There is a difference between 1-3.53.27 and 1-3.54. pi@raspberrypi-4:~ $ diff -r flrig-1.3.54/src/ flrig-1.3.53.27/src | grep cxx diff -r flrig-1.3.54/src/rigs/PowerSDR.cxx flrig-1.3.53.27/src/rigs/Po

I will dig into this, but there is a difference in behavior in displaying ALC between 1.3.53.xx and 1.3.54. 73, Harry W3YJ

Let me clarify this a bit. ALC continuously changes in 1.3.54 while transmitting a constant tone from either Fldigi or WSJT-X. This was not happening in 1.3.53 or any point releases. 73, Harry W3YJ

The bar graph for ALC in Flrig 1.3.54 constantly changes value while transmitting a constant audio tone. In 1.3.53 and all the point releases, ALC stayed constant. This is on Raspberry Pi 4 with an IC

I have retired from ARES. These documents are now very old and need to be revised. But it will be somebody else doing the re-write. Any volunteers? 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

If I can move in front of the curtain for a moment.... I wrote that chapter in the ARRL Public Service Handbook. Glad to hear it's being put to good use! 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

You can disable automatic MacOS updates so that you can update on your schedule. See the attached screenshot of System Preferences. 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

#macos

Built successfully under Ubuntu 20.04.01 LTS and I was able to control my IC-705. I will be doing some portable operating tomorrow. Thanks! 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

You're right...it's been a while since I've done NBEMS on VHF/UHF FM. Slightly lower audio level than voice is indeed the best. And a deviation meter is just not needed. 73, Harry W3YJ

My opinion as somebody who used to conduct a ton of NBEMS training... Getting the modulation perfectly set on VHF/UHF FM isn't worth the time and trouble. Adjust so that the transmitted NBEMS audio is

And adding even more to this... I've got a cheap laptop running an Intel Celeron N3150 CPU. Where would I look to see which 386/486 optimization to use? 73, Harry W3YJ

Thank you! I'll give this a try later today. 73, Harry W3YJ

Wow! Thanks! So, to optimize for Raspberry Pi 4, you need to do something like ./configure --enable-optimizations=rpi4 ? 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

I hate to wade into this because I'm now out of ARES/ACS/RACES but... Another issue with NTS is the insistence of using the ARRL Radiogram. This is an obsolete and ancient message form designed for CW

Thanks to everybody who worked on this. I now have full CW break-in on both my KX3 and IC-7300 when using a Winkeyer. This is a HUGE improvement for a CW op. 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ

Maybe I was harsh on you. That's what happens when you read a long email in a hurry. 73, Harry W3YJ

I know one top-gun contester who has a huge natural gas generator to keep his station going in case there's a power outage during a contest. He is also very active in local ARES activities. Don't be s

OK, thanks. I'll continue to use a Winkeyer connected via Fldigi but I'll keep this in mind if I ever have a need for it. 73, Harry W3YJ

Built and installed. My question is more about "why" than "what." If I am already using a K1EL Winkeyer connected to Fldigi to send CW, why would I want to use Flrig instead? 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ
