[hpsdr] Issue with Penelope

[Walter Holmes]

Thanks a ton Joe…

 

I was not able to use Penny in 1 or 2, but moved it to 5, it works a LOT better.

 

The audio out of Mercury stopped again, but the VAC would at least function, for a while, then it locked up again.

 

But your tip was extremely helpful, as I now just need to try a few more combinations. J

 

Thanks,

 

Walter/K5WH ...

I had same issue. Try Mercury in slot #6 (closest to pwr conn) then Ozy in #4, and Peny

in #1 or #2 .. makes a big difference on my Atlas buss. They are not all reacting the same.

I have Mercury working quite well, extremely nice sounding receiver…  Very well done guys. !!

 

I am having a problem with Penny though, that I hope is simple, as I have been through the docs multiple times, and can’t seem to work around this.

 

With Mercury and Janus on the Atlas board, the receiver seems to be just perfect.

 

However, if I plug Penny into the Atlas, when I Start up PowerSDR, I get a very high noise level, almost to the top, and the AF control for volume no longer functions, then it appears to lock up. Until I power down Atlas, and reload PowerSDR, and the problem happens each time Start is selected.

 

I have set the obvious, of selecting Penny for the 10Mhz clock, instead of Mercury, and also tried removing JP8 on Mercury to disable the 10mhz clock as well.

 

Something worth mentioning, is I see several error messages when Start is selected, like it can’t load some of the drivers. But it scrolls by so fast, I can’t see the details. I can’t seem to find a log anywhere of this history either. Is that detail captured someplace ?

 

I have Janus in slot 2, Penny in slot 3, Merc in slot 5 of Atlas.

 

Anyone have any ideas ?

 

Many thanks,

 

Walter/K5WH ...
