Re: R1CBU firmware 0.22.0
If you move the VFO up and down a bit then you will be able to move up the band.? Hope that helps for now.

Re: R1CBU firmware 0.22.0

Hello Georgy ,
?
just updated , but it is a big pitty :
All is working BUT ABSOLUTLY NO RF-Power OUTPUT in FT8 .
FT8 output is zero on all bands ...
?
And:
CW decoder needs much more AF input level , the input level is to much low
.

[Edited Message Follows]
[Reason: Insert a link to updated version]
New:
*
CW tuner - shows how accurately the radio is tuned to the correspondent's
frequency. I had to
slightly change the signal preprocessing for the CW decoder - now it works a
little differently.
*
Adjusting the bandwidth for filters with one knob. I did it for CW, but did not disable it
for other modes. For CW - the center of the filter always equals to the key
tone.
* Low and
High filters in CW mode change synchronously (central frequency remain
unchanged).
* Simple
level indicator in the recorder.Perhaps, will restyle/rework it in the
future.
* Time sync
in FT8 application. When
pressed, rounds the current time on the transceiver to the nearest FT8/FT4
slot. Usage - listen
to the broadcast, find a section of silence, press the button - the system time
will be updated. I guess it's simpler, than trying to adjust using
settings.
*
ADIF log for FT8. Call signs,
reports, QTH are saved. Checked import to hamlog.online, eqsl.cc,
qrz.com.
* Noise reduction and Noise blanket can be
assigned to f1/f2 headset
buttons
* Battery icon.
The charge level is calculated by
voltage
*
Charging
icon
* Support reading
transceiver ID via CAT. Should help solve the problem with some versions of
Hamlib
* Display peaks on
S-meter
?
Changed:
* FT8 app
now uses USB-D. The sound
from the microphone is not mixed into the transmission, and the transmission
does not break down after using the ATU.
* The output
power in the FT8 application match to the installed one. Looks like for internal signal sources the
changing output power only works as a limiter (ALC threshold adjustment).
* Auto level
for waterfall/spectrum is disabled during transmission. Fixed values ??are used during
transmission. After the
transmission is completed, the auto level is used again.
* The
buttons on the left (GEN, APP, etc.) “scroll through” the corresponding button
blocks of buttons below.
* Recording
and playback levels in settings app are now in decibel s (default 0, range from
-10 to +10).
* Switching
to digital modes and back - by long pressing the SSB button. Short
press for the LSB/USB or LSB-D/USB-D
switch.
* In digital
mode, the LSB-D/USB-D inscription changes color.
* Power
meter, SWR and ALC smoothing is disabled in digital modes.
Fixed:
* Band "jump" if the transceiver is in the lower range and is tuned
to the upper limit.
* Zooming spectrum doesn't affect
levels.
* When
changing band/A/B, the waterfall does not forget the data.
* Deleting a
single entry/message now clears the table.
* Fixed some bugs with
the FT8 application
* Freezes when using
headset buttons (possibly my mistake, but now fixed)
* Minor stability and
performance improvements
?
Also, I
raised the recording level in the audio mixer that comes with SDR on linux and
is used for recording, CW and FT8 decoding, etc. Initially the sound is very quiet - maybe this is
a problem with my transceiver.
?
Update via
patch - connect the card to the computer, and drop the tgz file into the DATA
disk (for those with Linux - into the root of the DATA partition).
The
transceiver will update the files on first boot.
?
UPDATE: I
fixed wrong behavior when band changing works only in down direction. Looks like
I can't attach new file here - so I uploaded it to the
?

Hi Richard,
?
When you are stuck on 160m you can use the white F-input
button and the numbers on the mike to enter an other frequency,
for example 28.1 Mhz. From there you can go downwards with the
Band button on the radio,

In previous versions of the firmware, when the bands
got stuck, I'd just spin the vfo dial manually to the next band,
and see if the band buttons started working.

I reverted some changes - download and copy patch

There are some boundary condition issue - seems, I need

It might be due to CW decoder in new firmware requires lower CW SNR setting. But anyway - thank you for your feedback.

Also GPS-Time update (with connected dongle) seems not more working .

After changing back with using FW 020.1 the band is full (!!!) and the CW

I don`t know what all comes bad in FW 0.22.0 ...

I catch such situation once when, for some reason, app stores wrong frequency for band. Could you share your `params.db` file from the DATA disk?

It should be an SD card with previous version of the R1CBU firmware (I guess, 0.20.0 should be fine). You can download it here -
