Darrin KE9NS did release P-SDR Version 2.8.0.149 supporting the MCP23017 I/O expander. Big thanks great job! Automatic bandpass selecting / hopping now also works for the "XVTR" bands 2200m and 630m. The Flex1500 needs external Bandfilters for 137 / 475 kHz i.e. below 482kHz the bandfilter section is bypassed. 2200m and 630m are added as XVTR bands and use the BNC port XVTX/C for external bandfilters and antenna. in TX the output is about 0dBm over the XVTX/C port The I2C flexwire is connected to MCP23017 I2C i/o expand band switching The MCP23017 external slave address lines: A0=A1=1(Vcc) , A2=0 Then 474kHz /630m band GPIO A0=low A1=high = 3.2V and 136kHz /2200m band A0=hi A1 =low The GPIO are active high in on state so the circuit can be kept very simple. Only output A0 is used To switch the small relays of my dual bandfilter only an TUN o.c. is needed GPIO A0 active high 3.2V...
