08:10:18Z Dave_G8GKQ Well done. Now better full lock
08:10:42Z SV8RV yes camera
08:10:51Z SV8RV i will rotate
08:12:38Z Dave_G8GKQ Very neat shack. What transmitter are you using?
08:14:09Z SV8RV lime mini+2 spf5189z +amol 10 watts about
08:14:15Z SV8RV 1.4m dish
08:14:33Z SV8RV amplifier 10w
08:15:00Z Dave_G8GKQ OK. And DATV Express software?
08:15:04Z SV8RV yes
08:15:30Z SV8RV beginner steps on transmitting
08:15:54Z Dave_G8GKQ A good start!
08:16:04Z Dave_G8GKQ Solid D1 here now
08:16:05Z SV8RV yes
08:16:40Z SV8RV i will test with more power between amplifier and lime
08:16:51Z Arthur G4CPE SV8RV D1 solid lock 73
08:16:55Z SV8RV now 150 mwatts
08:17:05Z SV8RV my amplifier needs 800 mw
08:17:15Z SV8RV my amplifier is in the shack
08:17:27Z SV8RV 12 meters of ecoflex 15
08:18:00Z SV8RV thanks Arthur
08:18:38Z Dave_G8GKQ I use a small amplifier in the shack after my Lime and then have the big PA next to the dish
08:19:04Z SV8RV yes i will do the same
08:19:16Z SV8RV which amplifier
08:19:22Z SV8RV the small one?
08:19:34Z Dave_G8GKQ Good morning Arthur. Can't transmit a t the moment as my PA is in the shack for modification
08:20:24Z Arthur G4CPE Good morning Dave
08:21:06Z Dave_G8GKQ The small amplifier is a single BGA6489 MMIC (cost 1 Euro) on a homebrew PCB
08:21:20Z SV8RV ok
08:22:03Z SV8RV waiting for cn0417 from analog devices to test with my pluto
08:24:31Z Dave_G8GKQ That should be good
08:49:29Z ON7ATV_Alan morgen renny b5
09:15:43Z on7ndr can you give 250 1/2
09:15:58Z on7ndr can you do 250 1/2 fec
09:41:09Z M1CDQ Roger SV8RV managed video lock
09:41:57Z SV8RV thanks Roger
09:42:18Z M1CDQ Roger mer 5 D4
09:49:58Z 144750 need an extra 1db to decode. 80cm dish
09:55:12Z i2NDT Claudio SV8RB MER 3 on 80cm dish!
09:55:42Z SV8RV thanks Claudio 73 de SV8RV
09:55:47Z i2NDT Claudio sorry...SV8RV
09:55:51Z M1CDQ Roger SV8RV got vidlock just as you stopped
09:58:30Z M1CDQ Roger Mer5.5 D4 im using a 1m Dish octagon quad lnb unmodded
09:58:59Z i2NDT Claudio decoded but the image in quite "pixeled"
10:01:50Z M0JFP is anyone able to assist me with the DVN-S2 Demod GUI software
10:02:11Z M0JFP DVB even
10:05:10Z markro92 hi M0JFP
10:05:14Z markro92 teamviewer?
10:05:18Z M0JFP afternoon
10:05:21Z M0JFP yes
10:05:21Z markro92 k
10:05:28Z markro92 claudio? teamviewer?
10:05:32Z markro92 i promised that long ago :D
10:06:18Z M0JFP /msg markro92 teamviewer ID 1 254 240 782
10:06:22Z markro92 ok
10:06:45Z markro92 can you update your teamviewer version to 14?
10:06:47Z markro92 it's to old
10:06:51Z M0JFP /msg markro92 pass v685yz
10:07:11Z M0JFP 14.2
10:07:38Z markro92 k wait maybe m version is too old, but it says remote..
10:09:17Z markro92 ok i have the latest version
10:10:29Z M0JFP "your team viewer is up to date" there is no new version (help check for new version)
10:11:14Z markro92 my etamviewer says the same
10:11:21Z markro92 so we both have 14.2 and it doesnt work?
10:11:42Z markro92 sry
10:11:45Z markro92 my fault
10:11:54Z markro92 didnt realize the 1 at the beginning was part of your id :D
10:12:07Z M0JFP LOL!
10:15:14Z M0JFP OK, thanks for looking
10:16:09Z i2NDT Claudio yes markro92 but need some time to set up the hardware...
10:18:36Z markro92 @M0JFP: bi think that a 1MS transponder which is strong enough could help
10:18:47Z markro92 because of the signal: i suppose you have a 80cm dish?
10:19:21Z markro92 and can you try with lower samplerate?
