[hpsdr] Introducing a "Path Illustrator" feature

[Scott Traurig]

Hi Joe,

First, let me congratulate and thank you for starting the development of
this fabulous and useful new feature! I am currently running v1.2.4.

Second, do you mind if I cross-post this to the Apach Labs forum (yahoo
group)?

Third, let me warn anyone who is using Avast anti-virus that they may have
problems running Joe's builds. I had to update my Avast, then restore the
executable from the quarantine and flag it as an exception to Avast.

OK, on to the feedback...Note that this is for a 100D with Rev 15/16 PA CCA.

- Problem: ADC enumeration starting at zero will be very confusing for many
people.

- Problem: no "bullets" or "dots" that show where lines actually connect
per normal schematic drawing guidelines. Without these it can be confusing
if lines are connected or are merely crossing.

- Comment: DDC2 is shown as connected to ADC0 and RX1 display. Same for
DDC3 and RX2 display. If that's how it really works that is great to learn
that! I thought DDC0 fed RX1 display and DDC1 fed RX2 display?

I have not exhaustively tested PI, but just checking it against my current
configuration I noted the following two issues:

- Problem: my system is configured for ADC1 to feed DDC1 (using PI
enumeration) and, per the comment above, I suppose DDC3 is also connected
to ADC1. However PI shows DDC3 connected to ADC0.

- Problem: muting on transmit for RX2 is not enabled in my configuration
but it is shown that way in PI.

Thank you again, Joe, for coming up with what will undoubtedly be a very
important improvement in the program!

73!
