Hi All,
Bob, Leif was kind enough to add a "hard limiter" to linrad. This is an
old idea from an Collins radio of years ago. The control is on the FFT3
window.
I use it all the time.
I makes listening to CW most pleasant.
I adjust the volume on the FFT3 window so the HF background noise is
just below clipping and I adjust the speaker volume control for a
comfortable level.
When a signal appears it is clipped right away, keeping loud noises from
my ears :)) Also, if there is QRN it is clipped :)))
Also, I can tell how loud the signals are by how clipped they sound :))
(The lounder the higher harmonics are, the louder the incoming signal is.)
Also, the CW doesn't seem to echo around the room as much.
I have been working on a 'poor man's' 24 bit ADC. Someday I hope to see
my first one.
Happy linrading,
john