10:19:29Z markro92 the SDRPlay can also do 5MHz
10:19:33Z markro92 that should also help
10:20:28Z M0JFP my other laptop is: Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8850H CPU @ 2.60GHz, 2592 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)
10:20:43Z M0JFP with 32GB memory, that would probably cope better
10:20:51Z markro92 that 6 core CPU should be much better, because my software benefits from multiple cores
10:21:10Z markro92 memory isn't that important
10:21:15Z markro92 my software uses around 100MB i think
10:21:39Z M0JFP but that cpu is better?
10:22:21Z markro92 much better i think
10:22:32Z M0JFP cool I take this home tonight and have a play then!
10:22:42Z M0JFP do you think signal is still issue?
10:22:49Z markro92 yes
10:22:53Z markro92 looked like 80cm dish
10:22:57Z M0JFP it is
10:23:32Z M0JFP what would you suggest, given my xyl was not happy with 80cm ;-)
10:26:19Z M1CDQ Roger paint it a different colour and tell her is a smaller dish
10:26:28Z markro92 :D
10:26:42Z M0JFP LOL !!
10:27:06Z M0JFP would I have better luck trying the Ham signals as they crop up?
10:27:16Z markro92 yes, i think so
10:28:04Z M0JFP newbie question are they dvb-s1
10:28:12Z markro92 most of them are S2
10:28:27Z M0JFP and same FEC, just different symbol rate?
10:28:41Z markro92 different FECs and symbolrates
10:28:50Z markro92 my software shows the FEC in the console
10:28:52Z M0JFP easy ay to tell?
10:28:55Z M0JFP way
10:28:58Z markro92 but that will change, need to put it into the GUI itself
10:35:02Z M0JFP
10:36:40Z i2NDT Claudio markro92...if you still have some spare time I am also online with teamviewr.
10:47:34Z M0JFP I need a 10 min burst of low bandwidth tv to try
10:47:53Z M0JFP and decode
10:49:22Z on7ndr-nico i2ndt still here?
10:50:23Z on7ndr-nico claudio?
10:50:58Z i2NDT Claudio yes!
10:51:37Z on7ndr-nico can you go to skype first
10:52:04Z i2NDT Claudio mmmm....mom I don't remember the psw...
10:54:50Z i2NDT Claudio OK Nico: I am on skype
10:57:24Z M0JFP so when it says 250ks thats what you stick in the symbol rate
11:04:45Z PE1ASH Renny Hallo Richard, DL9OBU
11:05:03Z DL9OBU_Richard Hello renny
11:05:15Z DL9OBU_Richard let me test with 2000ks short
11:06:24Z PE1ASH Renny ja ok go ahead
11:06:44Z markro92 @claudio: k teamviwwer now?
11:07:39Z DL9OBU_Richard yer it work tnx renny
11:08:06Z DL9OBU_Richard hello renny where are you
11:08:15Z PE1ASH Renny ok this is 500 ks Richard
11:08:27Z PE1ASH Renny hallo
11:08:50Z PE1ASH Renny Ok i must send ??
11:09:42Z DL9OBU_Richard yes
11:15:21Z DL9OBU_Richard G8GKQ Picture from the shack MER 4 D2 vy 73 Richard
11:15:38Z M0JFP 500ks what FEC ??
11:15:50Z markro92 1/2
11:15:56Z DL9OBU_Richard G8GKQ in 1/2 FEC
11:16:00Z M0JFP I can see the signal from home no issues
11:16:08Z DL9OBU_Richard hallo marcel
11:16:18Z markro92 hi richard
11:16:43Z markro92 ja hab grad das signal von renny gesehen
11:16:45Z markro92 euer qso
11:17:29Z DL9OBU_Richard ja das duplex qso macht immer spass auch mit evariste, collin, mike und john alle sehr nett
11:17:31Z M0JFP markro92 would i be able to decode a dvb-s1 signal, with current set up?
11:18:11Z markro92 hasn't a lot to do with your receive setup
11:18:16Z M0JFP ok
11:18:25Z M0JFP better PC bigger dish
11:18:30Z M0JFP story of my life ;-)
11:20:53Z markro92 the thing is, there are people here that decoded the beacon with the RTLSDR and a Dualcore CPU
11:21:00Z markro92 can you try a lower samplerate?
11:21:13Z markro92 i noticed that you use 10MHz samplerate, you could try 5
11:21:26Z M0JFP sure
11:21:30Z markro92 that means less CPU load for FFT and resampling
11:23:50Z Dave_G8GKQ G8GKQ Testing with 30W into a 1.2m dish
11:25:53Z M0JFP team viewer: 1254240782 / 9mc5s6
11:31:05Z markro92 can someone transmit a signal for a bit longer?
11:31:09Z markro92 dont always shut it on and off
11:31:19Z DL9OBU_Richard ja mache ich
11:31:29Z markro92 danke
11:32:16Z markro92 etwas mehr sendeleistung? nich viekl
11:32:59Z DL9OBU_Richard reicht so?
