Hi all,
Just new to this world and already regretting my choices in life!
I have a LimeSDR mini v2.2
I have been to the MyriadRF pages for support and found a lot on LimeSDR or firmware for LimeSDR mini v1.2, nothing for what I have (not sure if I need a firmware update or not, but running out of ideas!).
Currently on Raspberry Pi 3B+, I have LimeSuite and GQRX installed.
Problem is, I can not see anything with my LimeSDR mini, with an RTL_SDR I can see 460MHz, record it, etc… Lime says that there is nothing there (not even a noise floor). So, I think there is a problem.
The software sees the LimeSDR, it is a valid option, I can select it and configure it, but nothing actually happens.
I have 1x blinking green light in the middle of the 2 SMA connections (from what I have found, that is not a “fault finding” tool, just a user-configurable LED (?)).
So, LimeUtil --update gives me this:
Connected to [LimeSDR Mini [USB 2.0] 1D90…]
ProgramWrite length should be > 0
Programming update failed!
change to sudo LimeUtil --update:
Connected to [LimeSDR Mini [USB 2.0] 1D90…]

The OS build is brand new, update/upgrade come back with 0 needed.
I have an internet connection, when I go to https://downloads.myriadrf.org and poke around, I can see heaps of stuff, but nothing for v2.2.
Any help, at all??
So, my end result (in case you know a better way) is that I want to be able to ‘retransmit’ a recorded signal. Simply, I want to record a signal at 460MHz (example) and then later reply that signal on 470MHz. Just playing around and trying to see how it all works/looks, but really struggling to start this project!
