I have a couple of simple questions to the group.
I'm awaiting a SR-40 radio to come in, in the meantime I have setup several PC's to hook up the the radio, and I have installed the software. I noticed something funny last night, my other four PC's do the same thing.
While listening to a IQ recording there is practically no noise at all, this a particular recording is of a 40 meter CW contest. Even when I tune in-between signals there is no noise. I played with the squelch settings, no change, the filters are off.
My question is, when someone with a SDR1000 radio makes a recording does it record the raw band data, or does it record it after whatever filters the user has applied?
I have several recordings and they are all the same, no noise. The funny thing is on the scope you can see noise and sometimes weak signals that rise about 4 to 7 db above the noise level and when you tune them you get nothing, no audio out, even when you can see a weak signal there.
I'm using the version 1.4.4 with the Soft-Rock modifications, is there a bug where the squelch is on all the time?

I fail to see why doing the same thing over and over and getting the same results every time is insanity: I've almost proved it isn't; only a few more tests now and I'm sure results will differ this time ...
