My Lime seems completely deaf

u.fl cable - yes, have tried all 4 that came with my LimeSDR (I ordered and received the acrylic case and antennas)
USB - no issues. Working fine with LimeSuite, and a few apps like SDR-Console and GQRQ … fine except received signal.
Power to board - same as above.
Load firmware - see LimeSDR under SDR-Console
