WiNRADiO G33DDC HF Receiver
102
At the top of the window, you can add the task description or name in the
Description
edit box which will then appear in the task list.
The next item to specify is the
Frequency
for the receiver to be tuned to.
The next items are
Start time
and
Start date
. This is when the task shall be
executed, for example a recording will commence.
After this, you will need to specify whether you wish for this task to run only
once (select
Run once
), or whether this is to be a repetitive task (select
Repeat
). If this is to be a repetitive task, you can select the repeat period in
terms of days, hours and minutes, and the ending date (using the
Until
control).
If the task is to be performed only on particular days of week, you can select
those days of week on which the task is to be performed. (By default, initially
all days are selected, so you will have to deselect the unwanted days.)
Then there are three choices for the type of action for the Scheduler to
perform: You can either run a special-purpose plug-in, an external application
program, or make a recording. The last option,
Record
, selected by default, is
the one that is most commonly used. The file name edit box allows to chose
the recorded file name and the actual recording file format (for more
Information about recording formats, please refer to Appendix G).
If the recording action is selected, you can then select whether the recording
should be of the demodulated
Audio
or
DDC
. DDC recordings have the
advantage of containing much more information, making it possible to “re-
receive” many stations in the recorded spectrum that can be up to 4 MHz wide.
If Audio recording type is selected, you have also a choice of the demodulator
filter bandwidth (DEM BW)
– an identical control to the one in the demodulator
window. For DDC recording type, this control can be used to select the DDC
recorded bandwidth.
For Audio recordings, the
Mode
,
Squelch
and
Audio filter
controls also
become enabled, making it possible to set these parameters, similarly as they
are set under their respective tabs during normal receiver operation. If squelch
is enabled, the recording will be paused while the signal is below the squelch
level.
