Re: LF: Generating 8970 Hz carrier with Spectrum Lab ?

["PA1SDB, Peter" <pa1sdb@amsat.org>]

Tnx Eddie,

Lets see what happens from now on (11h00 UTC)

I have now configured a continue test tone at 8970.1 Hz in that Digimode terminal. SR cal is locked at 22KC1

A few 100 mW of notebook audio into a 13cm open end of a shielded wire and RX antenna at 20 meter distcance :-)

Oops, tried it, they do not bring up, "Also Configure the Digimode Terminal to TRANSMIT QRSS"  like the  other QRSSS settings do, I suspect you need to use one of the - Slow CW 1 to 120sec step and then set up to suit the FFT required.

Hi Peter / Roger

Of course Wolf has already sorted that one, I suspect Peter you are not using not using Speclab - Quick Settings - Slow Morse Reception (QRSS) - 60sec / 120sec / 600sec step. These have sound card locking.

Peter,

I hope the experts like Wolf and Stefan can help.

Another question for Wolf etc: how would one use a single PC with two instances of SL running to (a) lock the soundcard to an 18-22kHz MSK signal like GBZ one one instance and then (b) generate a (frequency stable and locked)  output signal for an 8.970kHz TX?

It is some months since I have used SL and I was never what might be called an "expert user".

Hello VLF,

I like to do some local test here with Spectrum lab setings (and who knows, High ERP transmissions later  :-)

I have here a notebook that generates a signal with the Signal generator in Spectrum Lab at 8970.1 Hz.

It has a Loop connected at the input and thats how it is locked to a GDO (HWU, FTA, what is available)

I tried several, and that Lock wondow gets green, but output looks terrible.

To radiate the signal I use a pice of wire at the notebook LS output.

 

Below two grab's over the same periode of time.

My localy generated signal at 8970.100 Hz and for comparison the signal of DJ8WX at 8970.022 Hertz.

 

Both grab's are made with the same Spectrum Lab task.

 

Why does my signal look like a widband FM transmission ?

 

 

 

Best 73's, Peter - PA1SDB
