  1. Very cool - FlexRadio 800 series (and Aurora) now support installing and running the #freedv waveform on-device.

    github.com/drowe67/freedv-gui/

    I never expected to be able to run a container directly on my #flexradio. Doesn't look like Marcus #smartsdr supports this yet but can't imagine it'll be far behind.

    I've decided to go with the "Glutton For Punishment" option.

    I'm going to give FreeDV another go.
    I'm reinstalling Linux Mint on an ancient Acer Aspire One netbook.
    It won't matter if FreeDV messes up this box because it's been in a cupboard for months anyway
    It's got a tiny 10 inch screen which could make operating a slight challenge though if it does work.

    Fingers crossed

  7. I’ve been attempting to get the #freedv AppImage for #flexradio running on the RPi4 I use as my Allstar Node. I couldn’t get it to decode.

    Managed to get it running on my #uconsole and received ON4LX operating on #qo100.

    Spoiler: there is a firewall on the Allstar Node.

  12. Yet another lovely #qso with Helmut dc6ny in Bavaria

    #FreeDV on #qo100 #hamradio

    He hit SNR 7 with his home brew trx and 80 cm dish!

  17. Had a short initial foray into #FreeDV yesterday- I only have a very low power antenna for 40m in the loft, so didn’t succeed with transmitting but the audio quality (on moderately high SNR signals) is impressive! The upper HF bands were empty, nobody listening, so didn’t try transmitting with moderate power there.

    Wonder what the “it’s not real radio” blowhards will make of it? ;)

  22. One more attempt at #FreeDV tomorrow then I give up.

    I got a brief blast of decoded audio on 60m this afternoon, but then the Linux laptop decided to unilaterally change the audio settings.
    I think the FreeDV program is sound, but there seems to be something weird going on between my TS590s and the laptop.

    It doesn't help that there's not a lot of activity to test the set up with

  27. I think a #HamRadio project for the new year will be getting into #FreeDV. Thanks to evoham.com for beginner guides, and Steve Stroh @n8gnj for the continually interesting Zero Retries newsletter (and pointing out EvoHam) - Amateur Radio for the 21st Century, not the old legacy stuff from the 1950s! (Although I do hope to do some of that too…)
