Request for assistance for good HF reception from 100 KHz to more than 30 MHz

Im not in that club …
After removing a pesky inductor … rx is as expected. Almost as good as a UHFSDR and on occasion can get more than 60db of dynamic range. As every one knows, the ADC is only ~71db of theoretical dynamic range…

Odd thing …

Iv gone to use my LimeSDR-USB and HF is no good … not even WWV, things that my old UHFSDR can hear but the lime is 100% hf deaf … its been disconnected for about a month so im sure its something with software …

And the only things iv done since the last time it was working — was run a system update (nothing with limesuite, soapysdr or gqrx) and the cli calibrate … not the old LimeSuiteCalibrate

Took a video showing the limeutil --calibrate does ruin hf

LimeUtil --calibrate was implemented by @joshblum and is used to fill calibration cache database for use with Soapy. I suspect that caching is no working correctly, so I would suggest to not use it if possible. Maybe Josh can advise you more on this.
