Do you want me to fix the crossed out stuff in that earlier post it then tidy the thread up sd (removing your subsequent post & this one)?

So ...looks like this will be a bit more involved than I thought ..
Mainly because I am using an older version of SDR# that is still compatible with SDRplay ..
..and the version of # Im currently using was built with an earlier runtime library ..thus the plugin fails to run.
Could one of you kind gents please tell me what version of SDR# is needed ...and either a link to it or upload it to a drop box or somesuch..

I used the one that came from Airspy Download I'm not sure which version as I can't get to the PC. However, I have not tried it with JAERO and an RTL stick. Everything else is ok with the RTL though. I have multiple versions of SDR# on the same PC in separate directories.

Looks OK. I'm not sure about the audio outputs as I use VB-Audio virtual cables but if it gets to JAERO then it must be OK

It is using VB cables G ..
Virtual cable 4 to be exact ..but Left and right channels merged on VB4 I'm hoping ...for the two vfos ..

..and 10500 bps burst x2 at Jaero..
I'll untick L for a while ..and see if any data is transferred ...
Then test R in the same manner..

54W uses VB2 ..
15W uses VB3
25E uses VB4 Left and Right ...
VB1 is reserved for 15W Lband ...from the Homebrew Helical..

Not the best time of day to set up multi channels ...
Targets are a good way off optimum relative to the equator ..
15W is more or less active with 2 channels left and right ..
Multiplexing GES43 and GES 44 T channels ..so I'm pleased so far ...maybe later tonight I'll try 54W ..

1443 but I think you can add the SDRSharp.RTLSDR.dll from older version and <add key="RTL-SDR (US:cool:" value="SDRSharp.RTLSDR.RtlSdrIO,SDRSharp.RTLSDR" /> to FrontEnds.xml and the new version should work

Download latest version (1464 as i type) then download and install Modified front end from List of SDRSharp Plugins - rtl-sdr.com and all works ok.

Well ...after much messing about trying to use both the Left and Right audio channels of a VB cable to transport 2 sets of data ..to one version of Jaero ...I have drawn the conclusion that Jaero only accepts data on the Left channel ..
The right channel being totally unused ..which is a waste ..
I've monitored the Right Channel and the data is present and ..with headphones on you can hear the data moving Left and right from the two channels ...but Jaero turns a deaf ear to the right channel.
I guess the only option now is to set up even more VB cable lines and use even more instances of Jaero ...each assigned its own cable and each only using the Left audio channel ?
I'll contact Jonti at some point and ask him to confirm my findings..
