<p style="text-align: justify;">(<span style="color: #ff0000;">Previous </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">Report of 28/07/2010</span>) &#8211; The new WR-G31DDC Excalibur by WiNRADIO, the Perseus and New Gemini by Microtelecom Direct Sampling Receivers, already displayed to <strong>Ham Radio</strong> Fair in Friedrichshafen 2010 (report of 28/07/2010)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>WR-G31DDC</strong> Excalibur new Direct-Sampling Receiver by RADIXON Group  Pty. Ltd. a fully-owned subsidiary of the Australian company Robotron.  Robotron is a privately owned high-technology R&amp;D and investment  company, founded in 1983.- In the commercial market, the company  operates under its brand name WiNRADiO ©  &#8212;- Link to: <a href="http://www.radixon.com/index.html">Radixon Group Pty.

</a><br />
WiNRADiO © declares that the  new WR-G31DDC Excalibur receiver&#8217;s robust front-end (ndr: no preselectors filters!) is equipped with an ultrahigh-linearity amplifier which result in exceptional strong-signal performance. An advanced &#8220;dithering&#8221; technique eliminates spurios signals without significantly increasing the receiver&#8217;s nois floor. The superior 16-bit 100 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) provides exceptional performance over an extremely wide range of signals. Frequency range 9 kHz to 49.995 MHz three indipendent channels can be set separately.</p>

Excalibur sample at 100 MHz (MSPS), but what really happens tuning signals around the frequency of &#8220;<span style="color: #ff0000;">Nyquist</span>&#8221; (100 : 2 = 50MHz) &#8211; [Note]: The figures SFDR (Spurious-Free Dynamic Range) declared by the producer is still about 107 dB. The Image Rejection 90 dB typ, with an MDS of -130 dBm @ 10 MHz/500 Hz BW. (Clik the image to enlarge  Ultra Low Jitter Clock features for the Gemini FPGA)</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The new GEMINI receiver features two RF inputs signals simultaneously sampled by the Gemini A/D converter are numerically processed at 200 MSPS/channel by a high speed multichannel digital down-converter implemented in a FPGA of <strong>Xilinx&#8217;s</strong> most recent Spartan6 family &#8211; Ultra Low Jitter Clock for the Highest Dynamic Range up to VHFs! (including the value of SFDR &#8211; Spurious-Free Dynamic Range) &#8211; Each of the two RF front-ends are equipped with a six bands pre-selection filters bank ranging from <strong>28 </strong>to<strong> 170</strong> MHz. &#8212;- Link to: <a href="http://www.microtelecom.it/gemini/gemini.htm">Microtelecom srl &gt;Gemini official web-page</a></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="more-2298"></span>La WiNRADIO © Sezione commerciale della <a href="http://www.radixon.com/index.html">RADIXON Group Pty. Ltd</a> (Australia), indica che il nuovo WR-G31DDC <strong>Excalibur</strong> ha robusti front-end (ndr: però non ha filtri di preselezione) per i ricevitori ed è dotato di un amplificatore ad altissima linearità che da luogo a ottime prestazioni anche su forti segnali. L&#8217;impiego di una tecnica avanzata di &#8220;dithering&#8221; viene utilizzata per eliminare i segnali spuri, senza aumentare significativamente il nois floor dei ricevitori (sensibilità MDS). &#8211; L&#8217;utilizzo di un Convertitore Analogico-Digitale (ADC) a 16-bit con 100 MSPS (Milioni di Campinamento Per Secondo) offre ottime prestazioni in una gamma di segnali molto ampia. La copertura di frequenza va da 9 kHz a 49.995 MHz e con tre indipendenti canali di ricezione simultanea settabili indipendentemente e rappresentati in grafica sulla GUI.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E disponibile tutta la banda di 2 MHz in DDC (in conversione digitale diretta) sia per le operazioni di registrazione che per la sua demodulazione. &#8211; Sono disponibili tre demodulatori per consentire la ricezione simultanea di tre frequenze di segnale all&#8217;interno della larghezza di banda di 2 MHz (banda in uscita selezionabile in 21 steps di banda  con larghezza variabile da da 20 kHz a 2 MHz e sintonia fine con risoluzione di 1 Hz) -<br />
