No reception?

From a silent speaker to an overloaded SDR: work through the receiving chain.

For analogue voice and SDR reception. Use a known station that is actually active. An empty channel alone does not prove a fault.

CHECK 4

Do frequency, mode and filter match?

Compare with the selected station’s information: AM, FM or SSB must match the signal. The filter must include the wanted signal.
