ZADIG-2.7

[humblegeo]

Trying to add a second Dongle for use with SDRTrunk. The original dongle was added as Bulk-In Interface (interface 0). Should the second dongle be added and driver installed as Bulk Interface (Interface 1) ? I'm using one of these powered usb hubs which has 7 usb connections. Maybe I should just do away with that since I already have plenty of extra unused USB Ports on the computer. Is it complicating things? Appreciate the help

you should only need to run zadig once per computer

Ok so just plug the 2 dongle in and it should show up as an additional tuner in SDRTrunk?

make sure both are plugged in before you start sdrtrunk

Simple as plugging them in. I have been hesitant to flash them with unique serial numbers, but it would help to assign specific tuners to specific antennas. I can monitor trunked systems on 170, 450, 7/800 MHz

I’ve done it. 100% worth it when having 4 sdrs hooked up at once. After I reserialized them, I wrote on the cases with marker the numbers I used.

You NEED to rename them, very easy to do.

It doesn't look that easy

Here's a link, if Zadig has been completed, start at Step 2. How to Change Serial Number of DVB-T Dongle

How to Change Serial Number of DVB-T Dongle

Check that task off.
humblegeo, It is not bad. I had to do one to be confident I was not going to break anything. Follow the link in Chris ABQ's post and you will be fine.

I like to rename mine to their required PPM values then put a label on each one with this info also.
For example 2 of mine are called "RTL_Black38" and "RTL_Blue65".
When I use each one I know I need to account for these values in whatever software I'm using.

Have you tried this link lately. Keeps telling me Link Can't be Downloaded Securely (windows 10)

I was able to find the link with a google search and download and run the program but when I get to the point of double clicking on the change-serial.bat file that was created with the New Text Document folder, it opens up for like a split second and then immediately closes....instead of staying open. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but obviously something. I'm going straight to Step Two and starting there and not at Step one. I did have all three of my dongles plugged in at the time since I had been using them earlier with SDRTrunk. When the Command Console was opening and then closing immediately I decided to unplug 2 of the dongles so that I only had one dongle plugged in....same results. Maybe I should start with Step 1 instead of going right to Step 2.
