Dear RTL developers, I was not able find a way how file the issue with RTL base USB dongle . It behaves in the same way on Linux and Windows The Problem: The constant observation of the spike on the tuned frequency in the ranges after 160MHz or so. Is it known issue or a HW defect? If it is in the software, please let me know any possible fix.
