It's all about the Software

Hi,
pls make it possible, to disable SAM, or keep the selected mode "AM".

If I switch to AM, on the next tune to a station (i.e. point&click or mouse-scroll), SDR Console switches back to SAM.
Using 3.0.24, Airspy HF+ discovery.
Thanks!

It shouldn't switch back to SAM if you simply tune. I can understand this if you select a Favourite or saved memory, but not simply tuning. Do you have an external radio connected?

I understand you are using an external radio, do you have mode mapping enabled?

Hi,
yes, running the Airspy HF+ discovery, controlled via OmniRig from FT-2000.

Checked the mode-mapping setting. Is on "AM".

How it behaves, see here:

Yes I can confirm, point and click and the mode changes from AM to SAM.
The same also applies if you are using ECSS-L or ECSS-U it also switches to SAM.
Mode mapping is set to AM for external radios.
This is only with an external radio tracking the main rain radio.
I never noticed this before myself.

Simon, at my end it only happens with external radio enabled.
The moment you switch the external radio on it pulls it to SAM.

Same here, if I stop tracking the external radio, it keeps AM.

OK, thanks - I know where to look.
