ahhh love the old sun workstations. Building my hermes 2 as we speak w1cjf

Thank you for the video. I got it running but decode for me is very spotty, even with a really good, strong FT-8 signal. Not anywhere as good as my Icom 7300 using the same antenna. How can I adjust levels or tweak the reception when using the TCI interface?

Hello. I have watched your videos about getting EESDR to run VARAHF. That is what I am trying to do. Unfortunately the videos are out of date. I have the audio working but not the cat control. Any chance of an updated video? Any other ideas?

sun has higher dynamic range, more bits

Hi thanks for help :)

Darren that spike as you call it doesn't go out over air.and it's a timing or was a timing between TX to RX switching. If you increase the switching delay few ms it doesn't occur which is now how I have it set.

I'm late to this one. But was trying to figure out the unkey spike. Thank you so much Darren!! de N2QN

Sorry to say, you did not isolate the audio sources.. (Both were heard mixed together, on both channals). This would normally not be a problem IF you did A B testing..

Thanks Rick, just what I needed! 73

I've been trying to make it work with my HL2. It works fine with Powersdr mrx but not with Thetis, choppy audio no matter what I do. The version I have here there is no Hermes Lite option, only Hermes. Could you please provide the link for this version? It seems the file does not exist at all, 73

What hardware is this based on? I ask because I want to download the correct version of pi-star for mine. Thank you.

You are very helpful. You've helped me without me having to ask. I find most every answer I need online and people like you with your videos.

Thanks Great Job Art W1SWL

Good video. Please turn down your intro music or balance w/the rest of the video. 73!

I do not care!!!!

You have a bent against the eesdr, and yes your issues are justified, what happened? I use expert elactrons and very much appreciate all the work you did with your videos.

Great mode. Especially if you buy the license for the higher speed. Nice features that work well. mailbox, relay function....unfortunately very few seem to be using it. Almost everybody just doing signal reports with FT8. I like doing FT8 sometimes just to see how far I can get out but it gets boring. I do most SSB when mobile with 10 meters lately.

Rick, I very much appreciate your efforts with the sunSRR, It has been very helpful. K7ELM

Only 384 views, and this is repetitive verbal diarrhoea. I am not pissed, I am a happy camper, you're a bitter guy regarding this radio. I too am a person that will say what is on their mind, I too can back up things that I say, and this radio is a champion, I am a dxer, I use it daily, on HF/8/6/5/4/2M bands and 100w. I don't need the pure tone or whatever that crap is. I work DX daily. So your opinion is quite blinkered, getting caught up on this duplex rubbish, you won't work anymore dx.. So get over it... There are many and I mean many people happy with this radio, you really need to build a bridge. Move on, and stick to the herpes. No one really cares about full duplex!

Hi, thanks for the nice evaluation, it was very helpful. I like the Sunsdr2-dx tranceiver, but my only huge concern is the software development. (closed software).

Hey l hope you have not this voice with bass on the air ? 73

When ever I need a good laugh, I listen to the group on 3.999! Oh, your 59+ 20 here tonight. Spending hundreds of dollars for equipment between the microphone and rig, for perhaps 4kHz of audio! You just need a microphone! Place the bandwidth of your SDR rigs from 3 to 4kHz, and you will hear very little energy in that bandwidth (when you have audio set to 4kHz)! Splatter comes from over driving an amplifier, or not having the mic audio set correctly... it can happen using any rig!

Is there any equivalent of Ping Jockey site for European stations?

A great reference of how clean the guys are on 3.999 with no IMD's, and shows the Buck Shot splatter box'es coming over from 3.995 they must be on Yaesu's

Great video Rick. Thank you! de W2MSA

Rick, thanks for the video! I completely agree with you! They are buying time by lying , constantly deceiving !I wish you and your family a Happy New Year!

Really good Rick. It’s a shame that these guys have zero idea about optics of running a business. They’re liars. Period. Hermes Lite 2 blows it away as does the anan. Glad I sold mine when there was still a demand for it.

