Transmit

–
by Bill KC9XG
The Setup, Transmit tab is used to set various transmit parameters.
The "Profiles" dropdown allows you select various transmit profiles. The default profile is (strangely
enough) "Default".
You can modify profile settings on this tab and save them to a profile name you select, or you can
just modify the included profiles to your liking. You can recall saved profiles at a later time.

Tune:

1. The "Tune Power(W)" spinner allows you to select the power output used when the "TUN" button is
pressed on the main PowerSDR window. In some versions of PowerSDR, this is actually a percentage of power
output rather than output in Watts. The "Tun" button places PowerSDR in CW mode and keys the transmitter
using the specified power output level.
2. The "TX Meter:" drop down selects what the TX Meter on the main form displays when the "Tun"
button is pressed.

VOX:

1. Click the "enabled" button to enable "Voice Operating Transmit" if you want to cause the transmitter to
key when you speak.
2. Set the sensitivity spinner to a higher value if your wish to have a higher voice level cause the
transmitter to key.
3. Set the delay to cause the VOX to dekey the transmitter after not hearing voice for "Delay (ms)"
milliseconds.
4. Use this with care. Local noises (dog barking, TV playing, door bell, computer sounds) can cause your
transmitter to key when you do not want this to happen. Extreme cases can cause your transmitter to key for
excessive periods of time resulting in damage to your radio and attached power amplifier.

Transmit Filter:

1. This filter tailors the transmitting frequency response in voice modes.
2. The default for high is 3100hz in some versions of PowerSDR.
3. This value exceeds the frequency response allowed on 60 meters in some regions.
4. You can modify this and other values as needed before hitting the "Save" profile button to save to disk
for later recall.

Mic Gain:

This was covered previously in the previous paragraphs.
