[Linrad] Re: Error: MAP65-IQ 4KHZ not MHZ

["gmail.com; nedstearns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Joe,

There is a box in the lower left (until you move it) that lets you
enter the center frequency of your hardware. Since I use the SDR-IQ on
the 28 MHz IF of a DEMI transverter, I set the value to 28.125 to
cover the digital EME passband. With that set, I use an fadd of 116000
and I get pretty close to the right frequency on MAP65-IQ. I need to
tweak the SDR-IQ setting through LINRAD around 200 Hz to be right on,
but I don't know how to do that. The value in the box only allows 1
KHz resolution. So, I just keep track of the offset and watch the
value of DF in MAP65-IQ to decide which 1 KHz window to select for the
focused decode.
