Re: SDR# End of support of the ExtIO interface?

More breaking (or broken) news. SDRPlay v2.2 installs and runs on build 1412 The rtl-sdr.ru has reverted back to the previous day's web page saying the plug-ins work for 1409 - but I'm sure when I looked at it previously it had said they worked for 1411. Best guess is they are fixing the plugins to ...

Re: New features requests

With the door to SDR# being (at present?) closed to new purchasers the most important new feature that SDR Play requires to make it competitive is for the interface to have the functionality of manually balancing the IQ phase/amplitude differences in order to eliminate images on the wrong side of th...

WARNING - SDR# WILL NOW NOT WORK WITH SDRPLAY

Just to make it big and bold - if you have a build of SDR# that works with SDRPlay - DO NOT UPDATE IT. If you haven't upgraded to Windows 10 - DON'T !!!! as you will lose SDRPlay functionality - and to be fair SDR# with it's plug-ins has (had) the greatest functionality. HDSDR hasn't been updated si...

Re: New Native plug-in for SDR# - "big" image problem

The most 'damning' thing about it all is that there is no warning on the airspy.com web site that the software no longer supports other devices. I found this notice on rtl-sdr.ru just now Currently (version 1408) SDR # only works with Airspy and RTL tuners. Support for other tuners may be added in t...

New Native plug-in for SDR# - "big" image problem

Well - it installs and runs OK - but SDR# build 1404 does not have auto I/Q correction. It is not a case of the "Amplitude = 1.000 Phase = 0.000" - the top header just gives the build number. It was there in build 1368 (post net 4.6). So that has well and truly sabotaged SDRPlay as it means that mir...

Re: SDR# End of support of the ExtIO interface?

At the moment SDR console doesn't provide auto-correction I/Q correction for SDRPlay (or at least it doesn't work on the FM band)and so images of strong signals appear on the other side of the centre frequency around 50dB down. I've not used it extensively enough on SW to see if this is the same. Al...

Re: Virtual Audio Cable

So far the only one I came across is VB Cable but the free version only does 96kHz sample rate - is that sufficient for your purpose? I needed to buy VAC (the pain soon faded :) ) and to decode the RDS data in FM broadcast a sample rate of 96 kHz is needed. Another possibility to explore - if you ha...

Re: SDRPlay with SDR Console Version 2.3 2194

Also when talking to Simon Brown could you hint that an unfiltered audio output at 192kHz sample rate would be very much appreciated by FM-Dxer's both on the Main console - and especially on the I/Q Data Analyser so that an external RDS decoder (RDSSpy) can be used for in-depth analysis. Your sugges...
