Direct Sampling? #7

Open andrewfer000 opened 2 years ago

andrewfer000 commented 2 years ago

Is there a way to configure direct sampling for devices such as the RTL_SDR Blog v3?

markjfine commented 2 years ago

Look at second post of Issue #4

andrewfer000 commented 2 years ago

Well that seemed to work. I hope something gets put in the GUI or in a config file for it so I don't need to compile if I need a different direct sampling mode or none at all.

Also AM seems to be very quiet. Do you have any tips to make it louder?

markjfine commented 2 years ago

Not really.

Incidentally, that code that automatically sets direct sampling is particular only to the rtl-sdr and won't affect any other radio. It is required for demodulating any frequency on that radio under 28MHz. As such, there's no other GUI or configuration needed.

Well some of my older and moded dongles use the I-Branch for for Direct Sampling HF reception. I believe this configuration sets it to the Q-Branch. I would like a GUI or config file variable setting for that.
