Inconsistency in par_ssb in 64bit Linrad-05.02

[Scott T]

Running 64bit Linrad-05.02 with a working setup on SSB.

If I 'x' out of SSB the current parameters list shows:  "First FFT bandwidth (Hz) [10000]"

If I then go to Change Parameters ('P') the header says:

"SSB:  Rx channels =1  fft1size=32768 (Bw=122.070312 Hz) Radix 2 DIF C"

and the listing of parameters underneath says 

"First FFT bandwidth (Hz) [100]".

If i click on First FFT bandwidth, the change page says "Old value = 100.00"  If I actually change it to 10000 Hz then fft size=512 (Bw=7812.5), and the main waterfall is now incredibly (unusably) fast with little frequency resolution.

The par_ssb file also shows "First FFT bandwidth (Hz) [10000]"

Bug?

Thanks,

Hello Scott,

This is not a bug, it is a consequence of laziness. Originally
the minimum bandwidth was 1 Hz and the parameter was stored as an
integer. When I found that bandwidths below 1Hz woud be needed
for some specific purposes I did not rearrange everything to store
the parameter as a float, I just left it an integer with a
value one hundredth of the actual bandwidth. The text describing the
parameter is used on screen as well as in the file so I can not change
to ".01Hz" instead of "Hz" without difficulties.

LOL well at least now I have the decoder ring. 

thanks!!
