It's all about the Software

Introduction

Let me cite the lyrics in the first lines of the first tune on side 2 of the B,S & T album B, S & T 3 (1970).
Some of you might remember this album.

I have been kind of active here with quite a few posts recently. You might have seen...

Hello, Simon, could you or anyone please help with understanding the BugTrap dialogue buttons?
Like, presumably you have to SAVE before CLOSE if you want the dump?
I'm prompted to ask because after SAVE I tried PREVIEW but BugTrap never responded...

Are the stand-alone tx/rx windows scalable ? In other words, can they be scaled down to show the entire panel without cutting off the bottoms as shown?

I am trying to playback a I/O recording made with other software, HDSDR in this case. When I go to the select recording page it shows the recording with the correct duration but incorrect size. When I attempt to playback the file it will only play...

I am using the satellite tracking window in Console to receive WX satellite images. I noticed there is a rig control window on the sat page but I can't get it to connect with my DUOr. I have tried Omnirig and VSPE pairs but no joy. What should I...

Hello Simon,

I'm observing a strange and not reproducible behaviour of the Geostationary Satellite Beacon View. The issue is visible with 3.0.26, but I already observed it with previous releases as well. The effect seems to be independent of the...

Can someone explain this to me? I constantly get a difference in frequency between SDRconsole and my DUOR. It's off by 45 Khz, but if I tune to WWV at 10,000 it's dead on. Only seems to happen in the broadcast bands. How do I correct this??

Hello Forum,
I am very new user of SDR-Radio Console. I started a few days ago with 3.0.24 and using RTL-SDR dongle successfully.This morning I installed 3.0.26 on top of previous version, but seems to crash. So my question is do I first need to...

Version 3.0.26 32 bit won't start, reports missing files:
mfc140u.dll vcomp140.dll vcruntime140.dll

I reinstalled V 3.0.24 32 bit and that version works ok.

I did the installation/reinstallation twice to be sure a microsoft update hadn't screwed...

Hello.
This problem is not about recent version. I was having the same problem with previous versions also.

I have latest version of sdr console right now on windows 10 64 bit.
2020-12-14_23-02-28.png is the rtl-sdr model I am using.
When I start...

Screenshot-2020-12-15-061341_LI.jpg Just installed 3.0.26 and IF Display isn't symmetrical around 0 anymore.

This is probably a really trivial matter, in which case please quickly send me packing :D.

Screenshot A (LOWER) is a clean SDRC window.
Screenshot B (UPPER) shows an extra border just below the title bar (near the top of the menu tabs) and...

Recently I did field recordings over three nights with an Airspy HF+ Discovery and SDR Console v3.0.24 to capture non-directional beacons in the <500 kHz spectrum.

The first two nights, the bandwidth for the radio and recording were both set to 384...

Hello,

Re the small IF Display screen you can call up above the Mode selection buttons:

Haven’t really looked at this small display seriously before.
It mimics, as one would expect, the tuned to freq. in the
large Spectrum View.

In both...

Hi Simon,

Receivers: Airspy R2 and HermesLite 2
What happens is that in all modes, except FM modes, the audio dies out after a few seconds, but only when using filters higher than about 800Hz.
Example: Airspy tuned at 40 MHz, mode USB, filter 2.8...

Is there anything I need to specifically do when swapping from an sdrplay RSP1a to a RSPDX or will things 'just work'?

Hi Simon.
The starting time of the IQ-recording window is slow at high loads as mentioned in another posting. I will describe what I see in more detail here.

I use SDRC 3.0.25 to display the 9MHz IF of my FTdx5000 as a panadapter. SDRC is automatically launched when I launch Logger32, my logging program.
Sometimes, maybe once in every 4 of 5 start-ups, SDRC starts maximised on monitor 1, rather than...

Hello everyone,

I've just read the release notes for the upcoming 3.0.26 version that Simon is preparing and I'm got really glad of seeing the MPX output feature. Bravo!!!

On the same line, I'd like to kindly suggest - if possible and aligned with...

I have a ‘main’ identity and 1 other. While in either, is it possible to switch to the other without shutting down and reopening the software ?

Thanks,

Where is this data stored? I deleted the database and it still appears as station over a thousand miles away.
Or is this an error in the RDS decoding or is WGIR in Manchester, NH sending bad data?
I notice some stations are correct, and others are...

When using SDR Console v3.0.25 the other day, I inadvertently clicked where I shouldn't have, and closed the Receiver pane on the lefthand side of the screen (i.e. the one showing the frequency, mode, filters etc).

When this closed, the...

Hello Simon,

I have a marker I set the other day Horizontal Net (incorrect frequency) left of the second marker that will not delete from the program not listed in the marker organizer. I also have a second Horizontal net (correct frequency) listed...
