Xpost - Problems with morse (2.5-1): edge and delay
[Posted on debian-hams but no replies over there]
Hi, I don't know how to explain this and maybe you can tell me how to
record a sample.
My system:
$ uname -a
Linux e130 4.19.0-14-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.171-2 (2021-01-30) x86_64
GNU/Linux
I had been using morse (morse-classic) for a while without any issues
but lately the sound coming from morse has ( I hope I'm using the right
words) a sharp edge and a small, but fastidious delay. For example I
launch it as:
$ morse -rC "kjwsotf" -f `echo $RANDOM % 400 + 500 | bc` -eTBq -w 15
-F 20 -n 19 -R 5
The "-f `echo $RANDOM % 400 + 500 | bc`" randomises the frequency of the
note.
I have purged and reinstalled both alsa and pulseaudio, created a new
user, etc, to no avail.
The only thing that works is:
- remove the "-f" switch, and
- use morseALSA instead of morse, like this:
$ morseALSA -rC "kjwsotf" -eTBq -w 15 -F 20 -n 19 -R 5
Ao, it looks like there is a problem with pulseaudio and one with the
randomised frequency. This is the only application that is giving me
problems.
Any input will be appreciated.
