KDSP2

wd4lst
Hi All,
Just finished and installed the dsp module I picked up at the Orlando ham fest. Wow - this is a great addition. I was concerned about its usefulness, as I operate 98.25%cw. My only other experience with audio dsp was with the dsp module in my Icom 718, which I found pretty much useless.(again, for cw)
Much experimenting awaits to optimize it for my tastes. Right off the bat, it seems like I could preset some center frequencies of the AF filters above and below the ST offset to create an illusion of passband tuning steps.
Its a good thing the default tables are in the manual!
I did notice the header pins on the dspx are a little long on the 2x10 header, as mentioned recently on the reflector.
I will remedy that next time I open the lid, as I am now starting a KPA100 (courtesy of the gang at booth 60 again)
73s,
Pete

Pete,

Congratulations on the KDSP2 success.

Cut about 1/8 inch off those long KDSP2 pins - do it now.  The only long
pins are on the double row header side.

If you forget to do it and install the KPA100, the shield will contact the
KDSP2 and cause damage.

73,
Don W3FPR
