Por mi parte ha sido COMPLETAMENTE IMPOSIBLE de configurar en dos ordenadores distintos... un montón de problemas con el COM, con las librerías DLL y con el JTDX y WSJT-X.... Ya lo tengo preparado para su devolución y reembolso... Seguiré haciendo FT-8 con mi Icom IC-7300 que funciona de maravilla! Una pena! Cuando hagan algo MAS FACIL DE CONFIGURAR y que sea PLUG&PLAY de verdad, lo compraré. Menuda BASURA! 73s

Thank you!! 72

This worked for me. Thank you. I did have to alter the script for the resolution on to clipboard, and then past it to the cli through ssh. great video. Years later and still getting likes. I will be sharing your video with my club. I am planning on donating a HamClock that I put together on a RPi Zero. It works great for this program. The only thing that runs slow, is the browser. I had to remove the mozilla and chrome and add midori. No big deal though. It's a HamClock.

Hello Paul! I can hear stations, my radio sends TX, I can hear my signal but no one hears me. Any Idea? Thanks for the video. Gabriel

Eh..the speaker was not even planed for this radio. They just added it as a "well...there's a bit of room in there...might aswell strap this little speaker on it...couldn't hurt..."

Great video. That digipi looks great and wonder if it’s a good club topic or build activity 🤓

Great video as usual many thanks. Just one thing. Could you direct me to UK Link for the Battery & cable please. As i am unsure what to buy. Thanks 73 Tony M0MTD

This is PERFECT. I bought a cheap AliExpress screen to have an always on HamClock and could not get the resolution right and this was the fix. Thank you for sharing this

Have you had any luck getting the DigiPi to work with the (tr)uSDX? I've been using the (tr)uSDX for digital modes with the same approach as OH8STN: use the (tr)uSDX USB port for CAT, and run the audio through a Digirig, so you've got two USB cables coming into your computer. Super messy! I just wonder how easy it is to hack the DigiPi to work with such an awkward setup. I know that Guido has written a USB driver for the (tr)uSDX that allows you to connect with one USB cable if you install a firmware beta. But I don't like it. Haven't had any luck running it. The OH8STN approach works.

Has anyone solved the "warning: output HDMI-1 not found; ignoring" error? Everything worked fine on the Pi Zero 2W. But, now that I've upgraded to the Pi4B, I'm getting this error. Strange. I've tried changing the HDMI # on the entry and tried the other HDMI port on the Pi with no success. Thanks in advance.

This works perfect... you can adjust it to any custom size... just play with the resolution numbers till it fits the screen ya want. I use ubuntu with a xfce4 desktop and put the line of code in the startup apps as a command and everytime it boots it runs that code to set the resolution. I'm using a pi zero2 and an old laptop screen.... it"s only for running hamclock so I don't care about other app windows looking or fitting the screen. Thanks Paul K2PMD I really struggled with this for awhile. Dave K0DLP

Hi Paul a little help, I am using Raspberry PI for hamclock, I unzipped it but then open another window showing me ArduinoLib and WS Server? Any help I appreciate. Thanks

Paul appreciate you taking the time to create this video and sharing the information. I just ordered a g90 yesterday I definitely will go digital modes with the G90; especially after watching your video demonstration using HRD which I’ve used in the past and today received email from HRD 26 January offering me a discount to upgrade to the latest version @ price I couldn’t resist 😉 Today 26 Jan 2024 ordered DE-1 especially after watching your video and Bobby W6IWN video demonstrating where each cable is attached on both the G90 & DE-19. 73 SteveAA4SH😎

Paul, I really really enjoyed your video. However, I cannot seem to get it to work for me. Everything, seems to be fine except that no one can hear me, I have also tried this with the Reverse Beacon. Still a very goo video,

Why can't you Bluetooth directly to the 705 and do this. Why do you need the TNC?

Thanks for the walk-through. Do you have to modify the line remotely via SSH, or can you just open up the line editor in the Raspberry Pi and make the change?

In FAQ 12 on the HamClock webpage it shows how to save the resolution. Use a text editor (I used nano) and run this: nano ~/.xsessionrc Then enter the resolution that works for you. In my case 800x480 filled the screen (no black bars around it) so my line in the file was this: xrandr --output HDMI-1 --scale-from 800x480 --display :0 Save the file and when I rebooted it filled the screen. I also have my raspberry pi automatically launch HamClock when it starts up by running these commands (found on the desktop tab, item 10.): cd ~/ESPHamClock mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart cp hamclock.desktop ~/.config/autostart

Hi K2PMD, do you know how I can force this command: xrandr --output HDMI-1 --scale-from 800x480 --display :0 during reboot? Now I need to SSH every time when power comes off, which is not ideal. Tried adding the command in the config.txt boot file but it didn't work and probably did it not correctly. Thx K2PMD for any additional insights.

Are you using the USB for the RTTY or are you using the 6 pin connector ?

