It's all about the Software

I'm new to the group and will read past posts to see if I can find my answer, but wanting to know if RTL-SDR V3 with SDR Console to monitor shortwave down to 75 meter 3.995 is doable? I see signal on the waterfall, but cannot decode the audio....

Good Morning. I use sdrconsole v3 for almost all my receptions. Lately I tried to use sdrconsole v3 to receive radiosondes without success. The generated waveform does not allow me a good reception. I believe it is some configuration that is not...

Hello, friends...

I learned yesterday that one of my favorite DX tools (quite literally named DX Toolbox) has CAT commands implemented using the Kenwood TS2000 protocol and therefore can tune your receiver using SDR Console. It is not immediately...

Hello All,

I use Console since long time with SDRPlay devices (RSP1 and RSP2) with (almost) full satisfaction, apart the well know problems (ghosting, etc).
One of the big problem is the restriction to 8 - 10 MHz bandwith that can be received at a...

Hi there.
I have used an IOS App called WebSDR which appears to be an internet equivalent of the SDR USB + Arial option (?) in that you can tune in to all sorts of radio over the internet using the waterfall view.
As yet I know little about radio so...

I was on HF running FT8 and was noticing people struggle to copy me even when my signal was strong so I wanted to set up a monitor on my signals. At first I tried just running an AFEDRI with no antenna but I became convinced that the ugly signal was...

Hi,

The SDR I am currently using is the BladeRF Small Rev. 2 (x40). I'm very new to SDR's, therefore I apologize for my lack of knowledge if I'm doing something wrong. When I try to select BladeRF in the radio definitions the SDR Console returns...

Hi,

I've been looking for a spectrum analyzer sweeping software. Is SDR Console V3 able to take in a receiving signal and sweep across its frequency spectrum? If not, does anyone know of a spectrum analyzer sweeping software for the BladeRF? I'm...

Hi all,

I'm a new player and just getting started, so I'm sure just like the rest of you when I had my system set up I tried to listen to some FM radio stations.

I'm in the US so I tried looking for stations in the 87.8 to 108.0 MHz range but...

Trying to set the standing current at 1A on this amplifier kit. At about 240mA, the current rises uncontrollably to 8A. Temporarily connecting a diode detector to one of the transistor drains it detects 65v dc - oscillation. I've terminated input...

My favourites icons appear as a line of icons and stars instead of folders in the ribbon bar. How do I rectify this?

Just ran across this little blurb about DC-light receiver:

Tony

Some of these features make me envious :).

Just in case @Simon Brown or others have an interest, I came across this a while ago. No idea how useful.

Just very curious...

First we had audio recordings, time-shifting one demodulated channel.
Then we got I-Q recordings, time-shifting a spectrum with variable filters/demodulation.
When do we get coherent multi-RX I-Q files?

Haven't yet seen any...

Maybe nothing really exciting for some of you, but I wanted to share it anyway.
Last night I was able to receive 432 EME signals with an Airspy R2 controlled by SDR Console, feeding WSJT-X with the audio (no I/Q) from SDRC.

Can someone please explain to me the pros and cons of these two interfaces for an SDR?

Reason for question. I have an HL2 (Hermes Lite 2) with LAN interface, and the RX888 (I don't yet own) is supplied with USB 3.0.

I would have thought (from my...

I am running SDR# ver 1740 in Windows 10 and if the program runs for more than a couple of minutes, I cannot exit from it unless I use the task manager to kill the application. This happens on two different computers, both running Windows 10 latest...

I have the latest version of SDR# running but it has an audible readout of settings - every time I change the squelch or bandwidth or volume level I get a voice announcement of the setting. I do not want this but I am totally frustrated trying to...

My sdruno program freezes up every time I transmit. I tried it on 2 different computers and it still freezes up. It's works great when I'm simply listening. I tried every thing to keep it from freezing up. Don't understand the problem. If anyone...

Hi,

I have installed the SDR-Radio V3.0.24, 64-bit, 2020-07-27_0913.exe right now.
But it is not working with my device.
How can I search for the channels?

Thank you.

Hi all.
Long message follows!
I made some comparison on VLF, LF and MF (ITU designations) on
AFERDI NET
RX-888
AirSpy HF+ (2 connector)
and AirSpy HF+ Discovery
on my 135m BOG in 0 deg (due North) direction.
I made 1 1/2 minutes IQ recordings on...

Today's listening has involved my Icom IC-7300. An SDR with knobs. :)

Whilst putting my new PC through it's paces and seeing how far I could 'push' SDR Console I decided to check how sensitive the RDS decoding was by playing back an archived file that includes reception of two FM stations from Azerbaijan. (Previously...

Settings for the SDRPlay RSPdx on HF and the AirSpy R2 on 6 Meters for Optimum Digital Decoding (FT8 and MSK144)
Followed by a comparison of Decoding Performance of each SDR vs my Kenwood TS-590sg

The question has been asked, what settings should I...