11:33:07Z markro92 ja passt
11:34:12Z markro92 vllt bisschen mehr
11:34:20Z markro92 M0JPF hat 80cm schüssel

11:36:51Z markro92 k thats it M0JFP :)
11:37:09Z markro92 you wont have much fun with your dish, except for string carriers
11:37:12Z markro92 strong
11:38:58Z markro92 http://v.1337team.tk/m0jfp_comparison.jpg
11:39:08Z markro92 thats how it looks with my 120cm dish
11:39:35Z DL9OBU_Richard super
11:39:43Z DL9OBU_Richard kann ich ausschalten?
11:39:47Z markro92 jop
11:39:51Z DL9OBU_Richard bin auch über der bake...

11:51:44Z M0JFP hej
11:51:51Z F6DZP Jean-Pierre SV8RV now D1 at SR500
11:57:48Z markro92 @DD4YR: nice signal. 250ks S2 QPSK 2/3
11:58:13Z DD4YR_Robert @macro92: tnx report
11:58:32Z markro92 there is still a bit headroom with 120cm dish here
11:58:59Z markro92 i think fec 3/4 and 3/5 could also work.
12:00:23Z markro92 Amateurfunk live
12:00:25Z markro92 wem gehört das signal?
12:00:30Z markro92 ich erkenne sogar den garten wieder :D
12:00:52Z markro92 wobei nicht sicher :P
12:01:46Z M0JFP hej marco, how mar du
12:03:00Z markro92 @DD4YR signal is also good
12:03:12Z markro92 can we try 4/5? should also work
12:03:56Z F6DZP Jean-Pierre SV8RV D2 good copy
12:04:23Z DD4YR_Robert 3/5 looks good ...
12:04:42Z SV8RV thanks Jean Pierre
12:05:13Z F6DZP Jean-Pierre SV8RV could copy also SR500
12:05:40Z M0JFP Markro92 thanks so much I came back to desk after meeting see that I did work, could you tell me how you did it?
12:06:10Z markro92 oh, thought you watch it :D
12:06:23Z M0JFP sorry boss came over and dragged me to a meeting ;-)
12:06:24Z markro92 i tried teh signal from richard
12:06:40Z markro92 and i asked him to bump up the transmit pwoer a bit
12:08:04Z M0JFP I almost wet myself when I came back and saw the screen !!
12:08:10Z markro92 ^^
12:10:38Z M0JFP I got a screen grab, proving it will work !
12:10:57Z markro92 http://v.1337team.tk/m0jfp_comparison.jpg
12:11:02Z markro92 thats how it looks on my end
12:11:23Z markro92 your constellation was quite noisy
12:14:38Z M0JFP yes I can see that, I will play more with the dish, its on a long pole, can go higher up out the way
12:21:11Z M0JFP richard / markro can we reproduce the test again please?
12:21:34Z markro92 i think he's away for a while now
12:21:48Z M0JFP ok
12:21:54Z markro92 i'll connect in teamviewer again
12:21:58Z markro92 maybe there are other signals
12:22:06Z markro92 but i doublt that they are strong enough
12:22:34Z M0JFP thanks, is it easier to decode the stronger the signal?
12:22:40Z markro92 yes
12:22:47Z markro92 and the LDPC worker needs fewer iterations for strong signals
12:23:01Z markro92 teamviewer pwß

12:24:55Z PA2HOS-Harry is er iemand die me even kan helpen met intelen minitiouner
12:25:32Z markro92 can someone provide us with a test signal?0
12:28:08Z M0JFP thanks so much that was awesome!!!
12:28:18Z markro92 yes, but signal was on the edge again
12:28:21Z markro92 not very strong
12:31:47Z Gary_2E0LGZ OE3GBB MER 3 D4 1m un modded LNB
12:32:26Z markro92 gary, can you increase tx power a bit?
12:32:36Z markro92 we need a test signal suitable for a 80cm dish :D
12:32:39Z markro92 if thats possible
12:32:48Z markro92 can you do around 8dB on the spectrum monitor?
12:33:05Z OE3GBB_Gerhard Gary, tnx, here also MER3 on 80cm dish and unmodded LNB
12:34:57Z Gary_2E0LGZ markro92 i’m receive only
12:35:07Z markro92 k srory, thought that was your signal
12:35:37Z Gary_2E0LGZ no worries hope to be tx soon
12:36:13Z OE3GBB_Gerhard it was me, but I have some problems with higher power. Seems the LimeSDR mini is making problems at drive above 80.
12:36:25Z markro92 can you try 125ks then?
12:36:32Z OE3GBB_Gerhard ok
12:38:26Z Gary_2E0LGZ Ok Gerhard i got u mer 6 now but degraded picture
12:39:30Z Gary_2E0LGZ using a minitiouner express for receive
12:39:47Z OE3GBB_Gerhard Well, I copy myself with MER 5,5, but bo video. Don't know how portsdown ist doing the Video on testcard. Will try the Picam.
