Elad FDM S3 Crashing

Unfortunately I am also haing a problem with the S3 crashing randomly, and I have to restart the S3 to get it to work again. It's the same whether I use the Elad software or SDR Console. My laptop uses Windows 11, and I have more than adequate cpu & gpu to run the software. This only happening s...

Elad FDM S3 Sensitivity on FM

Since the beginning of this years 'E' season, I have noted that sensitivity of my S3 is not as good as it once was. A weak FM signal in slightly noisy mono on the Airspy Discovery is completely inaudible on the Elad. When I first installed the S3 last year, sensitivity was on par with the XDR, SB920...

Re: FM Breakthrough on Elad FDM-S3

Perhaps, just the final few words to say that I did report this to Elad just after my last post. To date, one month later, I have not had any reply.

Yes, signals are strong. I am approx 17km from Sutton ...

Re: FM Breakthrough on Elad FDM-S3

Thanks for the replies. The only front panel light that is lit up is the ON light, I am not using any antenna bias. I have not fitted any filters, in fact I have never even opened the case. And I don't have GNSS enabled. There is no FM breakthrough if I disconnect the FM antenna, which of course I c...

FM Breakthrough on Elad FDM-S3

Suddenly my S3 has broadcast FM breaking through from long wave up to the actual FM broadcast band (87.5MHz). I was listening on MF when it started. I have not changed anything on the S3. I have a Wellbrook loop and a high gain FM antenna connected to the Elad. The breakthrough is present on both SD...
