I got the dongal and the software running and all I can get is FM radio stations. I have tried CB, Air, Public service frequencies without any success. Not a word out of them just static. What am I doing wrong? I do have a question,, what dongle do you have.. if it early v3 or earlier, it make no w...

I don't really consider under 85 degrees to be very warm probably under 90 is still in the operating range, but I'm not really sure,, I never did a temp test on the first one,, just thought it was warmer than it should have been.. These two seem to be in the right range (for now) !!

Something new tonight my #2 dongle (I have labeled them 1 or 2 for the V-3) anyway #2 tonight has gone up in temp to 79 degrees... I ran it for 5 hrs yesterday and never went above 74 degrees,, I hope (will run tonight) that it isn't on it's way out. Another thing that I have found out, that they ge...

the dongles I have are as follows 1. V1.5 , works very poorly (ok for what it is) only receives fm and some 27 mc stuff.. temp 71.2 F . I did this with led head sensor. This was my first dongle. DVB-T-FM+DAB (820t2 & SDR). No sw reception of am. or much of anything elsel 2. One that is size of pack ...

I'm comparing them to each other.. as for the rest extra class ham AA0OI for somewhere around 20 years and USAF radio spy for 2 years. (6918 intelligence squadron) started at age 13 with radios (they were tubes back then) now into computers (I build my own) and just started with Lenux on Pi's b3 and...

I have received 1 new dongle V-3, and it doesn't get very warm at all,, with that being said, it also doesn't pick up as many (or as clearly)stations anywhere on the dial. I'm a little miffed ! I have another one on order and should receive within a week.. It will be interesting to see if there is a...

I have had the same problem (this one I bought on ebay) anyway it ran hot for several weeks and then just died.. you could still hear some but not much and stations were in the wrong places (fm was on 27. something Mhz) (AM was on the FM freq) and so on ,, but reception was very, very poor if at all...

As a final ,, try HDSDR, I could never get SDR# to work,, and trust me I tried everything.. Also use GQRX on Linus on a Raspberry Pi (works great and lots of fun) Increasing your voltage is not the problem.. mine, V-3 , at 6 volts works just great. I can hear everything form 500Hrz to 1.7 Ghz with s...

To tell you the truth I could never get sdr# to work properly, so I switched to HDSDR which is just out of this world.. I also use GQRX on my Linus (Raspberry Pi B3+) which works just great, but not for windows. Good Luck with SDR# I tried everything I could think of and no one's advise helped,, I j...

I am in direct sampling, but in anything else, I hear nothing. when I run [email protected] I hear nothing on those freq or, and, pretty much nothing else on any other freq. (I'm still working on it). With HDSDR the bands are full and quality is excellent. but I can switch to sharp same freq and hear and see n...