Why are Russian companies even being given a voice right now?

Its hard to keep the lies straight. How dare you watch the old videos lol. I thought the same thing after watching his reply today. False advertising. You know this will draw the fan boys out of the shadows. Great video!!! I edited my post trying to turn over a new leaf.

Nice Video Rick! I learned a lot. Thanks James KY4JLS

Do the Hermes do 6 meters? It seems to me while on 6, I get 11 instead.

On Transmit tab, Speech Processor, CESSB Overshoot Control option needed, necessary or used on Hermes Lite 2? Thanks.

...goodbye flex- then next day he left 1 star review at ham reviews... loser

How can one edit the band plan in Thetis software? It isn't correct for my country.

There is no way to do full duplex on sunsdr with a single ADC even in time sharing it will be ugly, they must redesign it with 2 adc’s to achieve that. But wait and see.

Hello this is Rich N1NDF in Montana ... I just listen to the video "Everything SDR & More". I am and avid SDR user with a Flex / Anan / and several SDRPlays ... I like what you are hoping to do ... I just wonder if you taking on a lot more than you realize ... I hope it grows exponentially but doesn't over welm you .. when word gets out. Best wishes for your success with this idea ... I will check in as time permits ..

Purchased a HL2 today. If you can try opening up both receivers on the sun and set vfo 2 on 2 meter while vfo 1 is on hf. while setting the freq on 145.000 I'm hearing national time beacon. If I switch vfo 1 to 2 meter it corrects itself.

Nice, mny tks Rick, 73 de EA4BAS

What operating system are you running?

I got Hermes 2....there is a cream to fix it!

Really can tell you like Thetis SDR software with your HL2 !!!! Just got a HL2+ here and it light years ahead of the FlexRadio SmartSDR stuff !

The HL2 sounds better thanks to NR2. The hash on the Flex wrecks my head.

Mine is on the way 73 de VK2AOE

Only 3 qsos in a year. All beacons, plenty of them. I love the mode. I was a Amtor man for years, was hoping this was the mode to revitalise those lost days.

top notch remember essb was discover by G0BBD sk now hw was good friend with w2onv vy 73

I fully support this topic in the video !!! The user selects the product based on those information. which is represented by the manufacturer! And the manufacturer has been deceiving the user for many years, keeping us with promises!!!The Electronics expert can only promise , keep us informed of how the question will end

NOTE: the version of Thetis I am using which has the option for Remote use is a modified version for the Hermes Lite 2 rigs, Unless Ritchie or someone updating the standard version (aka Ritchie's versions) adds this option, it is currently only available in Reid's MI0BOT HL2 Beta 5 Thetis version- Connecting Thetis HL2 Beta 5 remotely Connect your HL2 or HL2+ to your router (HL2 or HL2+ needs to be seen by your router) On your Router you will need to open the correct port- this port also needs to be pointed to the IP address of your HL2 or HL2+ (the default is 1024 however you can specify another and I would suggest you do) Using Thetis on the side you are remoting from aka: Client side- you want the Public WAN IP address and Port number (port number used in the above step) Use the STATIC IP option BOX for the above settings check the BOX to USE STATIC IP address, UNCHECK the LIMIT SUBNET BOX Reid does suggest the following as well on the CLIENT-SIDE setting within Thetis: Sample Rate set to 4800 and set the TX Latency to 70ms and the PTT delay to 30ms. Rember this is still in testing and things may change, also remember your Internet at both locations will play a role in success as well.

Agree about EESDR. They just aren't updating the software. The only thing I do like about EESDR is the encoder so I can "spin the big dial". Any option for that in Thetis?

I forgot in description - This link provides some info and details on the NEW WAN remote option- groups.google.com/g/hermes-lite/c/35wcFqGSvwY

Does the Thetis HL2 Beta 5 software work with MacOS?
