Getting HL2 and SDR Console working together

[NB7V]

Hello,

I have been running thetis with HL2, fully loaded, for a while now. It works great, band switching the XPA-125B and all, but I want to try SDR Console. I have a couple SDR dongles I want to add to this setup to make a sweet SDR rig. But first I need HL2 working with it.

I had a problem getting band switching to the amp working initially but after installing the latest beta version of SDR console, that's working fine now. But I notice I'm not receiving any signals now. I have to power cycle the HL2 after running SDR console before thetis will receive signals and behave normally again. I can't just close SDR console and start thetis.

I notice that when I first start SDR console, before selecting the SDR, the lights on thetis are normal. But after selecting the HL2, they all go dark except "RUN". I suspect this is part of my problem but I just don't know were to look.

Can someone advise please?

thank you much 73
