I'm a new member of the BATC and have gathered together the hardware/software required for the Portsdown DATV transmitter.
My BATC supplied Lime Mini arrived yesterday. I plugged it up via a USB powered hub as described in the wiki but the Portsdown software could not find it (Lime options greyed out). I then tried plugging it into my PC; both via the USB hub and directly. Windows(7), reported the device had malfunctioned and SDR Console was unable to find it.
Some notes:-
- The LED on the Lime flashes red/green as soon as power is applied and carries on doing so.
- Windows generates its usual cheerful sounding 'bingbong' when the Lime is plugged into a USB port but, almost straightaway, displays the pop-up described above.
- The Portsdown setup appears to work in all other respects (receives fine using an RTL-SDR dongle).
