Dear Isaac,

I have signed libusb0 drivers in my KISS branch on the KISS SVN repository.
This is at:

svn://64.245.179.219/svn/repos_hpsdr_kiss/branches/K9TRV/libusb0-driver-sign
ed

Download and install.  This will work on Win7-64.  You will have to click
and approve in a dialog that says that the 'certificate' is unknown.

There are some other signed libusb drivers at:
http://home.ict.nl/~fredkrom/pe0fko/SR-V9-Si570/index.shtml#install<http://h
ome.ict.nl/%7Efredkrom/pe0fko/SR-V9-Si570/index.shtml#install, but I don't
know if it's actually libusb0 or libusb1 (an updated version that KISS and
PowerSDR have NOT been tested against).  I do know that the Ozy/Magister VID
and PID are NOT mentioned in the pe0fko.inf file, so I don't think it will
work anyway.

Be aware that on 64 bit windows 7, you WILL (and MUST) be using a 32 bit
build of PowerSDR, as the various C DLLs that PowerSDR uses are only 32 bit
DLLs.  And you are prohibited from mixing bitsize (eg: 32 bit code and 64
bit code) under the same executable.  That's a Microsoft thing...

I think that Bill KD5TFD's latest build of PowerSDR has been marked as 32
bit.  Otherwise you'll get some message about 'cannot find dll' or 'sizes
mismatched' or something similar.

Let us know if you succeed...  Otherwise, let me know what the problem is
(exact error messages) and we'll see what we can do to help!

Vy 73,
George Byrkit, K9TRV
