SDRplay Community Forum

Another vote for a larger/expandable window. The program cannot be used on my tablet.

I went back and the signal clearly disappears when I move more than 2 blocks from the approximate source, so I do not think that the signal is a 'birdie'. I am very confused about what to do next.

Any help is appreciated, Ron

I recently used my SDRPlay and SDRConsole to check out some 2M RFI. The RFI was so strong it could be heard in a scanner with the antenna removed, however the SDRPlay did not display the source (other signals were clearly visible). Some online postings suggest that SDRPLay and/or SDR software may be...

I used my SDRPlay to try to find some 2M band RFI recently. The RFI source was so strong it was heard using a scanner with the antenna removed, but the SDRPlay did not display the noise. Other signals were received with no problem. The current version of SDRConsole software is being used. I have rea...

I solved my problem. For the next person who tries, a normal micro USB to USB cable is not the same as an OTG (On-The-Go) USB adapter. Apparently OTG cables have some additional circuity required to run normal USB devices on micro USB connectors found on tablets and other small devices. OTG cables c...

Would anyone be willing to update us on their tablet models being used with the SDRPLay. I have found the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 to have undependable USB ports.

Thanks, Ron

I have a parallel thread going on this issue. I spoke to Lenovo, they had me reload a number of drivers with no luck. I ultimately hooked the tablet to a USB hub and the hub did not see the tablet, so there is a USB port issue. There are a lot of Lenovo Yoga USB problems online, so stay away from th...

Connecting the USB hub was a great idea. The hub did not see the tablet, so the problem is absolutely with the USB port. Further research has identified a slew of USB problems with the Lenovo Yoga products so I am returning it. Would you recommend a tablet which has been proven to work with the SDRP...

I understand physically which cable adapters will work, I have an adapter installed. I posted another thread relating that I cannot get the tablet to recognize the radio when connected. Do you happen to know whether USB adapters are straight-through, or do some have circuitry which might restrict th...

Oops. the connector on the tablet is a MICRO USB type.