12:40:56Z OE3GBB_Gerhard Video ok now, b ut only 160/128
12:42:25Z OE3GBB_Gerhard Also see some sideband emissions on the WB receiver. no good!
12:42:58Z Gary_2E0LGZ video is a bit blurred but watchable
12:44:06Z OE3GBB_Gerhard HAve been working on a new feed today, but I still need more power HIHI
12:44:40Z Gary_2E0LGZ haha 👍
12:45:02Z OE3GBB_Gerhard going to check the temperatur on the circulator.
12:48:35Z Gary_2E0LGZ DD4YR MER 3 D3
12:49:34Z OE3GBB_Gerhard Circulator is normal, so the new feed ist matched.
12:55:12Z OE3GBB_Gerhard @DD4YR: good copy at the end of your transmission

15:13:47Z PE1ASH Renny :-)
15:13:54Z G8GTZ had 80 watts out in the shack with 40 dB shoulders at 500kS :-)
15:14:16Z iz1dxv sopra al traliccio hai una vista splendida
15:15:03Z Mike Can you help me get my amp working?
15:15:10Z G8GTZ yes....
15:15:16Z G8GTZ sry maybe....
15:15:31Z G8GTZ skype chat?
15:15:43Z iz1dxv Renny hai anche una stazione splendida
15:15:59Z PE1ASH Renny multo greazie
15:16:11Z Mike Thanks. Skype? We have a satellite!
15:16:45Z G8GTZ OK - I can run NB but need notice
15:16:56Z G8GTZ well 10 mins...
15:16:58Z Mike Skype then.
15:17:25Z G8GTZ we could go on the ATC cord channels...
15:17:27Z GI7UGV_John G8GTZ, finished my install off with a custom fitted cover for the connector side of amplifier
15:17:36Z GI7UGV_John https://i.imgur.com/OsTxJQG.jpg
15:17:51Z GI7UGV_John super professional :)
15:17:54Z G8GTZ ha ha!
15:18:13Z G8GTZ you're not blowing yours either?
15:18:14Z iz1dxv Renny ho visto ai quasi tutto autocostruito complimenti
15:18:34Z GI7UGV_John trying it out to see how it goes as is
15:18:48Z Mike Nice patch
15:18:56Z GI7UGV_John ;)
15:18:57Z G8GTZ I'm hoping not too... you may need a sun shade
15:19:10Z M0JFP is there a way to tell?
15:19:10Z GI7UGV_John It's not normally sunny here..
15:19:17Z Mike Don't know
15:19:34Z G8GTZ @MFJ = no
15:19:51Z G8GTZ 2/3
15:20:18Z G8GTZ Joohn - have u the o/p filter in yours?
15:20:31Z Mike Skype stopped working. Says it has to update
15:21:03Z G8GTZ Hi Tim - D1 - nice dish :-)
15:21:36Z G8GTZ microwave beef for tea?
15:21:55Z Mike D1 here Tim
15:22:11Z Mike Salt beef at that ASL
15:22:17Z G4WIM_Tim Thanks - cattle are back on the marsh as its that time of year. Had about 20 of them really close watching me align the dish !
15:22:34Z G8GTZ good pictures
15:22:35Z iz1dxv Ciao Renny ti saluto e ti auguro una buona serata
15:22:45Z G4WIM_Tim They are really curious creatures
15:22:49Z Mike DATV Express I think.
15:23:15Z Mike Not set up the metadata quite right
15:24:12Z Mike Seems hungry
15:24:50Z Mike I have microsoft
15:24:51Z GI7UGV_John I have the OP filter but not had it altered, will put filter on the input inside the case shortly
15:25:02Z PE1ASH Renny IZ1DXV Ciao grazie 73's
15:25:32Z G4WIM_Tim Not sure why - but loose video - could be either DATV express or Minitioner which has been having fits of freezing today
15:25:42Z Mike That was supposed to say I hate microsoft
15:25:44Z G8GTZ OK - not got one so put a short semi rigid between o/p and N type bulkhead
15:25:57Z G8GTZ Express - I lost it as well.
15:26:28Z GI7UGV_John yes, semi rigid inbetween now, not melting rg316 there again :)
15:26:55Z G4WIM_Tim ok - that's what I figured - don't know why as it all seemed ok and the buffers weren't over flowing.
15:27:06Z G8GTZ Tx feeder now RG393 - Time microwave 1Kw at 3GHz :-)
15:27:42Z G8GTZ Mike - I'll see if I can get NB fired up
15:27:54Z G4WIM_Tim though about changing the 2 mtrs of ecoflex 10 between PA and dish as there's 0.7dB loss there.
15:28:11Z Mike I can't do NB and WB at the same time. Just fixing Skype - be there soon
15:28:16Z Mike maybe
15:28:22Z markro92 @G8GTZ: 1KW? what for :D
15:29:06Z G8GTZ beause I can! That's just the Tx feeder cable rating - but burnt out last one with 60 watts!
