First of all, thanks to Alex for creating this great software. I've followed all the information regarding SkyRoof configuration, but I haven't been able to find an answer to my question about running waterfall using only the IC-9700. Since the IC-9700 is an SDR receiver, I thought it was only necessary to set the appropriate parameters in the "Setting Up SDR" and "Setting Up Output Stream" configurations. I would be grateful for any advice that might help me solve my problem.
The remaining software components are working without any problems.

Unfortunately, IC-9700 does not make its wideband I/Q stream available outside of the radio. You need an SDR to have the waterfall and software receiver. Even the cheapest one, such as RTL-SDR, will do the job.
