PowerSDR-IF

Here is my question:
If anyone is using this PowerSDR-IF software
with a Softrock as an IF for a K2..............

What IF Frequency(s) have you entered on that "Softrock IF Stage" tab.
for LSB, USB and CW ?

About 3 pages down from:
http://www.wu2x.com/sdr.html#gettingstarted

you will find an image of the "Softrock IF Stage" tab:

It will be in the neighborhood of 6000hz, as indicated in the manual.  The IF Freq will vary slightly if your roofing filter offset frequencies vary as you change modes and selectivity on your K3.

FYI, there's an LP-PAN Yahoo User's Group.

Sam,

I am not using a Softrock with the K2, but the principle is the same as
that indicated in the article you referenced.  The K2 IF center is close
to 4913 kHz, but will vary from K2 to K2, and the CW center frequency
will be different than the SSB filter center.

Your softrock receiver will have its own center frequency.  So do
exactly as the article says - subtract them and enter that into PowerSDR
as your initial trial.  That will get something on the screen at
approximately the frequency indicated by PowerSDR.  That can be refined
by using a signal of known frequency.
