    just got mine to work, im really impressed with the 2MHz bandscope!! I have
    the compro videomate U650F and have it hooked up to a linear rod antenna,
    picking up tons of local fm stations , taxi data, pagers, and air
    data/voice !! i can see the DAB data higher up but need the dedicated DAB
    SDR to decode it as this SDR doesnt have that feature..yet 😉

    I have the same problem reported by user janjacobs66. I followed all of the
    instructions but my device is not listed. I run the file rtl_tcp and it
    finds my device (R820T). It’s strange, because I am able to tune it using
    SDR# and HDSDR, which means the driver (Zadig) is correctly installed. I
    tried installing version 2 and version 2 beta, but I still have the same
    problem. Nothing works…

    I quite like the layout of this software. It seems to work very well on my
    RTL with 820T. The sound was a little perplexing but once i found the right
    button it was plain sailing. I think as a preview it’s very good . I used
    the Alternate setup mentioned above, this worked first time for me.I cant
    wait to see where this is heading. Great Job.

    Great, thanks 🙂 More requests… Could you do a video on installing zadig
    on Windows? Some troubleshooting advice would also be helpful if it doesn’t
    work. Some explanation about what zadig is, what it does, and why it’s
    needed would be helpful. Are improvements or better alternatives on the
    horizon, etc.

    Thank YOU! It’s great to encounter a real expert who can explain and not a
    know all who doesn’t know anything and CAN’T explain. Made my day..

    I really love your videos. They’re very well produced and are at the
    cutting edge of this quickly advancing technology. One small comment —
    that is meant to be constructive. It would be nice if there was some
    narration along with the on-screen text during the silent portions of the
    video demos. In any event. Keep up the great work!

    It looks too complicated to setup. I hope that the next releases offers
    full support for RTL-SDR’s. Thanks for the demonstration anyways.

    I’m having some troubles getting this started. Does this work as easily on
    windows? I’m doing a school project on SDRs and if I could get some more
    help on getting this running that would be great.

    I’m trying it on windows 7. Followed all of the steps and still seems to
    not be working. All of the numbers are right and everything. And I
    downloaded all 3 files from the links you posted.

    all the fun of the project was the setup
