After much frustration (as I'm not a coder) this is starting to come together. UI much better and will improve futher. Now on to TX implementation.

Another 20 hours into this. Audio took a lot of work to eliminate dropouts. S meter next as well as tidying up the UI.

Once I'm finished implementing remote operations for my hybrid station. I am going to look into swapping out SRDC for SDR# pending sync possible with my TX radio.
Replying to @lambdaprog
And something NN based NRs can't touch...

We have audio! This was recorded from my phone. Still minor dropout issues to overcome but its pretty good.

Glitchless spectrum and waterfall working remotely now. Currently adding spectrum/waterfall display controls like SDRC.

Finally! Live spectrum display working remotely. Its not perfect just yet, just some UI and minor visuals to modify.

For weeks now, been developing remote operating for my hybrid station. Its finally moving though long way to go. Hardest bit so far is getting the spectrum display from SDRC onto the remote.

Staying south of the Forth, its rare I get to cross the rail bridge. Nice short layover at Inverkeithing too. Just long enough to pick up a nice Latte.

Be warned, always use the supplied the well sheilded #airspy usb cable if you TX. Learned the hard way. I will likely rejig my shack to allow for these shorter cables but for now I have chocked both ends of these longer cables. Normal service has resumed.
Twin #Airspy RX setup ongoing. I needed longer USB cables so opted for sheilded @STARTECHdotCOM cables. Next job is to tidy up the power supply to both SDR Switches.

1.0.4 now. Project saving much improved. drive.google.com/file/d/1g0i…
If anyone want to try out HF Antenna Studio 1.0.2, here is the link. Note its still WIP and not signed so you need click the "run anyway". Windows x64 only. drive.google.com/file/d/1sAm…

Experimenting with the Phased Vertical array module within HF Antenna Studio. For for 3/16 spacing it looks promising. Just over 3db of gain difference vs a single 1/4 wave & a very nice F/B.

Hey @thsottiaux, I'm a plus user who only uses about 40% (if that) of my weekly limit. I occasionally use Codex within this. The 5hr limit is killing me. Can we get more usage through the day or similar? I cant justify a pro subscription.

Working with Codex to build a standalone simple to use visual antenna modeler. Pre loaded with basic models. Forked from existing open source sources.

Some say @HB9VQQ is a myth… turns out he’s real! 😄 Had the absolute pleasure of meeting HB9VQQ in person tonight. Great to finally put a face to the callsign. 📻🍻
