HF Noise Jump - Wellgood Loop / RX-888 MKII

I have been testing a Wellgood Loop Antenna with an RX-888 MKII. I've been getting impressive results, especially around 5 MHz for the UK Aero Volmets where there is a low noise floor. But I have a huge noise jump from around 8.5 MHz to 12 MHz which is active 24/7. I've turned off all electricals in...

Re: GTX 1650 Super Low Profile

If it helps others I ended up going with a NVIDIA T600 4 GB GDDR6 low profile card - probably not as good as a GTX 1650 but much better than my GT 1030.
It's working great with SDR Console and fits my HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF

Re: GTX 1650 Super Low Profile

Thanks for the reply Simon - unfortunately all of those NUC's are out of my price range.

I did spot some gaming laptops that have the GTX 1650, but would prefer a PC with the smallest possible case.

Will stick with my HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF with the 1030 GPU until I can find something else..

Re: GTX 1650 Super Low Profile

Or put another way.. what's the smallest form case I can get to fit a GTX 1650 super low profile?

I did have a quick look to see if any Intel NUC's had an onboard 1650 but couldn't find anything...

Re: Browser audio output plugin and online SDR

I found a Chrome Plugin called AudioPick, which appeared to be the solution I needed. In each Chrome tab it allowed you to choose whatever audio output you wanted. But.. when I tried to route the audio from http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ to VAC 1 it didn't work (even though VAC 1 was selectable...

Browser audio output plugin and online SDR

I am looking to use this online SDR http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ but want to open it in multiple browser tabs, each tab set to a different frequency. This is easy to do, but the difficult part is that I want to route the audio from each tab to a separate virtual audio cable (VAC). So if I want...

GTX 1650 Super Low Profile

I'm currently running a HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF, with a i7-6700 and 16GB ram. A few years ago I was searching for a graphics card that would fit the SFF case, and ended up purchasing a Geforce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 low profile card. It was one of the few cards that fit. Moving on a few years..does anyone ...

Difference between RX-888 and RX-888 MK2

I own the original RX-888 and wondered what the differences are between that and the MK2? Basically is it worth the upgrade..

Thanks
