Greetings, I have just installed my new SDRplay, purchased at the 2016 UK National Hamfest. Really impressed, installed first time and up and running with no problems. This is my first use of any SDR kit and want to use a Virtual Audio Cable for data decoding to another application. Any recommendations on which VAC to use? I'm running Windows 10 on laptop.

Try VB-Cable or HiFi-Cable from Vincent Burel

It's donation ware.
You can also use VAC from Eugene Muzychenko.

It's commercial.
If your PC's soundcard has a Stereomix pin (sometimes this must be activated in the recording devices setup of Windows) you can feed its output into the decoding softwares. Then a VAC is only needed if you want to decode digital audio (like DRM radio).

A Thank you from me too. I hadn't researched this yet and now I don't have to. :)
