Reid,

Thanks for all you do for the community. 

I loaded Richie Samphire's version of 2.9.0.8 and discovered that it does not have a radio type for Hermes Lite 2.0

How would I be able to upgrade from Thetis v2.9.0.6-HL2 to a Thetis v2.9.0.8 that had the parameters for HL2?
And where might I look for such information or files that would contribute to adding HL2 parameters.

I can roll back to the Thetis v2.9.0.6-HL2 version. But the meters addition to 2.9.0.8 has a nice look.

I am using Thetis v2.9.0.8 with no problems. Just choose Radio Model "Hermes" and Hardware Options "Apollo". I agree the meters are very cool.

Please check that the low pass filter (N2ADR board) is controlled accordingly. If that is not right, you see output power, put are transmitting harmonics like hell.  If you have an SA, you may want to check.

To that comes the configuration of the 1MHz HPF to avoid RX over load.

The official versions produced by Richie will not have a Hermes Lite
option. I have talked to him about support but they can't support
hardware that their testers don't have.

As new code gets added to the official Thetis code base, I will attempt
to port it back to the HL2 code base. Unfortunately it is not a matter
of configuring parameters but changing code to interact with the HL2
hardware.

Now that there is a new official release, I will have to make a full
v2.9.0.6-HL2 release to remove the beta limitations. After that, I will
start porting the new code across.

Yes, the meters look well.

A touch off subject, but where can I find a forum or recent manual for Thetis? I am looking for a full list of MIDI commands.I can only find a 2017 manual.

Thanks,
Ed

Reid,

Lately I have had limited time to tinker with anything Amatuer Radio. 
So I do understand that time is a premium. 

This morning I opened Thetis on my windows 11 computer and received the message that the Beta for 2.9.0.6-HL has expired.
Is this something I can fix? The good news is I have other computers and software to connect to my HL2.
If it is just so simple as reinstallation, then I will try that after working today.

Is there a solution to this? I'm not seeing the N2ADR option either. I'm on 2.9.08 x64
