Re: World Map 1.2.9
Hi Simon,
Thanks for v1.2.9, in particular for adding bearing & distance display for stations, a very useful feature addition. I use World Map a lot for Navtex DX activities as it provides a neat way to display pretty much all that's needed; the stations, time, terminator and space weather data. I maintain a Navtex station data suite for the Navtex DX community and I've been including World Map 490 and 518 Navtex station files as part of it for a while now. A feature request if I could be so forward; any chance you might consider adding the real time Dst index to the propagation info. provided; https://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/dst_realtime/presentmonth/index.html? It's a useful propagation pointer for those of us who DX below 1MHz (NDBs, Navtex, MW & LW broadcasting, that sort of thing). When the Dst spikes upwards, that can be an early warning of a subsequent drop/plunge into -ve Dst figures that often means MW propagation is in trouble. The deeper the dive into -ve territory, the more trouble we're in. On the other hand, all other things being equal a relatively stable Dst hovering around zero is generally a good thing for <1MHz propagation. Thanks!

But I'm not talkng about NTP. My point is still valid. Using a GPS is trivial and it suffers from far less latency compared to NTP.

Re: LimeSDR Mini 2.0 is Now Live!
Siegfried Jackstien
if you compare a non moded pluto with a lime or lime mini ... then you are right ... lime has better stability but near all users either feed in an external clock or replace the clock in the pluto ... and then i think the pluto is better (after modding) greetz sigi dg9bfc

Re: Windows 11 Visibility
Anyway,
Have applied a workaround / force refresh, seems to solve the issue. Expect a V3.2 beta in a few days...

Just FWIW the latest W11 update has slightly affected the desktop manager - when using a multi-monitor setup and using the top-right buttons to move to a different monitor Console is not redrawn correctly. I don't see
this on W10.
I have no doubt that this will be fixed in a future W11 update.

Re: LimeSDR Mini 2.0 is Now Live!
jose maria trueba
Specs of both are similar in general, but I think Lime is much better because clock stability in Pluto is inadmissible for SSB and CW. At only 12 bit and considering the very many spurs I think that none of them are good enough for a serious HF nor a VHF transceiver. But both of them are very good toys to play with at UHF for TV and satellites because a high dynamic range is not required, once Pluto gets the required replacing of the TCXO which is not too difficult but implies voiding warranties and the risk of ruining it. By the way.... I never heard of reliability issues from none of them.

Thanks that did the trick. I deleted the SDR Console folder in the registry. Back online ! I was worried maybe microsloth had rendered my machine unusable with SDRC, my favorite toy. I suspect something got touched though, as now SDR# is throwing an error message about .NET ... hmmm Thanks again ! Paul N8CVW -- - + - + -

Re: SDR's For Sale. Maybe Other Equipment, Antenna, ETC.
Hi, no problem about the Hermes. I don't know where you're located but probably not in europe if you think that its too far away from you for shipping. I haven't advertised it anywhere else except Simon's group so far but no doubt I'll mention it elsewhere when I get a chance to do that. Somebody else in this group might still take it anyway so I'll see how that goes. Apologies for not getting back to you on your first message I didn't see it till late last night, I had to fish it from my spam folder. My gmail account is brutal for junking at least 1 or sometimes a lot of messages from active threads that I'm reading. Again apologies about not seeing your first message. Very Best Wishes and Very Best Regards to you and your Family. 73 John. Stay Safe and Stay Healthy.

Re: SDRC 3.1 won't Start Up, hangs with 'Satellite Screen' displaying
OK,
Could also be that a change in monitor resulted in Console starting up way off screen. I'll add a sanity check in V3.2.

Re: SDR's For Sale. Maybe Other Equipment, Antenna, ETC.
Hello Andrea, I am from Glasgow in Scotland so obviously still in the uk. I still have all or most of the original packaging for the wellbrook loop and yes I will be selling it. The model is the ALA1530LN, I think I bought it in 2020 but I am not 100% sure of that. The loop has never been mounted outside and has lived in my loft/attic from I bought it. I paid between £260/£280 pounds for it but I won't be looking to get anywhere near that amount back for it. Because of the size of the loop the shipping will probably be more expensive but I'll adjust the price of the loop for you so that you can hopefully get a good price from me. I have no idea of how much the loops sell for second hand but because I don't really use it my price will probably be cheaper. Simon I think I remember that you were a fan of the wellbrook loops and maybe you could have some idea of what 1 would usually sell for. Andrea I hope to be able to get a price for shipping it out tomorrow and if i can do that I can get back to as soon as I can get a reasonable price for shipping. If I don't get a price tomorrow because of the celebration over here in the uk I will definitely get a price for you as soon as the celebration is over and people are going back to work as normal. Andrea I will do my very best to try and get the loop out to you. Very best wishes and very best regards to all. 73 John. STAY SAFE AND STAY HEALTHY.

Hello Charles We in Europe can't buy Wellbrook antenna from England because of the Brexit: for small enterprises like Wellbrook it would involve a big amount of money an burocracy to continue to sell over Europe after that "unexplicable da**ed thing". For that reason, and for the well known performances of the ALA, I'm interested when someone sell its. John, are you still thinking to sell yours? BRG 73 de Andrea IN3IWZ

Paul,
See: https://www.sdr-radio.com/reset You don't need to uninstall, just reset the registry etc.
You could also try a new identity.

I'm hoping someone else has experienced this startup/launch hanging problem. I'm running WIN10/64, and have been using v3.1 18MAR22. This morning External Radio stopped responding so I rebooted. After that SDRC just hangs on launch. I tried latest version from 12APR22, same hang. I uninstalled (WIN Uninstall App) and reinstalled twice, with reboots. Unplugged USB devices as those have caused issues. Is there a way to Uninstall that totally removes all prior presence, ie, registry entries, "ini" files, etc ? In the past, after reinstalling SDRC still "knows" about previous settings, radios that were installed, etc. I suspect there's no group help for this, my installation just "curdled" as my programmer used to say.
