I have just found your page and will look at that with interest later Next upgrade i am looking at is a preamp in front of the upconverter any thoughts on if this is a good optionĪny recommendations on software etc greatfuly recieved So now looking to tweak the things as if i can do this with the cobbled together setup i have, what can i do if i do things better ? So far i have only paid out for RTL Dongle and the upconverter and a few SMA cables and getting some good distance, heard hungarian, eastern europe, and western europe my long wire antenna is 3mtrs of stranded copper wire, and i then stripped a 2mtr UTP cable and split it into the 4 pairs and solder the 4 pairs to the end to make about a 10-11mtr long wire antenna, found details of a 9:1 balun, found a ferrite ring and some suitable wire and made it from my scrap box and added that and getting surprisingly good results So what software would others recommend for the above for a beginner, i am technical, my day job is an IT consultant, i love raspberry pi and arduino, and love tinkering, so i am not one for buying off the shelf if i can make it myselfĮ.G. I am interested in SSTV, RTTY, decoders for morse (i do hope to learn to read morse at some point) So the advice i am looking for is around the software other use Then moved up to kent and couldn't continue with radio, fast forward 40 years to now, and i came across these RTL dongles, which are a cheap way back into radio using various SDR sharp or cubic SDR programs, added a up converter and i am back into radio I did a bit of CB and used to live in plymouth and did OND electronics at college, and used to go up on dartmoor and managed to get down contact into cornwall about 50 miles on a 2W legal FM rig which was way past what it was supposed to do I first became interested in radio at school (in the 80's), where i got bitten by the electronics bug, and computing, unfortunately then you had to pass the morse exam to get below 2mtr and all the interesting stuff and there was little computer help for decoding signals TX/RX from multiple SDRs simultaneouslyĪdditionally, SDR Play is also available as a web application.I joined to learn more before deciding if i want to do the foundation or higher exams.Additional devices via Soapy and audio interface.Airspy, Airspy HF, Airspy Discovery, BladeRF, Fun Cube, HackRF, Kiwi SDR, LimeSDR, LimeSDR Mini, Lime RFE, Perseus, PlutoSDR, RTL SDR, SDRplay RSP1, RSP2, RSPduo, RSPdx, USRP B210, XTRX – Native Support.Workspaces are placed in a docking area and therefore can be docked out to be moved to another screen in a multiple screen setup for example. By default, workspaces are stacked upon each other and can be switched using the side tabs to bring up the selected workspace on the top of the display. You can have multiple workspaces and move components across workspaces. ![]() These UIs can be resized and moved freely to let you compose the global UI at your convenience. The UI is organized in workspaces where you place the different components UIs: device, main spectrum, channels, and features. ![]() One or more channel Tx plugins can be used to produce modulated samples that are mixed into a transmission passband with possible subsequent interpolation before being sent to the device. Then in the passband returned possibly decimated one or more channel Rx plugins can be used to demodulate, decode or analyze some part of this spectrum.Ĭonversely, SDRangel uses sample sink plugins to send I/Q samples to a hardware device. SDRangel uses sample source plugins to collect I/Q samples from a hardware device. This is how – Edouard Griffiths – F4EXB have explained SDR Angel Direct sampling worked okay even though for some reason the dongle was super hot all the time. Now, I have a simple RTL-SDR v3 (Chinese Clone) which I know isn’t the greatest of the hardware frontend for a true wideband receiver. I compiled the whole thing even though SDRangel does have a docker to make things easier. I wasn’t disappointed with the installation process for my Manjaro/Linux system. Today, I bring to you yet another awesome SDR written by Edouard Griffiths – F4EXB ![]() ![]() Things really took a turn after the success of the immensely popular uSDX from DL2MAN & PE1NNZ Software Defined Radios are nowadays immensely popular amongst the amateur radio community.
