Video Update: I can't no longer recommend this product, however I will leave the video for anyone that has purchase the product. I no longer own this product.
In this video I will show up how to setup Soft66IP on your local area network for listening on HF. Note for VHF use the other connector and also switch to VHF. No need to do the frequency offset for VHF.
1. Connect the Mini USB for power.
2. Connect your Antenna to the HF SMA connector.
3. Switch to the antenna of choice.
4. Set the RF Gain to a low setting then adjust it when you are setup with everything. I would keep it at a minimum.
5. Connect your Soft66IP device to your network using the Ethernet port to your Network router.
6. Get the IP Address from your Network router.
7. Download and unzip then copy and paste the ExtIO_RTLTCP.dll to the SDRSharper or SDR software folder you are using.
8. Login to your Soft66IP device via SSH using PuTTY.
username will be soft66ip and the password is soft66ip
Please note I would change it if you plan to use it outside your network.
9. Locate and edit /etc/rc.local
I use nano editor. first change directory cd /etc
then type nano rc.local and remove the # from this line # rtl_tcp -a 0.0.0.0
then save by using Control and O
then exit by using Control and X
then type exit to close and logout then REBOOT the device by unplugging the USB power and reconnecting the USB power.
10. Go open SDRSharper or your SDR software and select either RTL-SDR/TCP or ExtIO_RTLTCP as your device. The RTL-SDR/TCP worked for me for SDR# and SDRSharper for HDSDR use the ExtIO_RTLTCP, they are both similar.
11. Then config the device by typing the IP address and leave port 1234 and the sample rate 2048000, by default auto gain is enabled. Click Update Settings and close the box by clicking the X
12. The press Play to start your Soft66IP with SDRSharper or software of choice.
13. The offset for this device is -50000000 or -50MHz for SDR# or SDRSharper, now for HDSDR its 50000000 without the minus sign.
I hope that helps. If you found this video useful. Please give it a thumbs up and also subscribe to my channel for update alerts on new videos.
