Thanks Sakari. The only testing I did was on get_level RFPOWER_METER_WATTS on 70 MHz CW/FM. I didn't consider AM and Emergency Mode. I'll need to do some more testing, and looking through the code, but that will probably be tomorrow now.

Let's see what happens after compiled the latest one. Power commands were a bit complicated to understand in first place (from man page), but various tests showed up that: mW2power 'Power mW' 'Frequency' 'Mode' --- returns the setting of IC7300 power knob 0.0-1.0 I.E. 0-100% power2mW 'Power [0.0..1.0]' 'Frequency' 'Mode' --- returns the expected power output with power(knob) value %0-100 on used band/mode That is expected power. I.E. when running for example FT8 with low audio feed to rig you will get less power out than power2mW says. Value is stable, not depending on PTT state. You get always same result. I.E. just using given power knob % and converting it to mW. get_level RFPOWER_METER_WATTS --- returns the current output power. If PTT is off resut is 0W, if PTT is on result is the measured output power. While having RF power knob at 100% but driving side band modulation with low audio level the resulting output power is less than power% and RFPOWER_METER_WATTS can really show that when using "normal" Ham bands. Except 70MHz that is added afterwards and with used components can offer just half of rig's nominal max power. (Compare that to emergency mode! (menu/set/others/emergency/tuner) It would be interesting to test what power values then would be shown!) Without diving into C, that is not so familiar to me, I guess the measured RFPOWER_METER_WATTS conversion does not take on account 'Frequency' 'Mode' combination in all cases I.E. on 70MHz where the max output is only half, just like using emergency mode. -- Saku OH1KH gm3zza--- via Hamlib-developer kirjoitti 29.5.2025 klo 18.47: PS.

Ok! Let's see what happens after compiled the latest one. Power commands were a bit complicated to understand in first place (from man page), but various tests showed up that: *mW2power 'Power mW' 'Frequency' 'Mode' * --- returns the setting of IC7300 power knob 0.0-1.0 I.E. 0-100% *power2mW 'Power [0.0..1.0]' 'Frequency' 'Mode'* --- returns the *expected* power output with power(knob) value %0-100 on used band/mode That is *expected* *power*. I.E. when running for example FT8 with low audio feed to rig you will get *less power* out than power2mW says. Value is stable, not depending on PTT state. You get always same result. I.E. just using given power knob % and converting it to mW. *get_level RFPOWER_METER_WATTS* --- returns the current output power. If PTT is off resut is 0W, if PTT is on result is the measured output power. While having RF power knob at 100% but driving side band modulation with low audio level the resulting output power is less than power% and *RFPOWER_METER_WATTS *can really show that**when using "normal" Ham bands.

Right, I can see the issue: 1. The IC-7300 PO meter display %age of maximum power. So 50% max power is displayed as 50%. 2. The CI-V returns PO meter reading. 3. Both Hamlib and Flrig convert this value to Watts using similar look-up tables. Basically they both follow the display on the rig. 4. So for 50% max power gets displayed as 50 W, rather than 25W. Unfortunately I don't have an RF Power meter that covers 70 MHz. My 144/432 meter reads 8W at 50% max power on 70 MHz. Interesting asides: The code for IC-9700 (IIRC in icom.c) divides the calculated power by 10 for the 10 GHz. The IC-705 when operating on battery (max power = 5W) displays 100% max power, but only returns 50% on CI-V, so both Hamlib and Flrig. Obviously the CAT software doesn't know it's running on battery, so it makes sense for the Icom to handle that change. I can implement similar code for IC-7300 on 70 MHz that is there for IC-9700 on 10 GHz. I've not tested AM.

Yep! I have not updated Hamlib for a while as all I need has been working. This power output came out to view after I wrote CqrlogAlpha to show output power while transmitting. I tested quickly with flrig (2.0.04) and 70.170MHz keeping key down. My Diamond SX-1000 shows the same around 50Watts while flrig power meter (100W scale) shows also full 100W output. It climbs up with steps (~1 sec each) 20-40-60-80-100 and stays then on full 100. With AM and same frequency power meter has red mark at 20W and bar climbs up with same kind of stepping until 20W is reached. Power meter shows ~15W. So that is near the truth as I have antenna connected, not pure resistive load. But how ever it seems that flrig fails same way with CW (USB-D, FM) showing full power 100W on 70MHz. -- Saku OH1KH Nate Bargmann kirjoitti 29.5.2025 klo 15.35: > That's rather old, but the code in question appears to have been in > place since February 2021: |

Hi! While 4m opening just noticed that '+\get_level RFPOWER_METER_WATTS' gives false reading on 70MHz. USB-D with full pwr setting it gives ~90W while power meter shows just 50W that is known to max output of IC7300 on 70MHz. Perhaps there is an error in "power2mW" table (or 70MHz totally missing?). -- Saku OH1KH |

Astute observers will have noticed that I updated the NEWS file, created the Hamlib-4.6.3 branch, and updated its configure.ac to version 4.6.3~rc1. I plan to generate an rc1 tarball and Windows binaries and put them in a temporary directory on the daily snapshots page for testing. While I wanted to get to this about a month earlier, real life had other ideas! I've set a target release date of 10 June which should give a change to shake down this branch and get a good solid release out while opening up 'master' to development for 4.7.0. 73, Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
