Re: Very low volume

Well, I have no idea what I did..... I've been trying to get this thing to work for several days, all to no avail. When I gave up in complete frustration yesterday, all I was getting was baseline noise. Today, I turned it on expecting another day of continuing frustration, and it's working like a ...

Re: Very low volume

Hi jdow. Great suggestions. Do I need to use a specific colour of paraffin? I've got a box of colourless paraffin in the basement left over from when I used to preserve kumquats. They occasionally go on sale and when they do, I just can't resist buying them. But it's colourless...... I can add food ...

Re: Very low volume

And, I've tried to run SDRC on the Windows 11 computer with two different radios. A TS-570D and a TS- 590sg. Same issue with both except that the 590 allows you to share the antenna with the SDR dongle, so I can capture the incoming signal off the antenna rather than via an IF tap on the 570. It all ...

Re: Very low volume

I'll try that. I'm going to let my frustration subside for a couple of days before I try again. One new point..... I also get no signal when I attempt to run SDR# on the 2 laptops that I'm attempting to run SDRC on. One is running Win 7 and the other is running Wjn 11.

Re: Very low volume

Trying to remember, but I think that that software (SDRC) specified that the TS-2000 setting should be applied. I also tried the Kenwood setting, but it would not allow the external radio to track.

Re: Very low volume

Hi Max. Well I started up SDRC today to find that there was absolutely no voice to be heard from the software. I'm thinking that either I'm getting an intermittent IF signal from the radio, or the SDR-RTL is problematic. I receive broadcast AM and FM signals on the dongle, so I'm guessing that it's ...

Re: Very low volume

Hi Max

I've attached a screen shot. Not sure if this is adequate. Should I be shooting a screen shot of another tab?
