Hi Chris, Thanks for the info. What would the symptoms of a spyverter failure be ? I tested it with a shortwave loop antenna and it picks up the local AM stations fine with sdrsharp. But some bands the spectrum display a series of evenly spaced spikes that are not AM signals. Could this be due to damage ? I posted the same question to the airspy contact address but have got no response. I have found the airspy folks to be less than helpful for other queries. --Patrick From: chris.kue...@gmail.com Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2015 16:24:49 -0800 Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Can wrong connection of spyverter damage it ?

It it quite possible that you damaged it. You should contact the airspy folks to be sure though - http://airspy.com/contact/ On Tue, Dec 15, 2015 at 4:18 PM, Patrick Sathyanathan <wp...@hotmail.com> wrote: Hi, I recently purchased the airspy/spyverter combo. The spyverter did not have any markings indicating antenna input and output. Assuming that the lettering on the top of the two devices lined up I initially wrongly connected the antenna input of spyverter to the input of the airspy and ran sdrsharp with the bias supply enabled. Eventually after much web surfing I was able to find a picture indicating the correct connection and I followed that. Does anybody know if the bias supply from the airspy could have damaged the spyverter ? Also any pointers to a forum that might have the answer would be appreciated.
