I recently set up a RSP1A with a Raspberry PI 3B+ running CubicSDR and have a question about the spectrum settings. Is there a way to change the lower limit of the vertical scale? I can adjust the total range of the vertical scale, but if I want to zoom in on a very weak signal in an averaged spectrum I can't because I can't move the averaged spectrum down. Or at least haven't found a control to enable me to do so.

The documentation for CubicSDR can be found here: http://cubicsdr.readthedocs.io/en/latest

If you have an issue that you can't find a solution for in the documentation, you can raise it here: https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/issues

It seems to be an enhancement on their Too Do List.

Have you tried Gqrx instead?

It offers that ability and more, I've been using it for weak signal work (it's much better suited to that sort of use than stereo FM for example) though I've not had a chance to pop it on a Pi yet I have been using it on both Linux and Mac. Binary said to be available at the link above.

It's a cute app, the settings windows tear off and can be repositioned, in case you don't notice at first glance.

For anyone reading this it also appears to offer TCP remote control which I'm longing to have a go at but am time starved at the moment. Looking at the command set it may make a promising scanner: http://gqrx.dk/doc/remote-control

Not just SQL but AOS and LOS! Wouldn't it be ABS0LUTELY GRAND if SDRuno was to offer similar functionality.

I found a card image with gqrx that I haven't had a chance to try yet. I should get a chance this weekend.
