Robby,

Thanks for the response, glad to know that I am trying hard enough to find the information (and that I haven't gone blind)

Also, I'm enjoying the heck out of the build and looking forward to completion and use of the radio!

Sorry, but you are not trying very hard, in the paragraph labelled
"Design Change and New PCB Layout" the second paragraph from the top
it clearly states about 27 gauge wire and that it should be used in
L1 through L12 in the Band Pass stage.

The email just below mine states the same thing, twice for emphasis,
but you must read the page and not skim over it.

Kevin,

Did you follow the link to the email in the Yahoo Groups?

Here is the content:
Good Afternoon All,

Recently we at used up our supply of RX Ensemble II circuit boards with the date 6/15/10 printed on the board. The 6/15/10 version of the RX Ensemble II circuit board had the layout issue for T1 and T2 where either the primary winding leads or the secondary winding leads of each transformer needed to be crossed for best operation of the receiver.

The T1/T2 layout issue has now been corrected with the circuit boards to be supplied in the RX Ensemble II kit from this date forward. The date on the new board is 6/20/13.

One additional change in the RX Ensemble II kit materials has been made where thirty-six feet of #27 AWG wire along with four feet of #30 AWG wire are now supplied in the kit. The heaver gage #27 wire is for winding L1 through L12 so that the inductors will stand upright in a better way on the finished receiver board. The #30 lighter gage wire is still needed for winding T1 through T3 transformers. The bill of materials and the schematic pages on our website have been updated to include these changes.

Thanks very much for your kit orders and I always hope people are having fun with the kits and find them useful.

Thanks and 73,
Tony KB9YIG

This clearly describes the usage of the #27 wire.

Milt,
W8NUE

Looking at this, running as root should be OK as root has access to everything. Also user "ubuntu" seems to be owner of pulseaudio.

Regarding adding the user to the groups

Tx Switch?

 

Hello,
I'm new here and I've been reading the various posts and trying to search for info about a tx switch to use with? the same antenna that I transmit on but could not find any info here. (I really dislike the new groups format)
I just received my built Rx Ensemble II and would appreciate any guidance as to what you folks are using.
I did find a tx switch the mfj-1708 but I don't really want to spend $80 if there's a better and more economical solution.
My transceiver is the TS-2000 and I also have the AL-80B amp but don't necessarily have to use it with the Ensemble II.

Thank you for your advice.

Well guys, I took the easy way out and installed the Si570 on the board. Installed the drivers using the New All in One Driver Installer, then CFGSR. Connected the scope to the hairpin lead of R9 as per the procedure and sure enough the output is 4X the L.O. Here's hoping the Si570 never needs to be removed...
Brian,

As you know this dates back..
There was a batch of Si570s that were faulty.
Basically no output. So if yours stops working entirely then that might be a faulty one.
I cannot remember, but I think the faulty ones just did not work so yours is probably good.

Re: ensemble RX/TX and Genesis SDR program

 

Brian,
Yes it works very well with all my softrock, QRP2000 controlled and Peaberry radios. ?I have not experienced the issue you are having. ?But make sure you have the latest update installed. ?Look here for setup information. ?
If you can send screen shot of the Hardware config page that would be helpful.

ensemble RX/TX and Genesis SDR program

 

will the ensemble rx/tx work using the Genesis SDR program if so please tell me how. I can get it to sort of work but the frequency keeps changing when going from tx/rx seems to jump about 5Khz?. The ensemble works fine on HDSDR but I would like to make use of the features Genesis SDR.

Yes! I receive now with the Ensemble II.
I get the following message however, but seems to work fine:

The only PowerSDR that runs the Softrock correctly is the v2.4.4 one built by Christos that has a modified set of components. Is that the one you are running?

Here is the download location and the instructions on how to install/modify it...

Each of these have the .dll you're looking for,





See the last lines of the page in the last link for instructions about moving the dll to the Winrad / HDSDR location.

When I click on ExtIO it says no hardware specific ExtIO-DLL found. So where would I find this and put it in, I put all sdr programs on my computer trying to get this to work, I've followed all directions in each step as well, remember this is one I had Tony build for 20,30,40 on powersdr it's stuck on 40m and won't let me go to 20,30 and I can't switch through the bands

On HDSDR, click on ExtIO and you will see the PE0FKO control utility for the Si570.? First of all: is the "virtual LED" on the lower left corner green or dull red?? If? it is not green HDSDR is not controlling the synthesizer and it is running on the "parking" frequency.

HI Thank you for replying.
Im using HDSDR and SDR#.
I can see a screen full of rtty psk cw etc. I have ported the audio into HRD and can read the data modes. I can move around in HDSDR or SDR# what i can see on the screen but i cannot move out of the band to receive any other band than the segment on the screen.