Yes this works BUT when you reboot you have to go through it all again , it reverts back to small screen on reboot , tried a reinstall and set size to 12300x9600 but i still get small screen ?..Need some way to make permanent ..

I installed HamClock before and was disappointed with exactly this resolution issue. This video fixed it for me and now I'll put my recycled laptop display in a nice frame for my wall. This is also a great gift to pass on. Thx K2PMD and Happy New Year!

Crap video if your new to pi-star. Downloaded the software as shown. Then you left out how to extract the file to place the Hamclock icon on the desktop. Like most videos on youtube there never complete and they forget about anyone for the first time

I'm like an HR from there.

Would a Mylar blanket work for a ground plane?

Great video, unrelated question where did you get that small monitor on top of your FT-710?

Got this working on my pi zero 2w ...thanks for the video! I am using 1600x960 in the command for my 1920x1080 monitor, & I have to perform the same steps every time I boot up though. Any way to make this permanent on start-up?

A quick link to the DigiPi ham radio data modes software would be appreciated. Good Video !

Thank you for the video, but unfortunately I get an error.... warning: output HDMI-1 not found; ignoring What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for this video. I run the PI4B on a 4K OLED screen. I have the resolution on HD (1920x1080) but full screen I needed to go for a strange resolution of 1690x1010 (so no longer 16:9) but it seems to work. Is there by any change a place (I read the manual) where to set other windows on the screen (like cluster spotting etc) Thanks, Phil ON4VP

Paul I have the FT710 and same COM ports but I cant get this to work in RTTY _ I copy your configuration but no luck. Would it be OK to ask you for help?

Hi Paul, W2TIM here. I have a Raspberry Pi 4b, hamclock is loaded and running fine, but I also have the same issue. I have a 10.1" touchscreen as a HDMI monitor, resolution is 1280x800. I tried running the xrandr command but get an error: "warning: output HDMI-1 not found; ignoring". the Raspberry install is a new install, nothign else is loaded or running, it is pretty standard. Any help in getting this resolved woudl be greatly appreciated.

I would really like to know how to use the G90 with the XPA125B amp and the DE-19 expansion card. There seems to be no info anywhere on Xiegu’s new DE-19 interface, which is supposed to be an upgrade from the CE-19. I have both, but get too much RF interference to make the CE-19 work. Any suggestions?

Use the SWR Chart, it shows if the wire is long or short.

Very nice video. Two questions, loved the radio pack and would like to know it it’s available on amazon? Secondly, for your battery, did you have to make your cable with the Anderson connectors or are those available on amazon? Thanks in advance 73 de Roger W8RLP

I just picked up one of these. My HP windows 10 works the one I need to work the Dell latitude won’t sync. Do you know what USB driver is needed.

Good video. I have a New G90 and a relatively new General Class License and the DE19. Now I don't have to go get a Digirig or anything else. Once I finish the shack construction and set my rig back up I'll give FT8 a whirl. Say, do you have to unplug the box just to do phone or cw or can it stay hooked up? I cannot find any information regarding that. Hope you know. 73 KN6ZVI

Ok I have an odd question. I use a nanoVNA for tuning and have considered switching to a rig pro. I know that you can enter frequency and determine SWR. Do you have to enter frequency slightly above and below to tell which way that SWR curve is going to determine if you need to add or subtract wire length?

Well done Presentation Paul! W#BUW

This was helpful to see. I'm looking forward to trying it soon.

Nice setup! What tripod is that for the AlexLoop? I've used my AlexLoop a few times to do FT8 from hotel rooms. While they can be tricky to tune, they have such a small footprint and are easy to travel with.

Thanks, this was helpful. I'm ordering the cable for my 705 now. I already have cables for my HTs.

Paul I’m having a whale of a time getting my G-90 to work with HRD. I’ve tried digirig and the ce-19. Have tried using ic-7000 even. What sound cards have you used besides the DE-19? I hate to keep buying sound cards.

Did you not connect the window screen to your antenna mount? I didn't see any connection other than proximity.

Hi Paul what you think about this radio as a base station? For DX? Forget about the "power problem" always can add an amp. But I mean about the radio itself.. about filters , performance... I also heard that speakers sound do nto sound good.. but always can buy external speakers. Give me a feedback please.

I got an x6100 that I use with my Chameleon F Loop, my favorite antenna.

Isn’t there a new update that gives you two actual digital modes? I think it’s Upper Dig and Lower Dig now. Great video. I think I’ve narrowed down my first HF radio to the G90.

Great video Paul! I’m curious what you think about the g90 vs the x6100? Is the extra 10w helpful on the g90? I really like the display on the 6100.

I can't seem to find the antenna that you are using. Pakpod? You mentioned Amazon, but I don't see it. Can you send a link?

hi Paul, I also own a (TR)usdx and I love it. It's small and compact. I'm currently making an Endfed antenna for the 10-20 and 40 mtr band. And hope to make nice qso's on hiking tours. Fits in my backpack Ron, pd3ron
