    SDR USB Hub recommendations

    Update: it looks like it might be 158.820 according to Chittenden County VT Fire Departments - Scan New England Wiki , though 158.805 looks more promising in the FCC database. I haven't verified anything yet (they only get about 50 calls/year) but I'm keeping an ear out for it.

    What Software/App Would People Hear Recommend To Decode 5 Tone Signalling?

    I don't know much about this, but since nobody else has replied yet: (from What is 5-Tone Signaling? - Icom Two Way Radio FAQ's ) I believe multimon-ng or maybe the original multimon can decode at least some of those formats. https://github.com/EliasOenal/multimon-ng ^ link to the project...

    The "for dummies" version of that thread's solution for increasing the limit on memory available for USB devices: Open a terminal window and run sudo su (type your password if asked, then run: ) echo 1024 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb That's it! But if you reboot you'll...
