I tried running Pothos and LimeSuiteGui but could not use them both to talk to the LimeSDR at the same time. Maybe it’s a USB controller feature. But I thought the FX3 would only allow one connection. Good to know it’s possible.
I am on linux so it may be the USB driver that’s the difference.
Does that also apply if you are running 5MHz or less bandwidth because of USB2 limitations or do you need to be running the full bandwidth for the second receiver to work 61Mhz off from the first one?
@M0GLO I’m under the impression that it’s an intrinsic limitation of the LimeSDR. I can’t imagine that the USB would make a difference.
Also, I understand that lower frequencies can be ‘up-converted’, then run through the FPGA, and ‘down converted’ on the other side? Higher frequencies would be given the opposite treatment. This way a frequency of eg 791 MHz could be run through the gadget in parallel with a frequency of eg 862 MHz. (862 - 791 = 71 MHz).
I could be wrong!
