard work.

It is appreciated.

Not on my PC.?? It does not show the Drive letters for the Partitions.?? I can see the DATA partition in the Disk Manager but I cannot assign it a letter.

My laptop works fine so I am really not going to put anymore effort into the PC, except for replacing it very soon.

This might be due to different version of base board firmware or hardware. Could you check your BB firmware version? Also - I have one idea about how to fix it. I might create updated version next week and will be appreciated if you check it.

And:
CW decoder needs much more AF input level , the input level is to much low .
I need some time to investigate and tuning. Will try to fix in the next version.

Hi Georgyi,
?
many thanks for your work. Here some preliminary comments:
?
- putting the .tgz into the DATA partition of the SD card was easy with my old Linux netbook.
- I like the new way to switch between the setup pages with the GEN/APP buttons.
- The new icons for battery and external voltage are nice.
- Updating time via an USB GPS module still works
- The new way to set filter width is very cool!
?
FT8 reception worked well, I did not test transmission yet - more time needed.
?
A hint for all who have problems with the new firmware: the X6100 seems to be very finicky when booting from a microSD card. I had the X6100 freeze randomly and other weird problems until I systematically tested different cards. Even cards from well-known manufacturers gave problems. I could not pinpoint any root cause, such as speed, size or make/fake, I simply tested until I had a card that ran without issues. I remember having similar experiences with embedded systems and SD cards at work.
?
Another tip: I use the SD card formatter from the SD Association, the manufacturer organisation for SD cards:
?
?
This should remove all old partitions, even hidden ones, and gives Rufus or Balena Etcher a clean slate to work with.
?
Again, thanks Oleg and Georgyi for your excellent work.
