Re: RSP-2 antenna select via Device Control Panel?

The EXTIO control panel has an antenna selector and all other RSP specific controls.

Re: Interference identification?

I always thought that VHF/UHF will be a last resort to enjoy the hobby if things go really bad on shortwave. Of course I was wrong. Until now, analog cable "only" caused interference on single channels, like these nice TV FM audio carriers in the 2m band coming from my neighbor's extremely crappy ca...

Re: Version 1.04 and VErsion 1.12

It looks like the Atom x5-based slate caused the trouble with SDRuno. I'm currently trying another tablet/convertible (12.2", i3, active pen support) and the SDRuno GUI plays nice with it (and bandwidth/decimation/zoom doesn't cause stutters). However the biggest problem is that SDRuno needs a mouse...

Re: Sensitivity specification for RSP2?

The only related figure I know is the theoretical noise floor of -132dBm (but without specifying a corresponding bandwidth IIRC). The actual noise floor should be around that number tho (got corresponding levels at a very QRM-quiet spot), AFAIK it should be possible to translate "noise floor" to "se...

Re: Interference identification?

Heinrich I tried to reply to your PM but it seems you have opted to no receive PMs from other members. Not important though. The pulses are still gone but I have a new neighbor who obviously got his TV moved into the apartment now, it's "only" narrowband muck every few 100kHz but still - we have 4 (...

Re: Version 1.04 and VErsion 1.12

On my i7 laptop I never had any performance issues with SDRuno 1.12, today I'm trying some "convertible" tablet with Win10 and an Atom x5 something CPU and made some (kind of) unexpected observations re dropouts: - in Low IF mode, 8192k sample rate/decimation 4/1536k BW is giving me dropouts indepen...

Re: Interference identification?

The pulses are gone this morning, I just don't know for how long. Trying to locate the source using a portable turned out to be quite a challenge and I failed miserably at it, that the interference consists of pulses didn't make it any easier. Too bad we don't have anything like class action lawsuit...

Re: How to get rid of phantom signal from SDR?

When ever I open my SDR the station it was last tuned to always has a phantom signal stuck on that location on the spectrum. When you tune up and down that signal always remains at that spot. Really annoying. You're in 'Zero IF' mode. What you see is the DC spike that remains fixed on the LO freque...

Re: Interference identification?

Well this thread must be jinxed...I enjoyed mostly unharmed reception until this weekend but now... :( ...exact 1 second pulses from 0 to 10 MHz and some dense muck between 2 and 3 MHz... interference_since_20170310.jpg ...level-wise centered at 5 MHz (check the faint peak hold line on the spectrum ...
