Heck yeah Ape. Glad you enjoyed the radio and were able to make a great informative video about the now impossible to get sdr.

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

Thanks again for sending it over 👍

It’s now on a group buy with makerfabs if you’re still looking

This is the future of radio. Now we just need some more open source, all mode, 40 mhz to 6 ghz SDR radios that start off at 5W output. If such a thing existed, and could do 5W at 6 meters, and maybe trailed off to 1W at 3ghz, they'll be flying off the shelf.

Great video as always Ape. Looks well built and schmick…. I notice you still have those spurs on 40m 😉 Look forward to more from you mate 👍

Yep @ Spurs. Thanks for checking out the video @ Hayden 👍

Thanks for the look. You should get a hold of Tech Minds and compare note. He has been playing with one for a bit now. I definitely plan on picking one up on their next run.

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

I saw TM's video back in May (I think), he did a great job. I have a buddy who has been using one for a while and I plan to pick his brain a bit.

The Hermes lite is in stock again. I guess they're able to get the Intel FPGA's again. Also the cable modem chip is asbout $40 on Mouser and Digikey. I picked up the full kit from MakerFocus this morning.

Awesome, good luck with the build 👍

@Frank_K4FMH 2 года назад

Good video! I have one in the box that I’ll assemble soon. I purchased it, honestly, to be used with Sparksdr as a multiband WSPR Rx to feed spots back into the wspr DB. But Pete Juliano’s talks on this rig have intrigued me to use it as a transceiver with a qrp input amp. Keep up the good videos… 73 de K4FMH

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

It would be perfect for that WSPR project. Thanks for checking out the video Frank 👍

@temporarilyoffline 2 года назад

Very interesting that they connected over Ethernet

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

Yeah, sure is 👍

@AurorasPop 2 года назад

Sounds like a great radio. It seems already a few years old. Are there recent updates, or new designs in the same price-class. Maybe one that also handles V/UHF?

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

As far as I know this is the most recent version, based off the global semiconductor shortage I know they are looking at alternative chipsets.

That's pretty neat too bad they're out of stock on parts. I did get 2 parts from Amazon Amazon for SDR and I'm gonna see what I can do with that maybe sometime today I'll get to go back to where you showed it on RU-vid and find out what programs I have to download to make it go 70 take care good DX

@Tump2010 2 года назад

you should have tried making a contact. 😀

@MikeDent 10 месяцев назад

You’ve already taken it out of the anti static bag? So I assume by the way you are handling it you are wearing an esd wrist strap?

@TheSmokinApe 10 месяцев назад

I wasn’t, shame on me 😕

@moozoowizard 2 года назад

Hi Ape, At 11:50 you show receiving on 7.272.832 Mhz. There is a signal that frequency sweeps through the band. What is it? I see something like it at my place relatively often. its quite strong and annoying. Is it a chirpsounder? With mine I chased it with my RTL-SDR and it turned out there was another sweep going the opposite direction and the two sweeps converged at 14 Mhz something , I forgot the exact frequency but it was above the 20m ham band.

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

Hey Michael. I do see that from time to time but have no idea what it is, would like you have done more digging than I have. If I ever figure it out I’ll post a video. Thanks for watching 👍

@@TheSmokinApe I have one video dedicated on this QRM in one of my livestreams where I ask exactly the same question. What is it, what is the cause. The recording I did was in Thailand. I think it is man made and it is maybe some kind of welding machine.... I have these signals coming in very very hard in Thailand, especially when I beam towards China! De ON7OFF

@radiojared 9 месяцев назад

Those are ionosondes

@wf2v 2 года назад

You are transmitting without having installed the heat sink?

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

for a few seconds, yes

@Hal_tx Год назад

Just got mine going but the transmit signal is not showing in the display like yours is. It is showing on the DSP panel and I can monitor it on another receiver but it's not showing in the green bar like yours. Is there a setting I have missed?

@TheSmokinApe Год назад

I don't recall a setting for that, sorry man

@k2icc 2 года назад

I heard one live few days ago. There was a studio mike and an amplifier used with it. Any idea of what amp is available for such of a low 5 watt input? Thanks.

Not that I know of, I am going to look around. Thanks for watch K2ICC

Thanks for watching Ken, not sure I understand the question

@MaximusAurelius1987 2 года назад

Do you know of a SDR that can do Digital Mobile Radio

@TheSmokinApe 2 года назад

You can use a decoder for DMR receiving, I am not aware of any that with transmit

@MaximusAurelius1987 2 года назад

@@TheSmokinApe I was aware of decoder. Tx is harder but it requires synchronizing the time slots. I’m not surprised it’s not available. There’d have to be a OpenSDR-type plugin for SDR applications.

No wrist grounding straps. yet the boards are not in esd static protective bags. Guess not cmos, etc. Hm//my MO is to wrist strap. Informative video. thank you sir. My headphones and speaker are busted1 Gads. I wonder..did you do PureSigbal in this video? Hm...2nd harmonic would be like 50db down as I recall. My Hermes lite II is due next week.

@TheSmokinApe Год назад

Congrats on scoring one! I have not tried PureSignal yet...
