I recently brought out one of my two SDR's (Software Defined Radio)
called a Softrock Ensemble RX II after being in storage for a decade and
I am trying to get it to work in Ubuntu 18.04. I followed the
instructions to the letter:
http://www.n8mdp.com/sdrLinux.php
However, like with that gentleman, I am getting similar error messages
at the bottom of the page:
***@jon-Dell-PC:~$ python /home/jon/SDR/quisk/quisk
ALSA lib pcm.c:2495:(snd_pcm_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.rear
ALSA lib pcm.c:2495:(snd_pcm_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.center_lfe
ALSA lib pcm.c:2495:(snd_pcm_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.side
ALSA lib pcm_route.c:867:(find_matching_chmap) Found no matching channel map
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server request channel
jack server is not running or cannot be started
JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1,
skipping unlock
JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1,
skipping unlock
Unfortunately, he said he solved it, but didn't go on to reveal how
which is why I was turning here.
The Quisk program goes ahead and opens, but no matter which band I
choose, and it almost seems like its switching bands, nothing really
changes and I hear the same CW signals at the same locations. This
probably all has to do with the settings.
About to throw in the towel on this one and revamp and set up an unused
Win desktop, just hoped I didn't have to clutter up my limited space
doing that if I can do it on the Ubuntu main desktop.
Any help would be welcome and thanks in advance.
