Re: [IRCA] Timed Recordings using the SDR-IQ Receiver



Also deleting a number of files each day doesn't take long.

Les,

Back when I used the SDR-IQ, I used a scripting program called AutoHotKey
to automate TOH recordings. I wrote a description of the process in my blog
back then:

http://dx-nexus.blogspot.com/2007/07/scheduled-recordings-with-spectravue.html

It works by doing the keypress that starts the recording in Spectravue,
sleeps for a predetermined period of time, then presses the stop key. You
use the Windows Scheduler to run that script at whatever time you wanted
the recording made. If you're interested I could point you in the right
direction to set it up.

If my understanding of SpectraVue is correct, the software would record
TOH events throughout the entire 24 hour day period, resulting in a lot of
daytime recordings that I don't want or need. I'm hoping there is a more
elegant solution out there. Craig, N6IO on the SDR-IQ e-mail list
recommended the HDSDR software:

http://www.hdsdr.de/

HDSDR is freeware, written by Alberto di Bene, I2PHD.

It appears to be powerful software that supports a variety of receivers
including SDR-IQ, SDR-14, Perseus, Funcube, Q1SR, WinRadio, etc.

I'm at work right now, so am limited to looking at screenshots, but it's
clear that the scheduler is much more robust than the basic functions
offered by SpectraVue. Going to try it when I get home, and will report
back.

P.S.
   The timed recordings have been in SpectraVue forever. The "repeat every
xx minutes" feature was added in June per the release notes distributed
with SpectraVue.

   As written to Les on the list yesterday:
         "Les:
         You didn't mention looking at the timed recording feature in
"Output Setup" of SpectraVue.  Any reason that won't do the  job?
         Chuck"
     Haven't heard back from Les.

That's what I thought Chuck.  So "repeat time" is, um, where, and in
what version?

Thanks.

"Repeat time" is a feature of which program Chuck?  I've probably
overlooked it somewhere...

Thanks.

Les -

That's what "Repeat Time" will do: repeat the recording every 60
minutes if you wish.

Chuck,

At last check ( some versions ago) it limited you to setting up only
five recording events. That won't cover the entire time period that I
need. I'd really need recordings to start here around 1600 Local and
go
until at least 0600 Local.

I can investigate SDR-Console, and other software, but my hope was
that
someone was already doing this and could shortcut that process.

I've long considered purchasing a Perseus SDR, but have no idea how
I'd
ever manage to review all the data. Even if I only recorded three
minutes at each TOH across the AM dial, that still leaves almost six
hours of audio to wade through on a daily basis. Just not

possible on my
schedule, and I doubt it ever will be. Six hours just gets you through
the top of one single hour of "real time" on the band.

With the SDR-IQ, recording it's maximum of 190 KHz, I still end up
with
19 channels to review, meaning at least an hour to review just one
hour
of "real time" information.
