  • Suggestion to tweak default bandwidth settings [fixed in v1.454]

  • v1.456,458,459

    Short version: Old behavior restored so external apps, including those using kiwiclient et al, should work as before. But Kiwi web interface uses new changes as described below.

    v1.459 May 23, 2021

      Waterfall / spectrum:

        Fixed the CIC compensation added to the last release.


        Added waterfall interpolation URL parameter "wfi=N" e.g. kiwi:8073/?spec&wfi=13

        Also available as an API parameter on the waterfall web socket: "SET interp=N"

        Value N below. Add 10 to enable the CIC filter compensation.

         

        The value below answers the question: "What to do when multiple FFT values

        contribute to a single waterfall/spectrum pixel bin". In most cases the FFT

        is larger than the 1024 display pixels of the waterfall (or external application).

         

        0 take max (old and continuing server default for kiwiclient, external apps etc.)

        1 take min 

        2 take last 

        3 do drop sampling

        4 take cumulative moving average of values

        ...

        13 drop sampling + CIC compensation (new Kiwi browser interface default)

    v1.457,458 May 21, 2021

      Waterfall / spectrum:

        Fixed low-level post-FFT artifacts spotted by Marco's SuperSDR app. Thanks Marco!

        Added CIC filter compensation to better level spectrum at top end.

       

      FAX extension:

        Added GM-11F Sevastopol 7090.9 kHz per fabrys on Kiwi forum. Thanks fabrys!

    From the CHANGE_LOG file:

    v1.455,456 May 19, 2021

      Admin page

        Config tab: Added button to reset passband fields to default values.

        Connect tab: Improved proxy setup UI.


      Right-click menu: Added "snap to nearest" mode. Setting is remembered/restored per Kiwi

        visited just like freq/mode etc. Waterfall cursor differs when snap mode active.

        When snap is active the freq step keys (j/i, left/right arrow keys) are modified so

        the ctrl/alt-key steps the smallest amount and the unmodified key steps the same

        amount as the snap (e.g. 9/10 kHz on MW). Usually the unmodified key step the

        smallest amount.


      Changes to more easily support general (even non-SDR) FPGA development.

  • Preset HPF setting [fixed in v1.454]

    v1.453,454 May 14, 2021

      Added default passband adjustment to admin page, config tab.

        As each passband parameter field is changed (low, high, center, width) the other

          fields will be automatically adjusted. So if you know you want a USB filter

          with a low frequency of 300 Hz that is 3300 Hz wide just enter those two fields

          and the high and width values will be derived. An error message will appear if

          you attempt to define an invalid passband.

        The former "CW offset" field has been removed. To set your desired CW offset

          simply set the default passband center frequency of the CW/CWN mode passbands

          to the offset value. E.g. If you want to hear a 1000 Hz tone in the CW modes

          set the passbands to have a 1000 HZ center.

        After the passband is changed on the admin page, existing user connections will have

          to reload the page to get the new passband values.
