Re: SDRPlay and Rasbury Pi

Re: Need help with lots of duplicate signals

Try starting with about 50 dB of gain reduction as a starting point an tweak from there. Thanks. If I reduce the gain at all, then the noise goes way up and the waterfall is overwhelmed.

Need help with lots of duplicate signals

I am running into the same issues and am having trouble picking up anything (just broadcast FM, local weather, and some airport chatter). In my case, I am pretty new to this, so im not sure if I have some settings wrong, or maybe just live in a place with basically 0 reception. I am mostly using SDR...
