At the back end of last week I set Faros off and running to listen into the various NCDXF beacons.
All is not well
The set up of rig, Signalink, sound card (either as a usb or internal) is inconsistent at best and not hearing anything at all at worst. After a few days of twiddling and mucking about I am at a loss. I've never really got the thing going with my ft817 and frankly don't want to spend a whole heap of time trying to sort it out. Perhaps I'll go back to it once I've had a chance to think about it a bit more.
Here's what's stumping me:
Computer - More powerful than the one it used to run off 24/. Both internal and usb sound cards have failed to get any signals. in fact the usb sound card made the software act very oddly. Audio in directly from the rig...no difference. Adjusting the volume makes no observable difference.
Rig - CAT OK, timing OK, audio out OK
The software is reporting 100% QSB which I don't recall from the last set up so I can only surmise that it doesn't like the two options for the sound card. Time to take a break from it.
