Advanced Control Window questions

I have figured out most of SDRuno, except for these options in the advanced window:

LO Plan
DC Mode
Refresh
Tracking

I can't find any reference in the the user manual to what these are used for.
Thanks,
Stan

EXTIO V2.1 Well done!

Works great! I like the virtual sample rate option, quite helpful. It still has the annoying problem of locking up my computer when using SDR# if I should try to tune to something greater than 2.1ghz. All of my CPU cores usage jump to 100%, the computer slows down so bad the only way to recover with...

Has anyone got SDRplay to work with these programs?

Review of SDRplay in June issue of Spectrum Monitor.

Generally a quite favorable review of the SDRplay in the June issue of Spectrum Monitor.
For those not familiar with the Spectrum Monitor, it took over when the Monitoring Times publisher retired.
It is in PDF format only. I have no affiliation with Spectrum Monitor other than a subscriber.

One Major Issue with New SDR# VER 2.0 ExtIO

I have both versions 1.5 and 2.0. I'm not running the latest greatest computer, but with ver 1.5 if I were to accidentally go above 2ghz the program would politely tell me it's out of range, and I dial back the frequency and everything is okay. With ver 2.0 however it just bogs the computer down so ...

Re: IQ Correction

I've been emailing with Simon Brown, he's revisiting the SDRplay set up in SDR-Radio, and this should be fixed, also allowing access to the LNA gain setting... Paul - NN4F Thanks, for the info. I also saw his video of the new software, looks quite impressive. So far I'm quite happy with my SDRplay....

Re: IQ Correction

Thanks Dave. I've been using the V2 for a bit now and even posted a suggestion on some improvements. I guess in SDRconsole the SDRplay isn't quite optimized to get rid of the IQ imbalance. I first became aware of the problem when I clicked on any of the WWV time stations in SDRconsole. I got either ...

IQ Correction

I have noticed when using SDRplay with either SDR# or SDR-Conslole, the IQ blip doesn't get suppressed like it does when I'm using a RTL-820t dongle.
These are the only two software packages that I currently use. Is this a software issue or a hardware issue?
Thanks,
Stan

I Q Supression

I have noticed when running SDR# and SDRConsole V2 the I Q suppression doesn't quite get rid of the I Q spike when using SDRplay. If I'm using a rtl-usb stick it's a non issue. Is there an issue with my SDRplay? It's quite a hindrance when using SDRConslole and clicking on a frequency from memory. T...
