All: I don't hear a "POP", but I do sense that what is going on is that the DSP settings are being "flushed" between settings when you tweak the controls. There is a short "mute" when the settings are changed, then the audio comes back up. It also mutes when you press the encoders to change from HI/LO to Shift/Width.
Change the AGC from slow to fast and turn the BW encoders and you will see what I mean. The audio "mutes" and then ramps back up after the settings change. Its changed the controls from an "analog" feel to a "digital" feel. From a "infinitely variable" feel to a "discrete step" feel. The analog radio feel guys may not like it. The digital radio feel folks will just take it in stride as a digital artifact :) The positive result of this change is a good thing, however. Now, it takes less time for a setting to "adapt" when it is changed than it used to. Before, when you tweaked the encoders, it took a couple of seconds for the new setting to settle in and take effect. Now, after the "step" to the new setting, the new DSP setting is immediately applied. While I don't really like the muting action and the "digital step" feeling, I like the more immediate setting change as far as its use operationally. I can live with the muting action if I have to because the operational advantages outweigh the new "stepped" feel of the controls, but it would be nice if the audio didn't mute when the controls were adjusted from my perspective. On another subject, I completely agree with Ralph 'ZZI 3000% about the default mode of the B>A function defaulting to match modes on both VFO's! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make that change! -lu-w4lt- K3 #3192 --------------------- Message: 11 Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2009 18:24:21 +0000 From: Brian Alsop <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Latest FW 3.44 and the NR/WIDTH Cc: Elecraft List <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" I tried looking hard for this in both SSB and CW. The only pop I hear is when width moves to a new filter. Is there some other mode that this shows up in?
