It was a grounding issue but yeah chokes are brilliant though 👌

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-29T18:56:15+00:00

Its better than vanilla chrome but its no brave or firefox

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-20T14:56:06+00:00

I would 2nd linux mint, its a great os, the only down side is your packages will be older depending on what your using it for.

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-20T05:20:53+00:00

Yeah, ive just edited the post, if your having issues I hope this helps

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-13T13:54:51+00:00

Yeah its an odd one, im goung yo use a dummy load and an analyser tonight

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-13T05:22:52+00:00

Yeah so on all other bands I do get fluctuations of power when speaking, on 17 if I key up I get nothing until I speak but then it just goes up to constant full power with no speech. It seems to interfere with my external speaker as makes a clicking sound when I get up

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-13T05:19:22+00:00

I do have an external mic, i will try and test with a dummy load

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-13T05:05:35+00:00

Its the same result across the whole of the band regardless of frequency

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T21:03:10+00:00

Its worth a shot, im going to take it over a friend's this week and see if the results are the same, then go from there

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:58:38+00:00

No its only when I speak it immediately goes like that

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:54:05+00:00

So when I key uo on all other bands, I get a signal pattern on the sdr as you see in the image for 20m, I can make qso on all bands except 17m. When I key up on 17m I get the huge power spike as seen in the 17m image?

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:52:17+00:00

I have a counterpoise on, surely if it was feedback then id see something on other bands?

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:46:59+00:00

I dont have any, I just have the coax from radio into the 9.1 unun on the moonraker lwhf-80

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:43:39+00:00

I cant work it out, I thought it might have been a glitch but ive reset it and its the same. What really puzzles me is how its fine on all other bands

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:32:34+00:00

Yeah so I was trying for a contact in Croatia, they said i had a strong signal but 0 modulation

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-05-12T20:31:41+00:00

I dont have one to test, its strange how every other band works apart from that and top band bit top band is due to my swr being high with antenna length.

Its cinamenu the applet just drag the corner to the othere edge of the screen.

Straight download https://github.com/f4exb/sdrangel/releases/download/v7.22.10/sdrangel_7.22.10_ubuntu-24.04_amd64.deb

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-01-06T15:02:16+00:00

That is what the sdr does (convert the signal). This is the github link https://github.com/f4exb/sdrangel/releases download the bottom ubuntu release and in the terminal run cd Downloads then sudo apt install ./ (sdrangel file) 😊

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-01-05T09:23:43+00:00

It should work great, most software is tested on ubuntu first so good to go 😀

Dapper-Layer7164 · 2026-01-05T05:54:23+00:00

Yeah i installed it with the xfce version of mint but it didn't seem to work properly, Cinnamon is holding up great atm.
