Re: Just unboxed, no receive

 

What's a "network cable?"
Re: Just unboxed, no receive

 

Looks like you may be in the upgrade screen.? Mine has an odd thing with the network cable. If it's plugged in I have no receive.?
Re: Just unboxed, no receive

 

Werden die beiden Eintr?ge angezeigt? Ist keinerlei Empfang da, auch nicht der? Wasserfall zu sehen ? Geht senden ?

Just unboxed, no receive

 

In my experience, sometimes the UI board boots up, but the radio board doesn't. When you turn on the radio, press and hold the power button for a long second. You will usually hear 2 clicks as both boards start up.

Just got one today. Have run into an immediate no receive issue. Have tried multiple antennas with no success. I haven't attempted Tx. Is there a thread on here about trouble shooting this? I don't have test equipment. Have included a pic of the installed firmware version.

Many thanks in Advance

Correction: "System Info" must show 2 entries. On my X6100: APP V1.1.9, BASE V1.1.8

This Display must show two entries. One for the Baseband-Unit and one for the Display-Unit. Make a new Update from the SD-Card

Re: Modified BASE firmware - rev2

 

Hi Georgy

Which file did you "bake" the adaptive notch filter into? Was it a v1.1.6/v1.1.8 base file or v2.9.2. I am not sure which one I should load to get this feature.
Many thanks.

Just baked firmware with an adaptive notch filter -
I should check and, perhaps, tune some parameters, but seems it works.
?
Just not sure, how to make it available for OEM GUI application. I guess, that total replacement of the manual DNF is not a good idea.
I can, for example, turn it on, if DNF is turned on and center frequency is 100. What do you think?

Re: Low "reception" issue

 

Thanks wicknix! I copied Georgy's newest modified BASE 1.1.6 over to /usr/firmware and "downgraded". Things are working better now. You guys are good.
Re: Low "reception" issue

 

Glad to help, and it¡¯s good to know that you also gained improved RX by using BASE 1.1.6.?
Re: Low "reception" issue

 

@wicknix - Thanks for the help! With the 1.1.6 BASE, my s-unit ¡°comparison¡± seems much closer between the x6100 and the g90 now.? I'm actually starting to think that this was probably an ¡°issue¡± all along, and I just started to notice more.? I'll have to do more testing, but reception without the ¡°PRE¡± turned on seems much better.? Also, thanks for the tip about running then newer APP with the old BASE.? The UI just looks better.
Re: Low "reception" issue

@John - What i did was installed Xiegu¡¯s latest 1.1.8/1.1.9, then i downloaded Georgy¡¯s original modified 1.1.6 base, ssh¡¯d in to the x6100 and copied the file over to /usr/firmware. Then i just selected 1.1.6 from the list and did the ¡°upgrade¡± per usual. It will leave the 1.1.9 APP alone and just reinstall/downgrade the BASE.

Cheers

Re: Low "reception" issue

 

I have two x6100s. Regardless of whether I use PRE/ATT, the difference between the devices is always 2-3 S-levels. The RF gain is 100 on both devices. The firmware is also the same. Unfortunately, I can't reinstall the firmware on the inferior device because the SD card slot is defective

Double checked RF Gain and it is at 100, which is where I always run it (which I thought was odd).? I was running App 1.1.9/ Base 1.1.8 when I noticed issues, but also tried App 1.1.8/Base 1.1.7 to see if there is any difference.? Another thing to note if it matters, ever since owning this radio (Sept 2024) I have generally always used the "PRE" (pre-amp I think) in order to hear/bring in signals.? Is this normal?

Re: Low "reception" issue

 

@wicknix - So, to mix versions, would one install an older version, say APP-1.1.7 / BASE-1.1.6, boot the radio, use the OS to flash the older baseband and then just go back an install the newer "1.1.9" APP leaving the older BASE as is?
Re: Low "reception" issue

 

I noticed RX was lower on BASE 1.1.7 and BASE 1.1.8 also, which is why i prefer base 1.1.6 (and because 1.1.6¡¯s NR is superior compared to other versions). It RX¡¯s so well i have to turn the RF gain down to about 50-55 for normal use. I do however use APP 1.1.9 (yes you can mix them) for the new UI features of 1.1.9. Might be worth trying and see if you notice a massive RX increase like i did.
