Hi,
I have WACARS and a Realistic Pro-25 scanner.
I have connected the scanner to the LINE-IN port on a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop via a 3.5mm jack from the scanner earphones output and fired up WACARS. I am getting good signal strength on WACARS (half way up the scale, green) and have tuned in to frequencies 131.725, 131.525 and 136.900 in turn on the scanner and left it for periods of up to 30mins but I am getting... absolutely nothing.
I have tried selecting "Use 38.4KB/Sec Sound Driver" and "Use 44.1KB/Sec Sound Driver" (in turn, not together). Occasionally a little bit of junk pops up in the RAW log but generally this is blank.
The input on the laptop is set to line-in.
Am I doing something stupid? Can anyone help?
N.B. I have tried using AGWPE to define a TNC as well.
N.B2 The version of WACARS I have appears to be (c)1999. Is there a newer one? Do I need a newer one?
N.B3 My location is South-East Essex (c.London) UK
