Coming from two HS Dual Hats, very bad in receiving (yes, worse than the 20mW on TX!!!). I just leaved a comment in Roger Clark blog asking for that, He and his friends are mak...

Re: Duplex hat to work as simplex

@AF6VN for dvmega and openspot obviously tried without duplexer, but tried the duplex without the duplexer and with same antenna in rx plus another some meters away in tx, but nothing different...

Duplex hat to work as simplex

Hi all, Just for doing some rx comparation, I would like to put my duplex hat in simplex mode. I read something about that some time ago, but i can't find it anymore. There was written in that case only one of the adf7021 (tx OR rx of the duplex) remain in work both for rx and tx, the other one off....

I'll try vith auto a...

Re: Suggestion for how to enable AFC in ADF7021.h

Hi, I've to add a request following this one. In my opinion, would be very useful to have in Pistar platform, settings for RX also; i.e. in ADF7021 (drag and drop from datasheet): " LNA has two basic operating modes: high gain/low noise mode and low gain/low power mode. To switch between these ...
