Get rid of the USB Extension cables - they are the problem. We are capturing all 3 sites from St Paul with 6 dongles and stock antennas. I have found those USB Extension Cables interfere somehow and we have removed them from all of our setups.

Anecdotally, I agree with this as well. I have always struggled with reception when using an extension. USB hubs haven't been an issue though. I have both a USB-C and a USB-A hub and they both work great. One has a 6 foot cable, the other has a 2 foot cable.

Cheap, thin, and presumably unshielded usb extension cables can be problematic, but thicker higher quality ones I purchased from amazon work fine.

I agree with @kb5udf i have about 70 or so dongles throughout a lot counties in Minnesota. one of my biggest issues was using Windows just because java is horrible with SDR-Trunk so now all of my towers run Linux, Also the antenna setup the RaTLSnake M6 V2 on amazon works fairly amazing.

I have the same antenna, works great!

Cześć wszystkim! Próbuję dopracować moją konfigurację SDR, ale wygląda na to, że wciąż brakuje mi wielu transmisji, a odbiór jest nieco nieregularny. Miałem nadzieję, że ktoś, kto wie o wiele więcej ode mnie, mógłby udzielić mi porady na temat mojej konfiguracji i dać mi wskazówki lub wskazówki, jak mogę ją ulepszyć. Mam teraz siedem kluczy sprzętowych, na których działa SDRtrunk w systemie Windows na 9. piętrze w centrum Saint Paul. Nie rozumiem Linuksa. Zapłacę za Twój czas i wiedzę. Z góry dziękuję!