15:29:19Z G8GTZ did you get my email
15:29:59Z Mike No
15:30:13Z G8GTZ not u - @ markro
15:31:27Z Dave_G8GKQ Call me in on the skype if you like...

21:05:36Z G3ZGZ Dave d0 with 1mtr dish
21:10:06Z dg9bfc_sigi grrr ... every time i select 125ks ... soft stops after a second ... start new .. ptt ... after a second or two ... soft stops cmpletely
21:12:39Z dg9bfc_sigi there must be still a bug ... 250ks works .. 66ks works ... 125ks ... soft stops afterA SECOND
21:27:42Z dg9bfc_sigi SO NOW TESTING 66 KS
21:28:15Z dg9bfc_sigi if anybody can see "ma face" .. pls report
21:28:22Z markro92 k i'll try
21:29:42Z dg9bfc_sigi what really puzzels me is ... sot will not stay on when i select 125k ... 66k and 250k itz stays on transmitting but when i type in 125ks the soft stops after a second
21:29:52Z markro92 my software?
21:30:05Z dg9bfc_sigi typo ... SOFT will not stay on
21:31:35Z dg9bfc_sigi ??? if makro ... ist programmer of datv express .. then yes ... your soft
21:31:56Z markro92 no, i'm not doing datv express :)
21:32:05Z dg9bfc_sigi working with 1.26 here ...
21:32:14Z markro92 are you doing dvb-s1? seems like it
21:32:24Z CT2GHB Sérgio Hi,
21:32:30Z dg9bfc_sigi tried s and s2
21:32:54Z CT2GHB Sérgio I receive s1 , but 17%vber
21:32:56Z markro92 ok it's S1 at the moment, i did try to lock S2 all the time sorry :D
21:33:07Z CT2GHB Sérgio no video decoded
21:33:08Z dg9bfc_sigi problem is .. does not stay on in txing when i select 125ks ... but stays on in 250 and 66ks
21:33:43Z dg9bfc_sigi i thought s1 would be easier to decode?!? not??? .. excuse that are my very first steps in datv
21:34:09Z markro92 S2 has better error correction, it uses LDPC instead of viterbi
21:34:18Z markro92 hm i'm decoding your signal just fine
21:34:23Z markro92 but no picture or audio
21:34:28Z markro92 constellation looks good here
21:34:38Z dg9bfc_sigi hmmmm so i have to check input settings
21:34:57Z markro92 can you try DVB-S2 QPSK 1/2?
21:35:23Z dg9bfc_sigi yes i will try ... one moment
21:36:13Z dg9bfc_sigi pilot on or off?? ... roll off??
21:36:29Z markro92 use QPSK
21:36:38Z markro92 QPSK doesn't have pilots because it doesnt need them
21:36:45Z markro92 rolloff can be 0.35
21:37:06Z markro92 smaller rolloff means that your signal is more narrow, the filter cutoff will be not so strong
21:38:03Z markro92 k, decodign works fine
21:38:06Z markro92 signal is strong enough
21:38:08Z dg9bfc_sigi ok .. set to qpsk 1/2 ... rolloff 0.35 .. no pilot ... red light on camera is on (using a tablett here
21:38:10Z markro92 but still no audio / picture
21:38:33Z dg9bfc_sigi hmm ... so i have to check the input settings
21:38:41Z dg9bfc_sigi a minute pls
21:40:32Z dg9bfc_sigi the input seems correct (camera built in) ... red light comes on when txing
21:40:45Z dg9bfc_sigi but i try another setting
21:42:02Z dg9bfc_sigi i now use the datvxprs with direct input ... should i switch vmix in between?!?
21:43:00Z markro92 dont know thats the cause of that problem
21:43:05Z markro92 dont use that software
21:43:34Z markro92 wel i'Äm not using it because i dont transmit
21:43:49Z dg9bfc_sigi i thought direct in would be easier to setup as with using vmix(with lots of settings that i meay set wrong)
21:50:21Z dg9bfc_sigi now tried a different setting
21:51:44Z dg9bfc_sigi ???? picture???
21:54:34Z dg9bfc_sigi makro92 ... still there??
21:55:53Z dg9bfc_sigi ????????????????????????
22:00:12Z dg9bfc_sigi there are soooo many setings in the soft ... i do not exactly know how to set it up

22:03:49Z G4EWJ OK.
22:03:54Z dg9bfc_sigi should i switch to 262??
22:04:54Z G4EWJ Try it.
22:05:11Z dg9bfc_sigi and ... video pid and audio pid ... what numbers??
22:05:34Z G4EWJ Video 256, audio 257.
