I recently purchased an R820T stick, and would like to use it with Unitrunker to decode some control channels (not interested in listening to audio yet).
I set everything up in SDRSharp, got drivers installed and am hearing control channels/FM Broadcast, as well as some conventional analog channels.
I set the R820T on unitrunker as well, am able to get it to run, and I can hear the control channel and see activity on the oscilloscope. I cant get a site window to come up, however, probably because I for some reason can't get a good decode rate. The health jumps up to about 17, and then gradually goes down to zero. I know I should have better reception of the cc than that. I've been using my scanner to decode with Unitrunker for years.
Some articles talk about calibrating the stick. I am a bit confused on how this is done, as I am totally new to the SDR scene. How can I tweak my settings further to make this work?
This is all run on Windows 7. Thanks.