Excalibur <span style="color: #ff0000;">non</span> ha filtri di preselezione all&#8217;ingresso, dispone solo di (MW filter) un passa-alto per le onde medie. Per forti segnali interferenti si dovrebbe introdurre attenuazione, riducendo anche la sensibilità del ricevitore. &#8211; Excalibur campiona a 100 MHz (MSPS), ma realmente cosa avviene sintonizzando segnali attorno alla frequenza di &#8220;Nyquist&#8221; (metà della frequenza di campionamento = 50 MHz) quando tutti i segnali al di sopra di essa si ribaltano simmetricamente sulle frequenze inferiori!? &#8211; [Nota]: Il valore di SFDR (Spurious-Free Dinamic Range) dichiarato dal produttore risulta comunque di 107 dB. L&#8217;Image rejection dichiarata è di 90 dB typ, con un MDS (Minimo Segnale Discernibile) di -130 dBm @ 10 MHz e 500 Hz di BW.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il software di Excalibur sembrerebbe ancora molto convenzionale nel settore Signal Processing. Allo stato non figurano notch adattivi, non filtri CW peak, si nota un solo noise blanker (contro i tre di Perseus) anche se può ricevere su tre canali in contemporanea e decodifiche il DRM ed altri modi digitali da integrare, come opzional a pagamento, direttamente nel software di controllo.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">Coming-soon &#8212; (a breve) il GEMINI SDR HF/VHF  Dual Channel SDR  at 200 MSPS !! Nuovo prodotto della Italiana © <a href="http://www.microtelecom.it/gemini/gemini.htm">Microtelecom Srl</a> (by Nico IV3NWV ), dotato di ricevitore a doppio canale indipendente, in unico contenitore (210 x 80 x 190 mm) sempre a  conversione diretta come il Perseus, che non intende sostituire, infatti il suo range operativo va da 28 a 170 MHz. Ciascono dei due front-end RF sono filtrati da due preselettorei analogici in 6 banchi di frequenza. I segnali in ingresso sono simultaneamente processati numericamente con ADC a 200 MSPS/channel (200 Miliodi di Campionamenti Per Secondo!) I segnali ottenuti dalla conversione diretta ad alta velocita sono implementati con una FPGA di Xilinx&#8217;s della recentissima famiglia Spartan6. Ha un Generatore di clock con basso valore di Jitter (vedere più sopra l&#8217;immagine dei parametri Low-Jitter) per una Alta Gamma Dinamica fino alle VHF (compreso il relativo  valore dell&#8217;SFDR &#8211; Spurious-Free Dinamic Range)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ricevitore per il monitoraggio delle bande HF e VHF, per rilevare la direzione dei segnali, ricevre segnali in diversità, per attività EME oppure per uso satellitare in doppia polarizzazione per sistemi di ricezione a canali sincroni, per array di fase, ad azzeramento del rumore. Attendiamo le prove!!</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>FTdx-5000 measured performance</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">→ </span>Source: RSGB RadCom  June, 2010 by G3SJX &#8211; Table 1<strong>*</strong><br />
[<strong>*Note</strong>]: here, only some of the many performances misured &#8211; <strong>View</strong> the RadCom Magazine to read the full review by Peter Hart) &#8211; <span style="color: #ff0000;">!!</span> IP3, IMD3, and Blocking figures were outstanding with the appropriate Roofing filters selected. <span style="color: #ff0000;">!!</span> The only area for concern is the receiver spurious signal rejection&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2277" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="RadCom_june_2010" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/RadCom_june_2010.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="225" /><span style="color: #ff0000;">Sensitivity SSB 10dBs-n:n 7MHz band:</span> IPO-1 →0.7uV (-110dBm) PREAMP-1 →0.18uV (-122dBm) PREAMP-2 →0.09uV (-127dBm)<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Intermodulation (Spacing 15kHz) 2400Hz bandwidth 6kH Roofing USB 7MHz band:</span> IPO-1 →IP3 +37.5dBm IMD 105dB PREAMP-1 →IP3 +26dBm IMD 105dB PREAMP-2 →IP3 +18dBm IMD 103dB<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Close-in Intermodulation on 7MHz Band 500Hz bandwidth CW IPO-1:</span><br />
<strong>Spacing</strong> →<strong>2kHz</strong> (15kHz Roofing) IP3 -8.5dBm IMD 77dB &#8211; (6kHz Roofing) IP3 -4dBm IMD 80dB &#8211; (3kHz Roofing) IP3 +33dBm IMD 106dB &#8211; (600Hz Roofing) IP3 +37dBm IMD 109dB<br />
<strong>Spacing</strong> →<strong>10kHz</strong> (15kHz Roofing) IP3 +38dBm IMD 108dB &#8211; (6kHz Roofing) IP3 +39dBm IMD 109dB &#8211; (3kHz Roofing) IP3 +38dBm IMD 109dB &#8211; (600Hz Roofing) IP3 +38dBm IMD 109dB</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1531" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="english" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/f_en1.gif" alt="" width="20" height="20" />The 9MHz IF rejection on most bands was greater than 100dB, but on 10MHz it was only 54dB, and on 7MHz it was 74dB. VRF front-end tuning improved these figures by 20dB. The first mixer image was only down by 55dB to 70dB but VRF improved this to better than 75dB.<br />
Spurs on the synthesiser resulted in a number of unwanted receiver responses, notably at approx +/- 425kHz from the received frequency at only 65dB down on the VFO-A rx and at +/- 40kHz down by 85dB. VRF improves these figures but only marginaly on the higher bands.<br />
Third order intercept (IP3), dynamic range (IMD3) and blocking figures were outstanding with the appropriate Roofing filters selected (See the Table-1*). The VFO-B receiver dynamic range is nont quite as good as the VFO-A receiver but is still very respectable.</p>