22:06:42Z dg9bfc_sigi ok ... another try
22:07:54Z dg9bfc_sigi would be nice if you could tell me the settings in each settings tab one by one ... till i can send a picture :-)
22:08:43Z dg9bfc_sigi sadly my datv receiver is not finshed yet (have the batc board with serrit tuner but not finished solder work
22:09:00Z G4EWJ Which program are you using? You could try a higher symbol rate. You are strong enough.
22:09:42Z dg9bfc_sigi datv express ... the soft stops txing when i seleczt 125ks ... but stays on in 66ks and 250ks
22:09:54Z dg9bfc_sigi moment pls
22:10:58Z dg9bfc_sigi switched to 250k .. still green lamps?? or is now the level tooo low??
22:12:11Z dg9bfc_sigi 4db over noise should work ... not?
22:12:38Z G4EWJ D1 all green, but I am not getting your PIDs. Are you using 256 and 257 now?
22:12:44Z dg9bfc_sigi yes
22:13:20Z G4EWJ Stand by.
22:13:44Z dg9bfc_sigi what numbers should i have in the other boxes in the pid setting tab ... aybe there is a fault??
22:15:20Z dg9bfc_sigi can you tell me the right settings in each box and each tab?? that REALLY would help me
22:17:07Z G4EWJ This is a new PC without DATV-Express. Give me 5 minutes to change and I can look at the settings box for DATV-Express..
22:18:00Z dg9bfc_sigi ok ... i walk in the kitchen grabbing a coffee
22:18:23Z dg9bfc_sigi back in a minute
22:23:05Z dg9bfc_sigi ahhhh ... coffee .. that beautiful elixir that make us live before noon (and stay up all night long)
22:23:38Z G4EWJ :-)

22:25:42Z dg9bfc_sigi i´ll spend you a pint if you help me to get it working :-)
22:26:57Z G4EWJ :-). Which version of DATV-Express?
22:27:28Z dg9bfc_sigi 1.26
22:27:41Z dg9bfc_sigi found in the forum that version
22:27:50Z G4EWJ 1.26LP... ?
22:28:34Z dg9bfc_sigi ??? lp?? when i open the help tab .. there only stands 1.26 ... no lp12 or 14 or something like that
22:29:08Z dg9bfc_sigi but if i remember right ... in the 1.25lp14 those settings looked identical
22:29:10Z 144750 DF6SM need another db to decode 80cm dish
22:29:26Z G4EWJ Doesn't really matter. Go to the INPUT tab. What do you have for video?
22:30:40Z dg9bfc_sigi builtin camera in this tablett
22:31:02Z dg9bfc_sigi exactly there are two camreas .. one at front and one at the back
22:31:16Z dg9bfc_sigi like in a smartphone
22:31:24Z G4EWJ What have you put in for video device and format in the video capture settings?
22:32:39Z dg9bfc_sigi device ov2772 (thats the front cam) ... format 640 480 29 yuy2
22:33:15Z dg9bfc_sigi interlaced is on (is that correct??)
22:33:38Z G4EWJ 29? Do you have any options with 30?
22:34:04Z G4EWJ Make it smaller anyway. 320x240
22:34:25Z dg9bfc_sigi yes ... 1280 720 30 yuy2
22:34:51Z G4EWJ Too many pixels. 320 x 240 x 30 YUY2?
22:34:58Z dg9bfc_sigi all below 1280 ... are 29 but not 30
22:35:31Z G4EWJ Can you try the other camera and see what the options are.
22:35:43Z dg9bfc_sigi seleced 320 240 29 yuy2
22:35:50Z dg9bfc_sigi yes i will take a look
22:37:19Z dg9bfc_sigi on the other cam .. same thing .. all below 1280 is 29 but not 30
22:37:44Z G4EWJ 29 sounds more like NTSC. Try 320 240 29.
22:37:47Z dg9bfc_sigi can also select 320x240 .. but not 30 .. it s 29
22:38:27Z G4EWJ OK. Now look a the audio capture settings.
22:38:38Z dg9bfc_sigi ok selected back cam 320 240 29 yuy2
22:38:43Z G4EWJ OK.
22:39:08Z dg9bfc_sigi mikrophone selected
22:39:33Z G4EWJ OK now check the CODEC tab.
22:40:30Z dg9bfc_sigi codec 262 (or should i select 264???) ... what is gop, bframes, twiddle??
22:41:15Z G4EWJ Set H.264, GOP 25 B frames 0, performance Very Fast.
22:41:43Z G4EWJ What do you have for Buffer % and Twiddle?
22:42:24Z dg9bfc_sigi buffer% ??? i do not find that in this tab ... twiddle set to 0.700000
22:42:57Z G4EWJ It must be a different version. Save that and go to Audio Codec.
22:43:27Z G4EWJ Let's keep it simple. Turn off Enable Audio.
