I am starting to work out what signals look like on the waterfall display (LSB / USB, NBFM, data etc) but their seems to be little information out there to help with this that is easy to find So now i have this obvious bit worked out i should get the next leap The thing i have struggle with, but now got my head around is i am using the RTL Dongle, and loading the additional software on the same machine (wxtoimg for weather satellite, psk31, cwget etc) but what i realised last night was i need a 2nd machine (that blinding flash of the obvious moment)ġ machine to run the the basic SDR software and dongle (like you would have a rig in your shack / radio room) and then that feeding audio to a 2nd machine running all the decoder software, as the software is looking at the mic input for the audio not the output of the sound card as it is written primarily for amateurs who transmit as well as receive ![]() 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 The oldest SDR# revision I found was 1189 and there were no issues.I joined to learn more before deciding if i want to do the foundation or higher exams So as long as the ISharpPlugin.DisplayName property is in the plugin and the config file structure is not changed it should load everyting. This application loads all dependent files from where the manager EXE is located or where it is pointed to on the startup. More detailed error messages in nice dialogsĪs I was testing plugins I saw that some of them are broken due to SDR# API changes.There aren't any yet \o/ Upcomming features ![]() Feel free to message me about other working plugins or just fork this repo and add new ones by your own. Note: Frequency Manager is a drop-in replacement of the one which comes with SDR#. It is also included in the zip just don't forget to copy along with the plugins. Note: Although these plugins come in 3 separate DLLs, they cooperate, so you must add all of them to get them work properly. So here is a short list of successfully added plugins so far: Standard plugins The application should add any valid SDR# plugin to the config file, however it can fail when something unexcepted happens, like some undetectable file is also required to run your plugin ( to be precise: I don't know how to detect yet). Add a plugin DLL, remove unused ones and save changes.Put SDRSharpPluginManager.exe into SDR#'s folder or run it where it is and follow the instructions.This is a simple program which helps adding and removing plugins to SDR# so you don't have to edit SDRSharp.Config by hand. THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED SDR# Plugin Manager