<p>Link to: <a href="http://www.rsgb.org/radcom/">The RSGB webpage &#8211; RadCom Magazine </a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1532" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="italiano" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/f_it1.gif" alt="" width="20" height="20" />La rejezione IF a 9MHz per la maggior parte delle bande risulta superiore a 100dB, ma sulla banda dei 10MHz scende a soli 54dB, e sulla banda dei 7MHz risulta 74dB.- L&#8217;uso del VRF tuning del front-end migliora queste figure di circa 20dB. L&#8217;immagine del primo mixer risulta attenuata solo da 55 dB a 70 dB, ma con il VRF si ha un miglioramento al valore di 75dB. Le spurie del sintetizzatore produce una serie di risposte indesiderate al di sotto di soli 65dB  rispetto all frequenza  ricevuta,  in particolare a circa +/- 425kHz dal centro della frequenza  sul VFO-A (main rx), ed ancora a +/- 40kHz sono al di sotto di 85dB. L&#8217;inserimento del circuito VRF migliora queste cifre, però solo marginalmente sulle bande più alte di frequenza.<br />
L&#8217;intercept point di terzo ordine (IP3), la gamma dinamica  IMD3 e la dinamica di blocco hanno valori che variano in base alla banda passante  del Roofing filter selezionato (Vedere Tabella-1*). Il ricevitore del VFO-B (sub rx) ha a sua volta una dinamica non altrettanto buona come il  ricevitore VFO-A (main rx), ma comunque è  molto rispettabile. &#8211; <span style="color: #ff0000;">!! </span>Emerge dall&#8217;articolo di Peter  Hart una questione che lo preoccupa:  la effettiva capacità di rejezione di segnali spuri del  ricevitore A.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2256" style="margin-right: 15px;" title="TS-590_Display" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/TS-590_Display.jpg" alt="" width="470" height="228" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Kenwood &#8220;TS-590&#8243; utilizes Kenwood&#8217;s proven 32 bit IF DP technology &#8211; Features selectable Roofing filters at 2.8 kHz, and 500 Hz on  1st IF &#8211; including down-conversion wtih the 1st IF at 11 MHz (<strong>like</strong> TenTec, Elecraft and Vertex Standard Yesu in the FTdx-5000 series), USB port, HF and 6M Antenna Jacks, Dual VFO Display, Automatic Tuner, etc. -</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Kenwood has not yet announced final features, specifications, pricing or availability. The model number is tentative! &#8211; The June QST on the back cover is TS-590S seems to be a picture of. This back cover advertisement Kenwood is, first. &#8211; The Legend Continues and there TS-520, TS-570, TS-590S and is introduced from above. TS-590S on the front panel seems to be why do the characters TS-590 missing. &#8211; The Next Generation &#8211; Coming Soon and there.</p>
<p><strong>Latest rumors</strong>: Size (WxHxD mm) 270x96x291 &#8211; TX Power 100W &#8211; High Dynaming range &#8211; IP3 +30dBm class at 2KHz separation &#8211; 32bit floating-point DSP &#8211; Sky Command &#8211; USB port for PC control and Sound inteface&#8230;.?? &#8212; Wait for the official news updates Kenwood!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/QST_June-10.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2258" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="QST_June-10" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/QST_June-10.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="160" /></a><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1532" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="italiano" src="http://www.radiocronache.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/f_it1.gif" alt="" width="20" height="20" />Il nuovo &#8220;TS-590&#8243; utilizza la tecnologia a 32 bit IF DSP della Kenwood, ha la possibilità di selezionare due Roofing filters da 2.8 kHz e 500 Hz BW nella 1st IF, comprende la conversione in basso nella prima IF a 11 MHz (come già fatto dalla Ten-Tec, dalla Elecraft ed da ultimo da Yaesu con la recente serie FTdx-5000), prevede una porta USB, due connettorri per HF e 6m, due VFO sul Display,  l&#8217;Accordatore automatico e altre features. La Kenwood non ha ancora rilasciato tutte le specifiche effettive, nè il prezzo. Il numero del modello per ora è un ipotesi &#8220;590&#8243;!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La rivista della ARRL QST di Giugno, 2010, sul retro della copertina, riporta la prima pubblicità per il TS-590, indicato come discendente del noto TS-520 del 1973, poi del TS-570D/S del 2000 e quindi la foto che dovrebbe essere del TS-590 perchè non riporta nel frontale tale sigla (in corso di conferma!). Questo annuncio di Kenwood USA sulla IV di copertina di QST mette in primo luogo: &#8220;La Leggenda Continua&#8221;, poi in grande: &#8220;The Next Generation &#8211; Coming Soon&#8221; &#8211; Aspettiamo !</p>