22:43:55Z dg9bfc_sigi audio ... mpeg I layer II .. 64k stereo hook set in "enable audio"
22:44:02Z dg9bfc_sigi ok .. switch off audio
22:44:04Z dg9bfc_sigi done

22:46:08Z dg9bfc_sigi done
22:46:09Z G4EWJ Provider and service = your callsign.
22:46:34Z G4EWJ Save that and go to modulator.
22:46:36Z dg9bfc_sigi and on the right side??
22:47:01Z dg9bfc_sigi network id stream id service id program number#
22:47:06Z dg9bfc_sigi ??
22:47:15Z G4EWJ Network 1, all others 4095.
22:47:20Z dg9bfc_sigi ok .. done
22:47:36Z G4EWJ Modulator Common.
22:48:07Z dg9bfc_sigi 2408500000

22:48:24Z dg9bfc_sigi tx level 47
22:48:27Z G4EWJ 250000 without a space?
22:48:55Z dg9bfc_sigi yes .. i know ... i have it without space :-) just wanted to make it easier to read
22:49:07Z G4EWJ OK. TxMODE DVB-S2
22:49:07Z dg9bfc_sigi dvbs2
22:49:22Z dg9bfc_sigi yes .. have that
22:49:33Z G4EWJ Save that and go to Modulator DVB-S2.

22:49:52Z dg9bfc_sigi 0.35
22:49:57Z dg9bfc_sigi 1/2
22:50:05Z dg9bfc_sigi pilot off
22:50:11Z dg9bfc_sigi right?
22:50:23Z G4EWJ FEC 1/2.
22:50:24Z G4EWJ Yes
22:50:32Z G4EWJ Frame Normal.
22:50:59Z dg9bfc_sigi frame normal??? do not found that
22:51:34Z G4EWJ Save that. Transmit . . .
22:51:45Z dg9bfc_sigi ok .. here we go
22:52:51Z dg9bfc_sigi txing now
22:53:32Z dg9bfc_sigi 4 db over noise .. should be ok ... not?
22:53:54Z dg9bfc_sigi (but i do not know if signal quality is ok)
22:54:44Z G4EWJ Same as before. The LDPC error correction is OK, so the transmission is OK up to that point, but it's as though the data is empty.
22:55:02Z G4EWJ Let me look at the file that I have recorded.
22:55:04Z dg9bfc_sigi moment pls
22:57:22Z dg9bfc_sigi hmmm ... changed to the front cam ... now i have some data in tx queue .. before it was near zero (and i switched on audio)
22:57:51Z G4EWJ TSReaderLite just spits it out!
22:58:11Z dg9bfc_sigi ??? means ... you can see a picture???
22:59:03Z G4EWJ Sorry - a slang term. It doesn't like your data at all. It can't make any sense of it. Try the lowest video setting with a 30 in.
23:00:18Z dg9bfc_sigi lowest setting with a 30??? that would be 1280 x 720
23:00:25Z G4EWJ OK.
23:00:40Z dg9bfc_sigi changed to 1280x720 30
23:00:54Z dg9bfc_sigi now txing
23:01:43Z G4EWJ Better. I'm getting sound but no picture. I thought you turned sound off.
23:02:05Z G4EWJ I can hear you but not see you.
23:02:42Z G4EWJ Yes.
23:03:42Z G4EWJ I can hear you.
23:03:44Z dg9bfc_sigi i switched sound on when i changed the format ...
23:04:09Z dg9bfc_sigi so then i have to look for the video settings
23:04:13Z G4EWJ 1920 x 1080 is a bit much for 250kS.
23:04:16Z G4EWJ Correct.
23:04:49Z G4EWJ I think the 29 may be the problem.
23:07:31Z dg9bfc_sigi so now changed the on air format from same as input to 640 480 15
23:07:58Z dg9bfc_sigi sound still there??
23:08:04Z dg9bfc_sigi any picture??
23:08:15Z G4EWJ Still no picture. Sound is there, but going on and off.
23:09:06Z G4EWJ Sound better now. Video still says 1920 x 1080.
23:10:42Z dg9bfc_sigi sound?
23:10:45Z dg9bfc_sigi pic?
23:11:00Z G4EWJ No pic. Sound on and off.
23:12:36Z G4EWJ Do you have a camera you can plug in?
23:13:38Z G4EWJ I can't receive you at the moment.
23:13:52Z G4EWJ You're back.
23:14:08Z dg9bfc_sigi afzter switching forma soft had toi be restarted .. thats the reason why tx was off
23:14:22Z dg9bfc_sigi upp ... lots of typos
23:14:36Z G4EWJ OK. Still says 1920 x 1080.
23:16:00Z dg9bfc_sigi hmm ... but i do not have that high number selected now
23:16:31Z dg9bfc_sigi let me try another camera .. i have one to plug in
23:17:27Z G4EWJ Sound OK.
23:19:49Z G4EWJ Sound on and off again. No pic. Still says 1920 x 1080.
23:20:14Z G4EWJ What is your video codec setting now?
