AGC was missing from DRM IQ input. Should now work as well as Dream with weaker signals.

In the past I've been turning AGC off while using IQ mode. This seemed to improve the DREAM audio decoding. Should AGC be left on with the DRM extension or off, or does it matter?

v1.368 should make Kiwi DRM much closer to the performance of Dream. AGC was missing in the DRM IQ input path. This caused a huge loss of precision for weaker signals.

the DRM extension and the IQ extension feeding DREAM, I was easily decoding 100% audio from two slices of the same KiwiSDR on two different computers. It was interesting to notice that the DRM extens

Thanks. I'll take up your offers to use your Kiwis soon. I'm trying to get an update out where the admin can set the number of allowed "ordinary" connections when DRM is active. This

10 computer on the adjacent table that has the DREAM receiver. So I started another instance on the KiwiSDR on that computer and the DRM decoded fine from the IQ feed. So then I let the extension run

To get Kiwi DRM and Dream at the same time, are you using an AI and sending IQ mode audio to Dream via a second Kiwi rx connection? So that the Kiwi has two channels listening to the same frequency?

I've got The DRM extension running on 11695KHz and have a good signal, S5-7, but the audio won't lock. I have IQ feeding DREAM 2.1.1-svn808, faad2_drm.dll, on Windows 10 decoding 100% of the audio, so

Testing here. I have RX0 using IQ and feeding to the DREAM receiver. RX3 using the DRM extension. Both tuned to 15120KHz Voice of Nigeria. The RX0 receiver and DREAM are rock solid, without losing the

This discussion was created from comments split from: Who runs Linux for their main OS/Browser [how to run Dream on Linux].

* The stations in the India MW menu won't play because Dream xHE_AAC codec development is not finished.

I recently found a simple bug in Dream with the interface code to the FDK codec that prevented mono services from producing audio (e.g. the two-channel All India Radio 7550 kHz). But it took a long ti

Thanks for your replies, WA2ZKD can you decode xheaac Dream like in the Delhi/ Bangalore sdr receivers

@rohit Well, there is not much to say at this point. I have been working on re-packaging the open source Dream code into a Kiwi extension for about 4 weeks now. Much as I have done for other open sou

I run Dream V 2.1 on my windows 7 and am able to decode most DRM stations using AAC+ Stereo like Radio Kuwait and the latest CNRI test tx so no issues there listening on the sdr.hu web site.

Do not despair about Dream/DRM -- Santa's elves have been busy:

Dream hasn't been supported, going on 3 years now, so the newer Linux versions and libraries have moved on. You can find DREAM in the older Ham Radio repositories, and there are directions for compili

What about implementing some simple vertical filtering for the waterfall? I mean something that vertically blurs the graininess. Several other SDRs (e.g. mchf, ELAD FDM, ...) have it, should not be di

IQ mode is indeed an IQ stream with I-data on one of the stereo channels and Q-data on the other. It works fine. Otherwise things like the Dream DRM decoder wouldn't work. There is nothing to stop you

Keep on working --- the location is a dream!
