TBS6903x:

If I select this card and start all modes are grey.

If I selct another card, maxgraph and then the TBS6903x the mode jump back to super detailed HR and all selectable modes are grey again.

I know, the spectrum never work with this card, but why jump it to another mode

The blind scan works with the usual speed of this card

At the end of the blind scan, the spectrum window looks like that of the TBS6925 - empty.

In my case, IQmonitor 1028 worked better in HR mode with tbs6903x, and I think I got a hopefully good spectrum.

This time, the app locked and displayed the parameters correctly on an S2X mux. This is the first time this has happened with this card.

The program loader has been improved, functions for selecting a receiving installation for each satellite (including calibration curves) have been added.

Place the program configuration files in the configs directory.

To change the configuration, use the Config button or click on the satellite image.

The file system has been heavily modified.

Calibration is done in all full range RF spectra.

Noise Level set at the level of Max Level Calibration Curves.

RF noise spectrum compatible with HR BlindScan.

The key for full access to all functions of the program will be available only to forum participants who,

when downloading the program, left thanks and publish their results of using the program on forum .

Good luck!

Thanks to all 36 who uploaded files.

Special thanks to those who tested them and published their results here - it helped me a lot.

I don’t know, either due to frequent voltage fluctuations (outages), or due to the enabled voltage increase modes in StreamReader.ini, my processor began to overheat and the computer turned off spontaneously and did not restart ...

After a 3-day absence of light, heat and water, today I managed to enter the BIOS by turning off the video card.

As I thought, the computer was set to hard overclocking mode.

After setting the standard modes, I was able to access the forum from the backup monitor.

Draw your own conclusions.

I deleted the archives with files, which I advise you to do too.

There will be a new version soon - save your energy for it

I join stephan in paying tribute to your dedication to work on IQmonitor, Yuri.

It's a shame we can't help more.

Blindscan low symbol rate (12605-12612 V) at 10.0E with IQmonitor v.1028, Crazyscan and EBSpro

Maximum graphic resolution and HR spectrum with 6983 cards at 42.0E. HD spectrum came out better after scanning with IQmonitor 1028.

Hi, strannik, Hi all!

I have two "trivial" question, please help to me.

Firstly. I need using, the IQmonitor latest Pro version, how download? Not found the downlink me in the forum...
Second, this article https://filatov-yuri.livejournal.com/16846.html noise reductions.
This horn, applicate to PFA dish? If yes, how to?

(Sorry, the my basic questions.)

Best regards,
SaTom

This horn is used on an offset dish, but you can try it on your PFA.

look at sites to made truncated cones or rockets

The ratio of the inner and outer diameters of the truncated cone is about 1:1.5

Height of cylinder and truncated cone 1:1

Everything must be electrically conductive.

Thick sheet metal cannot be bent in a shapely manner, thin sheet metal crumples quickly, which is why I put the project on hold. Machining on the lathe would also be an option.

strannik deleted the last versions, there was little interest and the 1.0.2.7 in particular was still very buggy, also due to the power supply in Kyiv.

I chose Eutelsat 33E at 33.1E to blindscan it in HR mode with IQmonitor 1028 because there are many transponders with the S2X extension, and at the same time, it also works in DVB-S2.

Unlike previous versions, blindscan in this HR mode worked well, and I could lock them.

I didn't understand why I got an excellent feeds report on some transponders and others, absolutely not at all, although the spectrum looks ok.

Maybe it's inappropriate to post here, but out of curiosity, I scanned this part of the band with neumoDVB on Linux, and the scan time was only 13.50min. With IQmonitor, regardless of the settings chosen, this scan takes a very long time. But I must admit I managed to get a good spectrum. At least, I think so.

In the meantime, I also scanned with the 6902se card in Maximum graphic resolution. Only what you see in the screenshot can be obtained.

I see that for 11256H on 33E the SR is reported differently between IQmonitor in Windows and nuemoDVB in Linux?

To avoid debating this topic in this thread which has another purpose, I will move it to 6903x's thread (#143)

Thanks to you and everyone who tests the program!

I don't have much time to write, but I carefully review your publications and it helps a lot in improving the program.

Now I have made an automatic search for tokens on constellations in the DVB-S2X modulation area.

Now the HR spectrum will display these transponders.

As a bonus, transponder locking has improved, weak subthreshold transponders can be locked even in automatic mode.

Greetings, Yuri and other DXeers.
If this post does not belong here, please admin to move it.

I tested both the TBS6903X V.2 and V1.2. The results are the same for both cards. The latest version of IQmonitor already renders the spectrum nicely, even with this card. (It's a pity that other scanning options are blocked, but it certainly has its meaning.) I was surprised that the spectrum in CrazyScan does not match the transponder frequencies. The IQ monitor draws them correctly. The sensitivity of the TBS6983 and TBS6903x cards is approximately the same. Unfortunately, none of them reach the sensitivity of the TBS5925.

Used latest versions of CrazyScan, IQmonitor and Streamreader.

The comparison is in the attached pictures.

CrazyScan:

TBS6903x: TBS6983:

TBS5925:

CrazyScan automatically adjusts the signal level range. In the part from 3610 to 3750MHz, I have LTE Internet interference, that's why the shape of the spectrum is like this.

Hi Peon ,

A little problem with your message

Only one image is visible ( TBS5925) ,

all the others are not visible.

It is difficult to make a comparison.

Hi Stephan, I have everything displayed, six pictures with a description. I don't know where the mistake is.
