<DIV>I missed some of you guys and the list on the first post. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hi guys,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have seen a lot of postings of audio distortion on receive and have not
experienced that here,</DIV>
<DIV>however, the transmit signal is very rough. I have looked at it on another
SDR and also looked</DIV>
<DIV>at K5SO signal this morning, and both he and I confirm a very rough signal.
I am seeing LSB </DIV>
<DIV>and spurs when on USB, and also the reverse. It is very hard to describe,
but K5SO signal not </DIV>
<DIV>only sounded quite rough, but looked terrible on the panadapter. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know this is not much help, but I will try to do some definitive trouble
shooting today. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I don't want to be an alarmist, but I think it bears looking into. I am
reverting back to May</DIV>
<DIV>29 code to see if that cleans things up.</DIV>

<DIV>UPDATE</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Both Joe, K5SO, and I reverted back to KD5TFD 28 May, 2009 PowerSDR, but
did NOT </DIV>
<DIV>change FPGA code in Peny or Mercury and this seems to have cleared up the
distortion</DIV>
<DIV>problems. We confirm this on the air on 20 meters. Joe's signal cleaned up
nicely from </DIV>
<DIV>what it was with the latest code, and he reports my signal was cleaned up
as well.Now </DIV>
<DIV>oddly enough, I can still receive at 192k/2048 with no pops or distortion.
Should this be</DIV>
<DIV>that 192k/2048 works OK? As I recall, I could run at 192k/512 but not
2048!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The firmware version reads as follows:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Ozy FX2: 2009524</DIV>
<DIV>Ozy: 13</DIV>
<DIV>Mercury: 27</DIV>
<DIV>Penelope: 12</DIV>
