  Here's the script I use. For recmode, anything other than lsb records correctly.

  
  

  #!/usr/bin/env bash

  
  

  ctrl_c() { kill %%; exit; }

  set -u   # Show usage of unset variables as an error to help catch typos

  #common to all

  kiwirec=~/kiwiclient/kiwirecorder.py

  kiwi_port=8073

  DL=~/Desktop/Jon_tests

  rec1freq=7255

  recmode=lsb

  min=1

  c_min=1

  #------------------------------------

  
  

  #-------------------------------------

  kiwi_IP1=mauisdr.wsprdaemon.org

  ID1=rec1

  
  

  #-----------------------------------

  echo Armed, ctl-C to quit

  min=$(date +%M)

     c_min=$min

     while [ $c_min -eq $min ] ; do

       sleep 1s

       c_min=$(date +%M)

     done

  trap ctrl_c INT

  for (( ; ; ))

  do

  min=$(date +%M)

  if [ $min -eq 54 ] ;then

    echo Recording, ctl-C to quit

       $kiwirec -s $kiwi_IP1 -p $kiwi_port -f $rec1freq -m $recmode --tlimit=60 -d $DL --station=$ID1

   fi

  
  

  echo ""

  
  

  c_min=$min

     while [ $c_min -eq $min ] ; do

       sleep 1s

       c_min=$(date +%M)

     done

  
  

  done

  Worked fine when I tried it. Make sure you have the most recent version installed. Add to the command options --log-level=debug and make sure an lsb passband is being sent to the Kiwi. In the log output below this is the low_cut=-2700 high_cut=-300 part in addition to mod=lsb
