Is anyone else experiencing problems with the Lime-Mini transmit and SDR-Console v3.0.25 64bit? Mine will transmit once but then when I click on the "Transmit" button again nothing happens. The receive carries on functioning and I can see the microphone audio bar moving when I speak but there's no RF. I have to stop and restart the Lime on SDR-Console but then it again only transmits once. "Tone", "Tune" and SSB seem to act in the same manner. I've rolled back to 3.0.19 (unfortunately the last download version I have on file - when will I learn!) and that works OK. Before upgrading to v3.0.25 I had been happily running 3.0.23 but never upgraded to 3.0.24 is it apparently already had a known Lime transmit problem. I've checked the Lime's firmware and according to the latest version of LimeSuite it's showing FW:6 HW:2 Protocol:1 GW:1.28 with no conflict. My PC is an Intel 8th Gen NUC i7-8559U 2.7GHz with 32Gb.

Working on this - testing with Mini seems OK now, looking at a few other minor issues, then I'll test with the Lime USB. Expect a kit on Friday.

Hi Simon,
please look at "Bandwidth 1.5MHz (tx)" RX does not work correctly: The audio stutters. The sampling rate could be affected.

Will do. There may be something wrong...

I upgraded from 3.0.18 to 3.0.25 today, and discovered the same issue as Chris, G4SDG. I'm using an "ordinary" Lime (non-mini).

Spent a few hours bashing my head against the problem, that'll teach me to look at the forum sooner!

Hi Simon,
tnx for the effort on the Lime topics.

Mine is working like a charm now :) No hickups or anything else while working QO-100. Had three one hour sessions with a special callsign with lot's of rx tx switching. Also downloaded a larger winlink e-mail via qo-100 and the lime which took 30-40 Minutes.
