Faulty Dongle? Faulty Software? Faulty ????

[LX-LGN]

Not sure what the problem is. 

Running Windows 7.
Using a DVB-T Dongle and RLT1090.

Rebooted laptop and reinserted the dongle as well.

Worked on Saturday.
Today not working

Below are two screen dumps from the rTL1090.

Anyone can help me with what might be the problem please.

What's the problem?  Is RTL1090 "stalling" during launch?

[LX-LGN]

Launches ok but appears to get to the line below in Mode-S

"DO260A then some symbols
Started"

then stops doing anything

Tried clicking on Mode-AC it's blank

[LX-LGN]

Right I clicked the [TUNER AGC] button and it has sprung into life BUT

1. the Mode-AC looks like this:
See attachchment mode-ac.jpg

It does not look complete


2. the Mode-S looks like this:

I'd try a fresh download of RTL1090 into a different folder and launch it from there.

If you get the same results, maybe the DVB-T has an issue or the antenna connection is bad?

[LX-LGN]

ok will try that ... thanks.

oK I have installed the RTL1090 into another folder and added the associated file and getting the same displays

[Anmer]

Sounds like a faulty device/antenna.

[LX-LGN]

Darn.



Looks like no ADSB for me until late August.

Thanks Anmer.

If i get anther Dongle ... I assume that as I have already done all the set ups before I can just plug it in ?

[Anmer]

RTL1090 appears to recognise the DVB-T so a replacement should be OK being "just plugged in".

Topman .. thanks

[LX-LGN]

Brand New Dongle ... exactly the same problem

Ideas please

Do you have an alternative PC you could try?  Installing Zadig first.

[LX-LGN]

I have reinstalled Zagzig.

I have downloaded and reinstalled RTL1090 - IMU (Installer and Maintenance Utility)

I have rebooted.

And still getting the same corrupt data  

[Anmer]

I have reinstalled Zagzig.

On the same PC?

If the drivers are messed up, I have yet to find a solution to remove them and reinstall from Zadig.

Do you have a different USB port you can try?
