KA1GJU@PCARC Server is cured!
Had a bad case of Sciurus carolinensis or Tamiasciurus hudsonicus! Grey squirrel or Red squirrel decided to chew on the insulation, and wires of the antenna about 4' from the 9:1 unun. Both ends were stripped about 2" so I wrapped the two back together and taped. I formed a loop and attached a ...

Re: SDR console and RTL dongle
Be mindful that Raspberry Pi's can be great transmitters... of HF QRM from the unshielded computer and the cheap switching power supply. I have one in the attic for an ADSB RXR and had to use FT240-31 ferrite cores on the Ethernet cable and power cable to tame the QRM. It still generates noise, but ...

Re: RSP1A Crash at 8 MHz Bandwidth
How about sharing some PC information as to the system's OS, hardware , etc. From the ribbon bar across the top, click on "Tools", then "DirectX Diagnostics", "Save All Information", and then attach the text file "DxDiag.txt". That will save you lots of typing...

Re: Super Station #1 Antenna is bad?
All complete, ~50 feet vertical and remaining +100 feet is flat top (inverted L config). Similar WWV reception on 15MHz to PCARC, Super stations #2 and #3.

Re: Super Station #1 Antenna is bad?
Yup, antenna found in a large pile at base of tree. Tension line at the far end broke at the antenna wire junction. Curently draped through 8' high branches, will make noise with air compressor once N1YGF wakes up.

Super Station #1 Antenna is bad?
Something is wrong with Super Station #1, all signals are down by +20dB. Will have to walk out and check the antenna. We had horrendous winds for two days, and may be laying of ground or in pieces. Was too dark to investigate when I discovered it this evening. Pneumatic tennis ball launcher and weig...

Re: Pre amp requires AGC to be OFF? Huh?
Did you just update the AirSpy HF+? This might be a new feature of the update? That doesn't seem likely; but, I am willing to bet it's a bug. On an HF tool the preamp is usually not needed, especially with big antennas. So that may be why nobody has run across this before? {o.o} This was discovered...

Pre amp requires AGC to be OFF? Huh?
Just noticed this error(?). When selecting Pre-Amp on/off a window pops up saying the AGC must be off? Pre-amp works just fine on or off with AGC on.

Re: V3.3 Issue
Screenshots using the "screenshot" button with the DSP panel and radio settings displayed would be most helpful. Do not place them in the text, but attach them (full editor must be enabled, below the text box). Installing updates are placed over the current version, so you are correct, set...

Re: SDR Console Not Seeing Airplay RSPdx
"SDR Console Not Seeing Airplay RSPdx" and "but crashes on "Play" Win 7 Pro 64" Kinda contradictory in terminology if you ask me. Did you get any pop up error messages or does it just freeze? Did you build a definition for it in SDRC, or delete what you had and build a...
