Hi folks, Today I managed to get my Linrad setup working. Got hold of another sound board (another CMI PCI) because I thought the ISA board I am using could have been the problem. Configured the boards in YaST, launched Linrad - still no sound! Spent another hour on the new mixer settings and then frustrated decided to reconfigure Linrad. And that was it! (SuSE 9.1, svgalib 1.9.19, ALSA) Now I am trying to get used to the different modes and controls. Two things I am not happy with: I find the sound is not very comfortable to listen to. The audio is a bit rough to my ears and sounds slightly distorted at times, although the gain graph says it is between the two valid limits. I am missing the parameter boxes on my screen (fft1 avgn, Waterfall avg, etc.) I have other small boxes, having only the figures in them, but pointing at them and pressing F1 tells me what they are for and they are functional, means I can change the parameter. Any idea? I have no permanent EME setup here so I cannot compare the results to another receiver. Right now I run Linrad at SSB bandwith, but I have plans to go for more. Will send my setup parameters to the Data base later. Tnx for support: ON5GN, KJ7F, WA6KBL, F9HS, N4HY and others.
