I have just released an update for the Portsdown 4 which includes the latest, most reliable, version of the LongMynd receive software, and also adds the "5th harmonic mode" to the Portsdown Pluto Signal Generator, extending its coverage (at very low power) to well above 10 GHz. The full list of notable changes:
- LongMynd software now recovers from slow tuner VCO locks and does not freeze.
- Pluto Signal Generator has a "5th harmonic mode" potentially providing a signal source up to 30 GHz.
- The user's original Langstone Configuration file is restored after a Langstone update
- Langstone stop command (on selection from Portsdown) has been removed to prevent the Langstone hanging during start.
I would encourage all Portsdown 4 users to perform this update, as there have been a number of new features added recently.
