Hi all.

The improvements to the reporter's filters in version 2.2.0 are great.
It would be helpful to see this update in the Internet Reporter, too.
Even when you make the best possible use of the available filter options, it is becoming increasingly confusing sometimes.

73, Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Done. See below:

(you may need to push Ctrl-R to get the latest HTML/JavaScript that implements the idle filter)

Thanks,

Wow👍 Great to see Mooneer.

Thanks, that really helps those of us working via the waveform with no software instance open.

By the way, I found that using the waveform on my iPhone (13 Mini with the internal mic) produced significantly better TX audio than using the iPad (which produced the worst audio of all) with a headset and the Flex M. It's not as 'crisp' as using the Flex itself. The same applies to incoming audio from others working via the waveform. The audio is much sharper than via the software. AGT-T is set to 0 and AGC is set to slow.

Hi Mooneer,

just wanted to give you a report on the new feature.
Unfortunately, there is no difference between selecting "active in the last * minutes" and "disabled".
Even stations that haven't been active for days are shown.

Cheers, Stefan

Hi Stefan,

I took the following screenshot at 10:50 AM my time:

And here's without the idle filter turned on:

According to the above, the idle filter appears to be behaving as expected. Are you able to send a screenshot so I can better see what's going on?

Thanks,

Hi all,

Can the "Bands" filter include the whole band? Example: We in Australia have settled on 7045KHz.

There, we only experience a little CW.

Also, the reporting for "freedv-ka9q", the "text" string, there isn't a command line option for it.
Thus, Reporter cannot mention the current band the SDR is on. And, since the frequency 
"freedv-ka9q" reports is outside the "band" eg 6900KHz because it's the SDR centre frequency,
never is reported.

A small niggle, otherwise great work. The SDR RADEv1 decode is fantastic.

Hi Alan,

The band filters for the Web version of FreeDV Reporter are currently as follows:

// Handles frequency changes

freqToBandClass = function(freq) {

    if (freq >= 1800000 && freq <= 2000000)

    {

        return "band-160m";

    }     

    else if (freq >= 3500000 && freq <= 4000000)

    {     

        return "band-80m";

    }     

    else if (freq >= 5250000 && freq <= 5450000)

    {     

        return "band-60m";

    }     

    else if (freq >= 7000000 && freq <= 7300000)

    {     

        return "band-40m";

    }   

    else if (freq >= 10100000 && freq <= 10150000)

    {

        return "band-30m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 14000000 && freq <= 14350000)

    {

        return "band-20m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 18068000 && freq <= 18168000)

    {

        return "band-17m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 21000000 && freq <= 21450000)

    {

        return "band-15m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 24890000 && freq <= 24990000)

    {

        return "band-12m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 28000000 && freq <= 29700000)

    {

        return "band-10m";

    }

    else if (freq >= 50000000)

    {

        return "band-vhfuhf";

    }

    else

    {

        return "band-unknown";

    }

};


If these need to be adjusted to reflect band plans in other countries that may have been missed, let me know and I can do that.

Re: KA9Q: there is the ability to pass a specific frequency:

However, I can see how it wouldn't be ideal given how long it takes for RADE decode to start. Adding the ability to adjust that dynamically might be a longer term effort, but adding the same message capability as the Flex waveform might be doable quickly.

Thanks,

-Mooneer K6AQ

Hi Mooneer,

now the band selection doesn’t work properly.
Think the time filter works now, but…
Confusing (hope the video shows that too).

Mooneer,
just wanted to let you know, that on a windows 11 system it's working all good (but isn't used here primarily)
Mac (MacBook/IpadPro) have the  mentioned  issues.

Due to further "investigations":

"show active in the last -15 Minutes", saved 16:20, shows these results: screenshot
Is the filter perhaps meant differently?
Shouldn't the stations be completely invisible without any TX event?

Thanks, Stefan

Hi Alan,

Currently working on adding reporting message capability to the KA9Q integration: https://github.com/drowe67/freedv-gui/pull/1179. Let me know if you run into any issues.

Hi Stefan,

Try going to the FreeDV Reporter page again and let me know how it goes (you may need to push Ctrl-R to fully reload the page). I fixed some bugs on there that may have been contributing to the issue (mainly that the server should be tracking the connect time, not relying on when the client thinks that someone connected).

Thanks,

-Mooneer K6AQ

Good morning Mooneer,

as i can see (on the IPad) so far☕️:
As soon as a filter is set, the band selection crashes and all stations on all bands are visible.
That’s reproducible, also after a restart of the browser.
I’m going to check the other devices today.

Thanks,

Stefan

Can you PM me when it's ready to download and compile the code for "freedv-ka9q"?

I've set the "freedv-ka9q -f $FREQ" to 7160001 for 40m so it's "in band".

Hi Mooneer.

Update:

it‘s working fine now on the Ipad with Firefox, which is the standard browser here.
On the Macbook it’s fine with Safari, not with Firefox.
PC: Firefox has still issues, but i have no other browser for testing.

Nothing changed on the MacBook with Firefox so far. Non of the bandfilter working.

Hi Stefan,

I'm not sure if the columns themselves can be shrunk at all without making it look worse on mobile devices, but I moved the controls to the left hand side so they're at least easier to get to:

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi Mooneer,

it helped that you moved the filter to the left in any case👍
It is so, that the aspect ratio doesn’t fit, only when no time filter is set.
I found that the size of the message column produces the issue.
It‘s much narrower only when a time filter ist set.
On the other hand, does it make really sense to have the „RX Mode“ Column? 
TX and RX are usually the same at the end?

Thanks and 73,

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

RX Mode can still be different if one were on the legacy modes for whatever reason, hence why it can't be removed right now. This is something that can be discussed if we do get around to removing those modes, though.

Just got around to checking in with Firefox this morning and whatever you have done fixed the problem.  Works perfectly now!

While I am at it, thank you for the reporter when we are using the program. It is a super help especially during the 40 meter net 
on Tuesday evenings.  

Thanks.

Hi Mooneer,

Is it possible to keep the filter row visible at all times?
By scrolling down it disappears.
To change a filter, you have to scroll all the way back up.

It would be useful to be able to select more than one band or to have a 'favourite bands' setting?
The same applies to the software reporter. 

Thanks and 73,

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

I investigated this a bit and I haven't found a good way to do this yet, but I did add a button that appears on the lower-right corner when you scroll down that will send you back to the top. (You'll need to clear cache or push Ctrl-R to see this.) Let me know how this works for you.

Thanks,

Hi Mooneer.

Thanks for trying to improve it.
Actually, I see the same effect as a double-click at the top of the browser?
Anyway, it was just an idea to make the reporter a little clearer, since you sometimes have to scroll far back to the filter selection. 

I have the feeling that the main window has become wider again, and horizontal scrolling is needed again?

Cheers, 
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

I didn't know about the double-clicking at the top, actually. Probably still a good idea to have that other button since this wouldn't be obvious otherwise. 

Re: column widths, it's going to depend on who's logged into FreeDV Reporter. Might be good to implement resizing over the long term, but not much time at the moment.

Thanks,

Hi Mooneer,

as far as I know, double-clicking at the top works on touch screens (iPad/iPhone).
Yeah, the other button is helpful on the desktop versions, which is great.
I get it. The main issue is getting it to run on different browsers and operating systems.
I understand that this is all very time-consuming, in addition to your actual work.

Thanks, and don't stress.

73, Stefan
