Thank you very much for the helpful suggestions; my setup is working very nicely now! I changed the sample rate to 2MS/s, and the bandwidth to samp_rate instead of bw as you
suggested, and tested it again with the function generator at 20 kHz. This time, the frequencies match exactly where they should be. I’m so glad everything is working smoothly; now I can move forward with my project. Thanks again for your input!

On Behalf Of Kyeong Su Shin To whom it may concern: First, as Marcus Müller mentioned in an another e-mail thread, you cannot sample at 300MS/s with an RTL-SDR. The maximum effective sampling rate (=actual ADC sampling rate / decimation ratio) that RTL-SDR can
achieve is somewhere around 2.6MS/s - 3.2MS/s. Your RTL-SDR must be operating in an different sampling rate in reality. I never used RTL-SDR in direct sampling mode or with a down mixer, so I am not sure how you should configure your parameters to listen to VLF channels, but in many cases, it is sufficient to set sample rate = bandwidth. In fact, I am not
sure if it is truly configurable in this case, as some SDR transceivers simply ignore that field (as well as some gain parameters). Kyeong Su Shin On Thu, Mar 30, 2017 at 3:03 PM, Ellie White <address@hidden> wrote:
