Hi Martin,

Or maybe you're using a USB soundcard sampling at 48kS/s and your PC is set to 44.1kS/s, giving a certain frequency offset?

Ah - thanks Marcus.

This gives me somewhere to start looking!

Hi Martin, 
 
version r3058 is working fine here. The issue could perhaps be related to samplerate deviation. WSPR v2.11 sets up the soundcard at 48000 samples/second whereas WSPR-X is asking for 12000 s/s. Usually the ratio between the delivered samplerates is an accurate factor of four, but it depends on the soundcard driver. More than half a percent error will upset the symbol timing enough to render decoding impossible. You could check it by injecting a known audio tone and looking at the frequency in the wspr-x spectrogram.
 
Best 73,

I've tried and tried to get WSPR-X V0.8 r3058  to decode - I'm trying
now, on 474.2kHz.

Good strong signals on the waterfall, computer time synched using
Dimension 4, but absolutely no joy at decoding.

Is there a secret to this - the older WSPR 2.0 works fine.

Or is there a later version that actually works?
