Thank you Joe.  That did the trick.  I since found some hardware issues
inside the board stack, and I think cured them all (bad ground between
boards, DDS chip overheating when inside enclosure, etc).  I will try it
again tomorrow.

tnx & 73s

  Try this SVN release:
svn://206.216.146.154/svn/repos_sdr_windows/PowerSDR/branches/k6jca/bin/Rele
ase
  I used it for a long time with the configuration you describe and was very
pleased with it. I just checked and
  it is still there.

    I am finally upgrading my SDR-1000 system to Atlas/Janus/Ozy.  This is a
    three-board SDR-1000 (no RFE, amp, tuner).  I have been using a Flex USB
    adaptor and an Extigy.  The SDR-1000 was working fine in this
configuration.

    I tried loading the newest PowerSDR from the HPSDR svn, and it doesn't
work
    right.  I seem to have some control over the radio (power on/off, MOX,
and
    something happens when I tune arond), but no RF signals are present,
just
    some spurs and a large center hump.  I cannot even see a large signal
from a
    signal generator plugged right into the SDR-1000 antenna.

    I seem to recall a message a while back that the newer versions of
PowerSDR
    no longer support the three-board SDR-1000.  Is this correct?  If so,
what
    is the latest PowerSDR that still supports this radio, and where can I
get
    it?

    I have a copy of version 1.10.3, but it does not have the Ozy/Janus
support
    files, and won't run with A/J/O.

    If I leave everything connected, except for the SDR1000 I/Q out to Janus
IQ
    Line In, and connect a SoftRock IQ out to that Janus port, I can demod
    signals from the SoftRock.  So, it appears that PowerSDR is not
commanding
    the SDR-1000 hardware properly.

    Thanks for any pointers.
