Hi Simon,
I'm getting an odd occurrence whilst recording in v3.027 with my S3. Randomly the waterfall will turn red and the audio goes very weird (see attached screengrab).
. It's almost like it suddenly overloads.
This happens when there's no interaction with Console by me. The only way to get Console back to normal is to stop processing and restart.
I have attached a log file from when this last happened. I'd be grateful if you could have a look at the log to see if there's anything glaringly wrong.
Thanks
Mike

Re: Elad S3 - Weird Problem
My guess is a USB data rate. Also make sure you have the latest S3 firmware.
Would be interesting to see the screenshot while the S3 is running - that shows CPU load, GPU load etc.

Thanks Simon,
Here's a grab while Console is running. I've moved the S3 to its own USB3 pci-ex card to see if that helps if it is a USB data problem.

Re: Elad S3 - Weird Problem
P.S. Is there newer firmware available? Not seen any on the Elad site.

Re: Elad S3 - Weird Problem
Please show the FFT info: Ribbon Bar, View, Waterfall Extras, Statistics. Looks like a strong signal close by overloading you.

Ah, I've just deleted all of yesterday's files to make space. If it happens again I'll get that screenshot for you.
Thanks

Mike,
Anyone transmitting close by? What about Wi-Fi routers?

Re: Elad S3 - Weird Problem
No pretty sure there's no-one TX'ing near to me. The beam is pointing directly over the sea most of the time. My wifi router is in my shack but not had any problems with that, at least not that I'm aware of.
Been running Console (recording full Band 2) for about an hour this morning on the USB3 card and no problems yet.

OK,
Does look like a very strong signal close-by talky-walky or some-such.

Re: Elad S3 - Weird Problem
It's possible of course, but that probably wouldn't explain that stopping Console processing and restarting cures the problem for a while.
