Have you followed the instructions for getting an RTL Dongle to work by replacing the Drivers using Zadig?
From what I see the DX-PATROL is just a very expensive @£99.00 U-VHF/HF RTL Dongle very similar to what I purchased in kit form from china for £15 a 100 KHz - 2 GHz RTL based SDR with the extra filters and stuff for the HF side

It's great that you are offering help, unfortunately he's banned as he's an alleged fraudster.
