John Not sure if this is the right place to post this question if it is not right please re-direct me I have loaded beta5 image for the RPi/DRAWS and have been following the instructions from N7NIX (

Hi Everyone. First of all thank you for your testing, observations, suggestions, and requests for help via the established groups on

Hi Basil, I ran your script verify_time.sh and saw NTP synchronized: no ! Consequently I concluded that my NTP install operation followed by another chrony install introduced some issue. Thus I

On your first boot of the new image you need to follow these instructions: https://github.com/nwdigitalradio/n7nix/blob/master/DRAWS_CONFIG.md You need to run ./app_config.sh core. It will set your

From my experimenting, (4 reloads of beta version 5) yes to your question below. You are unlikely to get anywhere until you run it. You can kill direwolf immediately as directed, then set up fldigi

If you have one of our beta images, you can quickly upgrade. From a terminal perform the following: cd /tmp wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/js8call/0.11.0/js8call_0.11.0-devel_armhf.deb sudo apt-get

Hi Gayland, Thank you for testing the DRAWS board. This email only addresses your audio problem. First uncommenting the dtparam=audio=on line in the /boot/config.txt should not cause your system to

Hi Jack, Thanks for the console output. Your PCM /LO Driver Gain settings seem off to me. Those are the 2 controls for setting DAC output (deviation). The PCM control is the digital output setting &

Basil, That test got me part of the way there. DRAWS was apparently overdriving the audio front end of the IC-7000, hence the flashing TX led. I did not know it did that! The *showudrc.sh* output is

I haven't the sophisticated knowledge of how the DRAWS & UDRC perform their magic but I have the following observations. Out of the box, the DRAWS would not work with my Yaesu 857D when running

In general for debugging problems: Send output of: ~/bin/showudrc.sh ~/n7nix/debug/alsa-show.sh Use the following instructions for measure_deviate.sh to verify PTT & transmit
