VK3YNG Sniffer 4 Instruction Manual (for V2.2 hardware)

Configuring the Sniffer

The MK4 sniffer has a number of configurable features. Some of these have already
been described in the previous sections. The rest are explained here.

Tone (RSSI) Filtering:

There are four levels of filtering available on the MK4 sniffer. These are selected by
holding buttons 1, 2, 3 or 6 when powering up the sniffer. The sniffer will retain this
setting until the next time it is changed.

Minimum filtering (1):

This level of filtering is the same as the original MK4. It offers the fastest and most
accurate tracking of the received signal level. On transmitters with a high AM
component, the tone can become quite "thick" sounding as the tone tries to partially
track the modulation. This setting is the factory default.

Medium Filtering (2):

This level of filtering offers the best compromise between response time and
Amplitude modulation (AM) filtering.

Maximum Filtering (3):

This mode provides maximum filtering of the received signal and is similar to that of
the VK3TJN/XAJ Ultra-sniffer. While this mode offers the best smoothing of
received signals it can tend to "blur" the definition of short duration pulses.

Peak Extend mode Filtering (6):

This is a special mode for use with very short duration repetitive signals such as those
emitted from wildlife or model aircraft transmitters. The transmitters used are
typically very low power and transmit for around 40 milliseconds every second or
two. The tone pitch and therefore signal direction can be very hard to determine using
the above filtering modes.
This special mode extends the time of the peak level of the received signal so that the
user can easily compare the signal level from different directions.

ARDF/Scan Mode:

ARDF Mode (4):

Holding the "4" button while powering up puts the sniffer into ARDF mode. In this
mode the sniffer will power up giving three beeps and will synchronise the ARDF
timer. For more information see the section on the Sync Button.

Scan Ready Mode (5):

Holding the "5" button while powering up puts the sniffer into scan ready mode. In
this mode the sniffer gives a single beep during power up and the sync button
executes a band scan function. This is the factory default. For more information see
the section on the Sync Button.