23:20:39Z dg9bfc_sigi 264
23:20:52Z dg9bfc_sigi did not change it
23:20:57Z G4EWJ I see something!
23:21:20Z G4EWJ It's a mess, but it has your callsign on.
23:22:01Z dg9bfc_sigi you see my callsign ??? so we are close ... grin
23:22:24Z G4EWJ Yes. It says 960 x 576.
23:23:24Z G4EWJ I see your desk.
23:23:58Z dg9bfc_sigi now ma face?
23:24:07Z G4EWJ I see you.
23:24:24Z G4EWJ But no sound now.

23:30:49Z dg9bfc_sigi my VERY first datv transmission
23:31:06Z G4EWJ Very good. No sound.
23:31:24Z dg9bfc_sigi so ... i have to search that sound problem
23:31:45Z dg9bfc_sigi i now use vmix beztween camera and datv express
23:31:59Z dg9bfc_sigi that solved the video problem
23:32:13Z dg9bfc_sigi now to find out the audio settings
23:34:56Z dg9bfc_sigi if any can see (and or hear) me please report
23:34:56Z G4EWJ I've emailed some screenshots.
23:35:06Z dg9bfc_sigi still no sound?
23:36:37Z G4EWJ I'm losing signal lock at the moment.
23:37:09Z G4EWJ Had a burst of sound and vision then.
23:39:33Z dg9bfc_sigi now sound?
23:39:41Z dg9bfc_sigi picture ok?
23:40:20Z G4EWJ Got your testcard, but sound mostly not there.
23:43:45Z G4EWJ I'm losing you. Maybe the other signals are reducing yours.
23:44:09Z dg9bfc_sigi mayabe my amp is getting a bit warm :-)
23:44:15Z dg9bfc_sigi then it lowers outpit
23:44:19Z dg9bfc_sigi put
23:44:35Z dg9bfc_sigi habve sound now
23:44:37Z G4EWJ Try FEC 1/3.
23:44:41Z dg9bfc_sigi ok
23:45:44Z dg9bfc_sigi now 2/3
23:45:59Z G4EWJ Wrong way. 1/3.
23:47:11Z dg9bfc_sigi any copy now?
23:47:16Z G4EWJ That's better. D2.
23:47:26Z dg9bfc_sigi sound?
23:47:33Z dg9bfc_sigi or just picture?
23:48:24Z G4EWJ Less room for data of course. Video and audio but not very good.
23:49:08Z dg9bfc_sigi you have now sound?
23:50:05Z G4EWJ A little. In and out. What does you DATV-Express screen say for data rate and video bit rate?
23:50:34Z dg9bfc_sigi video 45k
23:50:37Z dg9bfc_sigi audio 64k
23:50:57Z G4EWJ Transmit bit rate?
23:51:12Z dg9bfc_sigi 164k
23:52:15Z dg9bfc_sigi even if not very good ... remember that are my FIRST steps in datv ... only a 10w amp (maybe a tiny bit more) ...
23:52:33Z dg9bfc_sigi using a six foot dish
23:52:41Z G4EWJ Nice.
23:53:05Z dg9bfc_sigi not optmized yet ... dish has no mounting!! it lays on a pile of firewood with its back
23:53:24Z dg9bfc_sigi so i am sure i can squeeze out a db or two
23:53:32Z dg9bfc_sigi when proper aligned
23:53:48Z G4EWJ Getting some video but no sound.
23:54:01Z dg9bfc_sigi also .. feed distance not optimized
23:54:09Z dg9bfc_sigi and for THAT i am very lucky
23:55:05Z dg9bfc_sigi dish not aligned ... feed distance not aligned ... low power (10w only) ... so ... i am sooooo lucky that it works (ebven if not optimized yet)
23:55:29Z G4EWJ Yes I think you can get a few more dB. I use 12W to a 2.4m at the club and we get MER 7 at 333kS.
23:55:46Z dg9bfc_sigi if you have another few screenshots ... PLEASE :-)
23:55:59Z dg9bfc_sigi i am SURE i can get a few more dbs ...
23:56:47Z G4EWJ Losing your signal again.
23:57:00Z dg9bfc_sigi calling a friend ... tell him those great news :-)
23:57:24Z dg9bfc_sigi and .. i have to find out why there is no sound
23:58:11Z dg9bfc_sigi but ok ... it was just for testing IF i can get over with such a low power ... and ... IT WORKS ... YIPPIIIEEHHHHH :-)
23:58:29Z dg9bfc_sigi g4 ... whats your name???
23:58:44Z G4EWJ Brian
23:59:02Z dg9bfc_sigi ok brian ... i have to spend you a beer or two :-)
23:59:14Z G4EWJ :-)
23:59:31Z dg9bfc_sigi or a cup??? ... c(_)
23:59:58Z dg9bfc_sigi ok ... THAT was SUPERB!!!
