I have just installed Bobsmeter, with PowerSDR beta v 2.0.8 on my old SDR1000 and I notice that it reads in the centre of the scale (9 dB over S9 ) on band noise with no signal present, whereas the PSDR Signal meter is below the bottom of the scale. On a local AM BC, Bob's reads +20 db over S9 and the PSDR S meter reads 1 dB over S9. The BC station sounds distorted like it is overloading, even with the Preamp set low and AGC-T wound back. I realize that the AGC and preamp should not affect the S reading and they don't. They do drop the reading for the noise on the PSDR S meter, but not on Bob's meter. The receiver seems noisy and insensitive on all bands. Any ideas why this is so?
