    SSB AM & FM Modes

    Member ✭✭
    in SmartSDR for Windows

    Hello I am looking at the radio menus and searched through the smart SDR manual and looking for the controls to changes modes from ssb (usb and lsb) and AM and FM modes. Can someone tell me where the setting is on the radio and in the manual. I am doing a lot of reading and watching you tube videos.


    Thanks

      The advantage to reading PDF's from laptops or tablets as that our manuals have links in the table of contests and on many other pages to take you to the pages of interest with a simple click or tap.


      Also, you can use the "Find" feature (CTRL + F) to search for topics of interest.

      You can't do that on a printed page. But you CAN put yellow sticky notes in a printed manual!

      I often reprint the manual at Staples (here in Canada) and I get it bound with a spiral binding. This makes it easy to fold over.

      It usually costs me about $30 for over 200 pages as long as I don’t print it in colour. Black and White is good enough for me.

      I am not seeing that.

      Mode selection is available at several Locations. On the Panadapter/Slice, and on the "RX" control panel.

      You may not have the bottom half of the slice flag displayed as in this sample:

      If this is the case, click on the mode button (which is shown as USB in this sample), and the bottom half with mode and bandwith selection will display.

      Thank you I got it now.

      Also note that if you click on the "A" in the upper right corner of the flag, this will result:

      To restore the entire flag display, click the "A" again.

      Craig, that's a new one for me. I never ran across that "feature " before. Thanks for posting.

      New to me as well! I guess I should be clicking in more places...

      As someone I used to work with said: "just keep clicking until you find what you need" or somthing similar.

      “Washrooms make great places to read user manuals”. (not my words)

      At least no one disturbs you.

      Very hard for me to read PDF over a computer screen. So I took all the manuals I could find put them on a USB drive and took them over to Staples to have them printed and put in paper back. Yes I do like to read.


      Thanks.
