  • Thanks John @jks , but I don't get it: How do I know, from the client side, what's the offset freq value? In the sound web socket stream there is nothing about it. Jim, thanks for the crash report but I don't know the context... did you see that hap…
  • I don't see anything related to the downconverter frequency in the Kiwi preamble: bytearray(b'MSG is_multi_core') bytearray(b'MSG rx_chans=4') bytearray(b'MSG chan_no_pwd=0') bytearray(b'MSG chan_no_pwd_true=0') bytearray(b'MSG max_camp=4') bytearra…
  • You basically would like a frequency offset?
  • You may use a threshold of about -80dBm or even -70 and forget about it. At night on the lower bands I may go up to -50dBm, but you can achieve that in one second. The reality is that setting a threshold of -130dBm or so just makes you listen to ve…
  • Hi Tonda, thanks for the test. At this point I haven't implemented the IQ audio yet. I don't think it would be too difficult, I just didn't need it. I'll keep you updated if I do. In the meantime I've added tons of new stuff and fixed several bugs, …
  • Hi everybody, I'm continuing to improve the software at a quite fast pace. Has any of you tried the CAT connection with a real transceiver? I'm really interested to know how it works with others radios! I have just the TS-590 here... Now that there …
  • Thanks Richard and Martin! It's a pleasure to see that it can be useful at least for a few people. marco
  • Martin, the DX cluster accumulates spots starting from an empty list. DX spots appear only when zoomed in. If you go to 20m CW or SSB with a span of about in about 1 minute you should be seeing spots being added. This is for me on 40m with about 500…
  • I think you're probably missing the pretty Mono font I have. pygame.freetype.get_fonts() lists all available fonts on your machine... The font that gets actually used on mine is: 'Bitstream Vera Sans Mono'
  • Hi Ben, thanks for the useful feedback. If you run this command within a python shell: import pygame.freetype pygame.freetype.get_version() What version do you get? I have 2.11 here with Manjaro. But are you running supersdr under that Raspberry Pi?…
  • OK, I'll try to recap the main points here: TUNING: LEFT/RIGHT keys tune by -/+1 khz, when very zoomed in, they tune by 100 Hz, when you also press SHIFT the tuning step is 10X. You may also point and click on any signal with the mouse. Just use the…
  • Jim, thanks for the report, my bad. I made a late minute change to cleanup the code and a bug slipped in. I just uploaded a new version (only the source code, the windows exe will be remade shortly). Pekka, you may change the bandwidth with the up a…
  • Great! Martin, now you have to run hamlib and connect CAT to a real radio ;)
  • Martin, I don't use Windows, a friend of mine created the executable, but in theory you should be able to run it from the powershell (it should be something similar to Linux I guess...). Beware that in the previous commands I wrote for you, you shou…
  • Martin, is the kiwisdr free or all of its channels are busy? Anyway, if you want to start it with a different kiwisdr, just run it from the command line with something like: supersdr.py -s oh5kq.ddns.net -p 8076 if your local kiwi needs a password u…
  • Stu, could you test it with CAT with some radio? Anyway, when working with remote/laggy kiwis you could use the command line option -b to increase the buffer size, but it increases lag of course.
  • but after entering the IP:port did it work?
  • Martin, with the executable you don't need any library or anything Python related. I just tried it on a windows pc without anything on it and it should ask you the alternative address:port
  • Hi Martin, it sounds like you're using an old version. Are you sure that you downloaded this one: https://github.com/mcogoni/supersdr/releases/download/v3.0beta/WinSuperSDR.zip It defaults to connect to your local kiwisdr.local as explained in the R…
  • Ops, I think I made a mistake choosing the category of my post as "software relase info" that could be reserved for the official software by John. John if this a problem, feel free to edit the category to general chat or whatever. Sorry!
  • Hi! Just hover the mouse over the blue HELP text on the bottom right. That should cover most shortcuts. I still have to make a video in english. If you have doubts, just ask ;)
  • remove your current scipy version installed via apt, then: sudo apt update sudo apt install python3-pip pip install scipy

  • You're using an older version of Scipy apparently. I'm using 1.6.0 here. From what I read in the official docs, the padtype argument was added in Scipy ver 1.4.0. Always keep up to date your Python stuff with pip and avoid using the obsolete distrib…

  • Something like this: http://kiwi.ip.address:8073/?abuf=0.25,0.25 But if you need really short latency, use SuperSDR: https://github.com/mcogoni/supersdr 73, marco / IS0KYB
  • You just have to wait for the next release then :-D

  • Hey Jim, the code is ready and I tested it briefly on 1180 on your Kiwi, now it's HIFI :-) You can find it in the dev branch. Apparently I didn't break anything for normal kiwis, but please let me know if you see strange stuff. It took longer than I…

  • Something strange is happening when you set your kiwi to 20khz 3ch. Your kiwi works but with wrong audio pitch, I have to detect and change the conversion ratio to sound card rate. As soon as I fix it I'll tell you Jim. Thanks for the report. marco

  • The current dev branch on github is much improved, but I'm still testing it before merging it into the main branch. Comments are welcome! https://github.com/mcogoni/supersdr/tree/dev
    in SuperSDR Comment by marcogoni May 2021
  • So it works? Please send me the kiwi ip:port and frequency, if the kiwi is on GPS exact freq, it shouldn't be off freq... Please note that I didn't implement the MW 9kHz step, so you should tune by using the left/right arrows. If you need more accur…

  • Hi, I just configured mine for 3 channels 20khz and it works perfectly, could you please report what kind of error showed up? What version are you using? and which OS? Thanks!
