Hi Dave,

Thanks for all your help. The usual thing mended the problem. Not Ctrl Alt Del, but on/off the router! This has not happened to me before but might help others with a similar 'fault'.

Hi Dave

Tried Limemini2 first with DATV easy, I got a feeble output around 50db down from normal but it worked.... just

Then tried Portsdown
Updated to latest Portsdown
Updated to lime latest
Applied the DVB firmware, but I bricked it, need to recover it (was this step unecessary?)

Keep up the good work

Cheers Roger VK5YYY

Hi Roger

Apologies - I wrote in the LimeSDR Mini V2 article for CQ-TV (soon to be published) that the DVB firmware is not compatible with the LimeSDR Mini V2. I should also have put that in the forum post. I'll see if I can disable the ability to apply that firmware in the software as well.
