What are you trying to do as root? SDR-Touch and the SDR drivers don't need root. Are you using a USB OTG cable?

If it's due to a very large RF spike you can add an attenuator, or if you can find out what frequency the spike is use a filter. Another option is a power limiter. e.g. https://www.seeedstudio.com/Power-Limiter-p-1444.html.

Usually to mitigate condensation you don't make the box airtight. You get a waterproof box, and drill a hole in the bottom. Then connect it to a short straw like pipe, or provide an additional non-airtight rain cover. Also cover the circuit with conformal coating spray to reduce the risk of condensa...

Did you run install-rtlsdr.bat in the SDR# folder? Double check that rtlsdr.dll is there.

Probably a MPT-1327 trunking channel https://www.sigidwiki.com/wiki/MPT_1327

Hmm it might just be an rtl_tcp issue then. I've seen rtl_tcp be quite buggy sometimes. But yeah see if it happens to SpyServer too, and ideally with a direct connection.

Haven't seen anyone try yet. Some concerns i'd have when choosing the potting material are heat transfer, and making sure the potting compound doesn't degrade and become hydroscopic (this happens to a few potting compounds).

Might be easier to just use a waterproof enclosure instead.

What sort of applications are you looking for? You can try CubicSDR, that's similar to GQRX.

Yep the same case, just without any markings.
