I tracked down a problem I was having in SSB transmit to the size of the decimate state vectors, FIR_dec3_EX_I_state, FIR_dec3_EX_Q_state.? If these are allocated to DMAMEM, the RF out on the RF board at times exhibits a raised skirt in both side bands.??I'm a novice in filter design and use, but it appears the FIR_dec3_EX_I_state and FIR_dec3_EX_Q_state are too small. ?Properly sized this doesn't happen.? The FIR_int3_EX_I_state and FIR_int3_EX_Q_state vectors appear to be too big, but this isn't a problem, except more memory is used.?
?
How to reproduce:
  • FIR_dec3_EX_I_state and FIR_dec3_EX_Q_state in DMAMEM, compile v66-9 with "Faster with LTO", PTT sometimes gives raise sideband skirt in signal out from RF board.
  • Also, compile v66-9 with "Smallest Code", PTT causes a crash.

Lynn, KU7Q, is using this in his CTR2-Dial Product. It's intended for use with remote operating apps that supports MIDI commands. It works great with Marcus Roskosch's Apple products apps.


Re: Problem running Arduino on Linux under Kubuntu / Ubuntu

 

Ken
? The suggestions from Jerry are good but they're not a permanent fix. The
files in /tmp are exactly that: temporary. They will be recreated as and when
needed the next time you boot the system.
? The problem probably lies in a configuration file buried deep in the darkest
depths of /etc, where whatever creates these files gets its config from.
? You're probably better of searching for similar problems on the Ubuntu forums
rather than here (and my apologies if anyone here does have an answer).

? Some people consider this DANGEROUS but I would try running the command as root to see if it makes any difference. But you do so at your own risk.

? And a hint for those not used to using the Linux terminal and command line:
Use "tab" completion to make entering commands, file names etc easier.
So instead of typing the whole of the
? "sudo ls -l /tmpo/.mount_arduinIn8mwB/chrome-sandbox" command just do
? ?sudo ls -l /tmp/.mo<tab key>
If it does nothing then either:
? it's got more than 1 possible completion so give it 2 <tabs> and it will
? ? show you the possibilities OR
? there's no ".mo" to comple
?
? It looks to me like the last six characters in .mount_arduinIn8mwB are
randomly generated each time you run the command, so the above hint should
make life easier.

M5Stack Dial - ESP32-S3 Smart Rotary Knob

 

By way of I was just looking at this
?
With my limited programming skills it would be a coin toss if it ended up on the shelf of shame or in something useful but in the right hands this could be interesting, assuming it isn't too noisy.

Muddy Audio

 

I should clarify that the "muddy audio" problem is not new with this version.
The last version I was using had it also.

Re: T41 Hilbert Filter Design

 

Strange, both of my builds V10 and V12 have always received excellent audio reports. I have used several cheap (RS) elements in home made enclosures.
Did you use the dedicated Mic ground?

Re: Problem running Arduino on Linux under Kubuntu / Ubuntu

 

except that the file mentioned doesn't actually exist!

I solved the problem by downloading the zip file containing a conventional binary image.? Still have to set chown root and permissions though. ?? You can also just run the appimage with --no-sandbox.?? However that might be less secure!

Screenshot of the code?? The code is available on my GitHub in the file .? It's over 500 lines so I'm not sure if a screenshot is useful.? Perhaps a scroll box?
?
Or do you mean a photo of the radio in that mode.? There's not much to that photo (see below) but if you can handle a video, I can send a short clip demonstrating the memory keyer and keyboard entry (just a CQ with my call sign).

Re: T41 Web site update

 

The design stuff would be a whole page on its own. I may add that over time. I would have to do it with a lot of context added so it makes sense.
Good idea.

You've put together a great site.? Thanks.? I especially like the performance pages.? Any design details that didn't make it into the book would also be helpful from a historical perspective.

A note on the Gallery photos.? In the sixth row, first image, you've included a photo of my build of the CW Messenger, a project from your and Jack's Microcontroller project book.? No problem including the photo, but it's not T41 related.? In fact, I ported a version of that software into my T41 so my CW Mesenger now sits mostly idle.

T41 Web site update

 

The T41 Information site is live at and we are getting a lot of traffic. So far, just since yesterday at noon, we have gotten over 400 visits and more than 1200 page views.
I just added a new photo gallery of images gleaned from this site and other places. If you want to have your rig featured on the User page, send me a photo and short paragraph describing your experience.
Send to
