Hello green512. If no device is listed and the board's USB3 cable is plugged in... I guess you do not have the USB driver installed. This is needed on windows. You can find the whole SW setup sequence that I've used here with all links to downloadable drivers and SW: https://discourse.myriadrf.org/t/limesdr-can-be-not-recognised-when-connected-to-a-pc/1325/2

Step 07-IQ-calibration is no longer available using python scripts. You have to search that forum for latest info on that topic.

I have installed the USB driver andPothosSDR in my PC. The device can be find by cmd as fellow:

soapysdrutil --find
