Hi Dave

I would assume the migration isn't complete yet and have also seen the very old alpha versions on the org site, but the old site contents by direct URL are still there. eg;

Currently at 2.0.05.93 - still available.

I don't have a URL for archived alphas sorry. (like where to find 2.0.05.85)

I think the only "new" alpha on the org site is fldigi 4.2.06.24

Hi.

After a bit of a hiatus with the computer here..? (I lost the ability to use a GUI desktop, as a "non-root user"!)

Anyway.?? I'm re-establishing things so I can once again work on Flrig and tweak a few things for my TS-870s, and continue to add a back-end for the IC-R9000. ? (At least my backup strategy worked!)

I had been working with the Flrig alpha, 2.0.05.75, and was in the process of migrating my work to 2.0.05.85 when I had the computer issues in late November 2024.? ? (long story to whoever wants it!? I still don't know what happened, or why, but I only recently got it flying straight and level again.)

Anyway.? I read that Dave (HKJ) migrated his website from a .com to a .org? And indeed, if you go to the .com site, there is a big message to go to the .org?? Not a problem.? But...?? Where are the up-to-date / latest sources for Flrig?

(I was wanting to check for later alpha release for Flrig, later than 2.0.05.85 that I have.)

The new site lists a release of 2.0.04, but there was a 2.0.05 released, and later alphas present after that.

The new site seems not to have any Flrig sources at?? ?? other than:-?? 1.3.22.14? !

What happened to the 2.0.05 release, and later alpha's ?

However, The links on Dave's .org site to sourceforge work, where at least the Flrig release v2.0.05 is present!

Anyway, "Confused of North Bucks UK" is now off to watch some mindless drivel on TV, as I've frazzled the faded grey cell a bit too much today.

Hi everyone,


I've just added XMLRPC support for my log program.



Thanks HA2OS for the example.

Hi.

Using Fldigi 4.2.06.07

Why is it, that when using PSK31 if one invokes the INFO1 and INFO2 signal report macro's, where you get a S/N and IMD value to report to the other op.

But, using the other faster (single channel/carrier) PSK modes, though you get a S/N value, the IMD report is replaced by "Phase" and a value.

The same is shown in the small readouts at the very bottom of the Fldigi UI.

First question:-??? Is this intentional?? (If so, why?)

Second question:-?? What does the "Phase" value relate to, and why that instead of IMD?

(A higher value seems to be shown for worse IMD sidebands, yes "many" from some stations!.)

I cannot find anything in the user manual about this.? Only links to Wikipedia that relate to phase encoding.

Someone put me out of my misery please! :-)

Best Regards.

Dave G0WBX.

Well it's summer here Robert, the right part of the year for thunderstorms and flooding. My brain has lots of loud banging noises and my feet/washing are very wet...

LSB/USB swap was one of the first things I checked, having seen a reverse Thor mode problem in the past. It did however look like DominoEX Micro on the waterfall. I only ever build from source and try to "break" any changes with the weird things I do with the FL suite!

Cheers Bob

Would be nice to be able to edit your post,

I stand self corrected, is in the Alpha version. My attention to detail seems to be going south for winter,..... summer, spring, fall. :-(

Robert

Here is the most recent code for RISD ID

\
ELEM2_(691, DOMINOEX_MICRO, MODE_DOMINOEXMICRO) \
ELEM2_(693, THOR_MICRO, MODE_THORMICRO) \

perhaps, the repository has not updated to the latest version.

Robert

One other thing make sure your radio in synced with the TX station, USB/LSB (radio), REV (ON/OFF, FLDIGI)

Robert

Seems to me that element 1 was misinterpreted leading to the missed ID of the signal. Record a signal on both these modes with RSID on. Play it back and see if the issue is still there. Use FLDIGI generate, playback to conduct test.

Noticed today a DominoEX Micro QSO was being recognised as THOR 25.

In fldigi 4.2.06.21 ./src/rsid/rsid_defs.cxx the same RSID code exists?

----
ELEM2_(691, THOR25, MODE_THOR25)??????????????? \
----
ELEM2_(691, DOMINOEX_MICRO, MODE_DOMINOEXMICRO) \
----

In the Wed Jan 1 20:39:59 2025 -0600 commit the remark
- assigned secondary RsID code 691 to THOR-25

Not sure how this all works but may be relevant.

Chromebooks are strange things, even when running their original OS!

A local school went that route a few years ago to save costs.? It bit them, as it was found few machines could access the network printers!?? The company that supplied them could not fix the issue.? AFAIK they bit the bullet and went back to the dark (Micro$oft) side at great expense..

The above came from a friend who used to work at that school at that time.? From what she said, I doubt I could have fixed the issue even if I knew my way around the cut down Linux OS that was installed on them.

Anyway...

There is also? YTree available.?? Very similar to the old DOS XTree.

The above as implemented in LMDE 6 (Linux Mint, without the Ubuntu parts.)

It it works OK, bit does have it's quirks.

Frankly, with most modern Linux distro's, the default gui based file explorer is more than good enough.? The only problem is that they all behave slightly different on each Linux distribution.

The default file manager/explorer "nemo" on LMDE.

The big advantage is that it recognises and honours all the rights and permissions on the system.

Each to their own, and everyone's "tastes" are different.? Use what works for you, but learn it inside-out, top to bottom etc, so you become fully conversant with it.? Especially any quirky bits!

Happy Days eh.
