Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

Well, today it works, and the only thing changed was that I got an update via the FSK Development kit. Problem solved for that radio. Pretty cool, it receives almost to 8G.

Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

Nope, I have attempted with a few different antennas, including a Hex Bean on a roof tower down to a various whip antennas. Just to assure you, my other radios do not have any issues using these antennas. Today for Grins I tried my Anan and my MB1 and Elad Duo on my Hex and G5RV without issues. It i...

Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

Sorry about that, that's what happens when messaging on a tablet. The EXITO is recognized however, there don't appear to be any signals. Its the same on both programs, receiver appears to be deaf. That said, I am also having the same problem with an Ettus B200 on SDR Console, it likely is something ...

Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

Oh, and yes the radio EXTIO.dll works on HDSDR, but something, it's like it's deaf to the world.

Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

Changing the gain didn't help, its like it's running, but blind to signals. I will try with a different antenna this week, known good and on a band with known signals and see.

Re: rx888 mk2 no receive

While the MKII seems to be up and alive for me, it doesn't look like it is seeing any signals. Any thoughts?

Re: RX-888 USB3 problems

Here are some screen shots of the radio in both programs, note the lack of signals. I also seem to be having the same issue with the Ettus B200, no signals, despite the proper antennas being mounted

Re: RX-888 USB3 problems

So the 3.0.27 version does not crash. I dont feel like its getting any RF though except interference. HDSDR EXTIO has same result, radio connects and yet I dont see any signals. Its so odd! How do you select which antenna it uses in either program?

Re: RX-888 USB3 problems

So I have the RX-888 MKII and it crashes SDR Console 3.0.26 when I try to add the definition. I will add some screen shots next time I can capture them. Ironically if I select 666 it will load the definition. It doesnt seem like its really receiving though, just the single spike ever center of the d...
