Re: Patched BASE firmware with changed TX audio filter low cutoff frequency
#firmware
Thanks Georgy.
?
Based on your patches to Xiegu BASE firmware, tonight I wrote a simple Python script (attached) that should apply the corresponding changes to future (or older) Xiegu BB firmwares (unless they change their code significantly, of course).
?
The script can be run as follows:
./patch-160Hz.py <original decrypted BASE firmware> <patched decrypted BASE firmware>

When GPS is connected and has acquired a position fix, it would be nice to have the QTH automatically populated with the current Maidenhead locator.

Re: TX not working under CAT / digital modes
Sorry to hear.? Could an R1CBU 0.25.0 user report on your experience with this issue?? Did you experience FT8 TX issues that R1CBU 0.25 resolved?? Thanks for your input, and thanks to the developers of this firmware!? (I look forward to trying it). ? Tony KE1TLG ?

Dear Tony and John,
unfortunately none of the upgrades worked for me. I do not if I will be able to find the receipt from the relatives of the SK to check if the warranty is still valid and then I could give it a try.

Re: Factory reset... not working
I didnt set a root password, but I am also not the first owner of this radio. They may have changed it.
?
I am flashing it with 1.1.4 now. We will see what happens when I update that.?

Turning off the display has almost no effect on power consumption. Much more significant if BT/WiFi is disabled

Re: Factory reset... not working
" root, and password:123 will not allow me to login. Says denied."
I would bet that Factory Reset doesn't change/restore the user
passwords... Did you previously (intentionally) change the root
password? Maybe try that--

It happened to me too, but it got hot first and showed to be transmitting at 24 watts!? Luckily mine was under warranty and Radioddity sent a replacement
I know this is an old thread, but I am facing the same issues, no output power after first try for FT8.
I managed to made the first and only QSO, but then no transmission.
Afterwards, no output power in any mode with internal and handle microphone,
?
Everything is properly set in radio (or also in software for FT8, where there I have tx, click sound, tuning, tx etx properly working) but without any output power).
I have tried so far 1.1.6, 1.1.7 (the firmware that the radio came with from a SK, and the latest of September 2024). Any ideas/solutions software related? I am afraid that probably something is broken inside the transceiver. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Try short push of power button?
Is it possible to disable the display.
I hear many people complain about low battery life.
However a display is only really mandatory for initial tuning after that its less useful
Especially for digi modes where you tend to lock to a single frequency

Re: Factory reset... not working
If you changed the root password on the system - you have 2 variants. First - flash an old xiegu firmware. Old versions rewrite all files on the system and should reset the root password. Second - boot from SD card (using R1CBU firmware, for example), mount internal storage and remove the root password hash in the /etc/shadows ()
Problem I have, is that even after doing a factory reset, using userid: root, and password:123 will not allow me to login. Says denied.

Re: Standard FW CW decode?
The XIEGU FW CW decoder always works poorly. The decoder has no AFC and no automatic signal threshold. A decoder like that can never work well. Stupid programming... unfortunately. 73/6 Jens / HB9JOI +++ -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- From: Richard (K3RWN) via groups.io Sent: Saturday, October 5, 2024 4:53 PM To: [email protected]Subject: [xiegu-x6100] Standard FW CW decode?

I had the same problem with WSJT on older firmware (117/116?).? Interestingly, MSHV worked perfectly.? With the latest firmware downloaded from Radioddity (1.1.9/1.1.8) both programs work perfectly for me. ?

They are stored in your radio OS at /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
You're better off folowing the previous advice (via USB) or creating a new working wifi connection and then go in the radio and delete the connections that you don't want to keep.

Re: R1CBU firmware 0.25.0
LATE EDIT... About 30 seconds after posting this, I found the answer to my question — right in front of my eyes. So I no longer need an answer to this.
?
Quick question... and maybe a dumb one, so I'll ask forgiveness in advance... How do I turn off voice monitoring? In other words, when I key the mic, I hear my voice through the speaker — with howling feedback unless I turn the volume down quickly. I've searched through all the menus, but I'm clearly blind to something obvious that I can't seem to locate. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Factory reset... not working
As far as I remember, WiFi settings are not stored in the xparams.db (this table contains radio parameters), but within OS.
You can connect radio with usb cable using PuTTY (or screen under linux) and manage connections using nmcli command.
E.g.
List all saved connections - nmcli connection
Remove connection -? nmcli connection delete "NAME"
Instead of name you can copy and paste UUID (long sequence from 2nd columns, looks like 'b9d1df81-8b58-4e63-a67d-330527f8e022')
