I know theres a ton of posts regarding this subject and I think ive tried them all to no avail. I believe I have everything configured correctly but I cant seem to decode anything. Is there anyone that can point me at something to look for?

    assuming everything is configured - radio should be digiu for pretty much all decodes and make sure the “reverse” button in fldigi is not on. Use the fldigi waterfall and i overlay the red decode on what you want to decide ensuring you are in the right mode in fldigi. if you are in the usa, use netlogger to see advertised digital networks - the saturn network on saturday morning is good as the will flip between olivia and mafk - it took me several tries to get all my settings correct. in rtty contests i will lock down fldigi to essentially be static and run the radio in rtty mode and use the radios waterfall which i find is more effective . comically you have to know what you are decoding. i have struggled in the past with decodes when turned out to be ft8 on an odd frequency.

    Make sure that you have the latest xml file for SmartSDR and that it is in the right place for it to be picked during initiating.
