.Receiver Noise Level
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- If it is not already highlighted in green, click the *Monitor*
|
|||
|
button to return to normal receive operation.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Be sure your transceiver is set to *USB* (or *USB Data*) mode.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Use the receiver gain controls and/or the computer's audio mixer
|
|||
|
controls to set the background noise level (scale at lower left of
|
|||
|
main window) to around 30 dB when no signals are present. You may
|
|||
|
find it best to reduce the RF gain control so as to minimize AGC
|
|||
|
action. If necessary you can also adjust the slider next to the dB
|
|||
|
scale, but note that the overall dynamic range will be best with this
|
|||
|
slider not too far from its mid-point.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
.Bandwidth and Frequency Setting
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- If your transceiver offers more than one bandwidth setting in USB
|
|||
|
mode, you should normally choose the widest one possible, up to about
|
|||
|
5 kHz. This choice has the desirable effect of allowing the *Wide
|
|||
|
Graph* (waterfall and 2D spectrum) to display the JT65 and JT9
|
|||
|
sub-bands simultaneously on most HF bands. Further details are
|
|||
|
provided in the <<TUTORIAL,Tutorial>> section.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- If you have only a standard SSB filter you won’t be able to display
|
|||
|
more than about 2.7 kHz bandwidth. Depending on the exact dial
|
|||
|
frequency setting, you can display the full sub-band generally used
|
|||
|
for one mode (JT65 or JT9) and part of the sub-band for the other
|
|||
|
mode.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Of course, you might prefer to concentrate on one mode at a time,
|
|||
|
setting your dial frequency to (say) 14.076 for JT65 or 14.078 for
|
|||
|
JT9. Present conventions have the nominal JT9 dial frequency 2 kHz
|
|||
|
higher than the JT65 dial frequency. A checkbox labeled *+2 kHz*,
|
|||
|
just below the *Band* selector, makes the appropriate frequency
|
|||
|
settings easy.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
.Transmitter Audio Level
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Click the *Tune* button on the main screen to switch the
|
|||
|
radio into transmit mode and generate a steady audio tone.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Listen to the generated audio tone using your radio’s *Monitor*
|
|||
|
facility. The transmitted tone should be perfectly smooth, with no
|
|||
|
clicks or glitches.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Open the computer’s audio mixer controls for output (``Playback'')
|
|||
|
devices and adjust the volume slider downward from its maximum until
|
|||
|
the RF output from your transmitter falls by around ten percent. This
|
|||
|
will be a good level for audio drive.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Alternatively, you can make the Tx audio level adjustment using the
|
|||
|
digital slider labeled *Pwr* at the right edge of the main window.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Toggle the *Tune* button once more to stop your test transmission.
