    Hi, I’m new to the world of SDR & need help with getting software to run. I have a Linux Mint machine & I’ve no idea what I’m doing. I download packages that seem to need more & more packages, yet I always end up running into fatal errors, sooner or alter. I’ve been trying for 3 weeks.

    Is there any SIMPLE way to get GQRX or Linrad to work? I read user comments that say “Had it up & working in 2 mins” but I can’t find anything that deals with the problems that I’m facing.

    At this rate I’m going to have to dust off my old Icom RC8500 & repair it.

    Thanks for your help.

    I just received an RTLSDR+ upconverter from an estate sale, I know nothing much about it. What software do I need to use to make it operate. On top of the unit it says 100khz to 1.7GHZ Very wide SDR receiver and has two sma connectors.

    I am picking up sound from the room when my stereo-amp with two speakers is on so I get a strong feedback-loop when I listen to my RTL-SDR. I can hear the echo when I tap the amp.
    It spawns strong frequencies everywhere from 50mhz to near 300mhz. Can someone explain this? It would be much appreciated!

    Scanning stops and I get “CAN NOT ACCESS RTL DEVICE”. This error is not listed in the RTL-SDR book. Can anyone help?

    I cannot get the digital portion of SDRSharp to work. After installing the simulated audio cord it no longer allows me to access the set up to put it in “Record”. I am using a Dell Inspiron 15 with Windows 10
