So 'm back with some more information.
It's not a HF related issue, it never occurred during TX(everything is proper grounded, shielded cables etc. ), only during RX. Sometimes I get an error message like "Data not feed to soundcard fast enough"(during TX). But this does not stop the decode process nor the waterfall. I've been testing with some kernel parameters, these problems are Raspberry Pi related. One can effect the acceleration of different USB types (iso or asynchronous, interrupt etc.), since then I did not see this problem so often. But there should be a better error handling between different modules of wstjx. I can not trace the problem because no debug data is available. During my test I found something interesting for other Raspberry Pi or SBC users. All data, during program execution, is written to /tmp. This is a big problem because /tmp is part of the root- filesystems and this is located on a sdcard. This stresses sdcard over normal use -> defect. So one has to use a tmpfilesystem to store everything in RAM (how big???) or on adiffertent storage location. Because I did not find any config file to specify the /tmp location. 73 Frank DB5FP > I had this if I used more than 5 watts on 40mtrs, it used to knock > the cat control out as well (ic-9100).
