I got it up and running but I am going to need help in conf SDRSHarp for the best signal. Again I don't have my notes available. The dongle is now on an outside wire antenna thrown up in the tree. The coax comes in the window next to my window A/C unit. That was the other restriction. NO drilling ho...

A note. I had to download all files new. NONE of the files from the "sdr dir" were on the backup DVD marked "ham radio prog's" and they weren't on the D: HD in the external USB case. So I download the latest version of everything. As to everyones tips as to what to try. I will try everyone and get b...

I just moved into a new apt in the sticks of West Richland. I now have a fenced yard with a very, very tall oak tree in it. Also I can now put up outside ham antennas. The only restriction is no permanent mounts, like a tower set in concrete. Anyways I am setting up RTL dongel on my Dell laptop. At ...

By the way is there a newer digital dongle available? I have never have gotten this dongle to decode Benton county dispatch. I have the freq's. The voice is scrambled on 1 freq and the control pules are down a few khz's. The format I think is something like P-25. I don't remember exactly.

Now it is working, now that the rtlsdr.dll is installed. Now all I need to do is fine tune the SDR software. And dongle will work better when I get my new window air conditioner installed next month and then stick the mag mount antennas on the outside part of the air conditioner. The dongle worked v...

The rtlsdr.dll isn't in the SDR folder, I forgot to copy that off the CD. I have all the files and dir's saved to a CD. I did load RTL2832U from the USB list. The Dongle that I have is RTL2832U. Install rtlsdr.bat downloads all the files and dir's to a dir of my choosing, right? If so it is all on a...

I am having some trouble getting my dongle setup. I plugged in the dongle and I didn't let the default driver setup. I next ran zadig_2.2.exe as admin and opened it up. I went into options > listed all devices. -- options.jpg Next I selected the RTL2832U in the pulldown menu rtl driver.jpg then I hi...

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 15-3541 OS windows 7 Home 32bit. I would like to find ether a HF receive only or R/T dongel that won't break the bank. I would like to have HF transmit capability other then remotely controlling a SDR transceiver via the internet. There is a half section delay on both tr...

If your going to splice coax together 1st use heat shrink tubing rather then electrical tape. I find heat shrink tubing works better. And 2nd after you have soldered and covered the inter conductor with heat shrink. Then cover the inter conductor with a small peace of aluminum foil before soldering ...

:oops: BINGO now SDRsharp works. I forgot to install the file "rtlsdr.dll" in the SDRsharp directory. It just hit me all of a sudden like a light bulb kicking on. So you can file this one away for the next person that has this problem. And you can ask them if the "rtlsdr.dll" file is installed. :D I...
