[hpsdr] Ghpsdr3 questions

[John Melton]

Hi Gar,

as the code is still really in an alpha development state you should
build the code on your machine.  I expect the problem is that the bin
directory contains either the 32 bit or 64 bit binary and you are
running the other version.

In the N6LYT/ghpsdr3/trunk/doc directory there are 2 documents that
should help:  "N6LYT Online Mercury Receiver.pdf" and "info.pdf".

By default the preamp is off when the server starts (see the info.pdf
for the command line arguments).  You may need to update the Mercury
FPGA to the latest multi receiver code to work with the ozy fpga code
that gets loaded.

Regards,

John g0orx/n6lyt

I downloaded everything from SVN repository, and attempted to run the pre built executables in /trunk/bin ( the wiki said there were prebuilt binaries in the download).  The server, client(s) binaries would not run ( no error messages, just a message to the effect that the binaries will not run).

You cannot turn the preamp off from the rx gui.  The only way to fix it is to plug the usb into the windows or mac machines and start up PowerSDR or MAChpsdr which seems to init the preamp properly  (off).  After that, I can then plug the usb back into the Linux box, start Ghpsdr, and use it normally.
