The latest version of the GoldMaster SR-525HD “R.A.M.F SNR Reports” reporting application!
The new version is 3.15.01 (beta release)
This time, a new special function, which can almost be called the "Holy Grail" for DX amateurs, will be presented, which until now was almost only available with high-end premium devices (Unaohm, Rover, Televes, Rohde and Schwarz, Sefram, etc.), namely the LM i.e. Lock Margin measurement method!
Of course, the application also contains additional surprises and updates, the most noteworthy of which is that the application can now be integrated into systems as a browser extension. :-)
What happened so far?
It was presented, why and how important it is to have not only instantaneous measurement results, but also 24-hour measurement results displayed on a graph, since it is not uncommon for signal loss to occur even with a precisely adjusted antenna. Its causes have also been established, which are none other than e.g. the effect of the combination of low signal level and satellite wobble. Last but not least, it was detailed how this software helps to eliminate this phenomenon with a high probability.
NOW, the LM or Lock Margin measurement function is introduced:
The Lock Margin parameter is an essential part of every receptcions report, which provides information on the value at which the receptoin exceeds the minimum signal level at the given moment, and in the case of a minus sign, what is the value that would be necessary for a successful reception. (e.g. UV green markering, where a -0.3 dB signal loss is visible)
This is a very important function of the software, from now on e.g. in the case of the signal loss described above, information is not only available about the time of its occurrence and its time window, which is of course very useful in itself, but also about its extent, so it can be determined exactly what level of difference we are facing!
Change log:
* the software can already be integrated as a browser extension
* can be run on both mobile (e.g. Android, iPhone) and desktop (Windows, Linux, Mac OSX) devices
* modified user interface
(Corrected menu, value and parameter names)
*new application icon and "About" menu
Have nice weekend!
