Is my SDR already supported? The answer is here: Check this list.All you need to do with regard to SdrDx is tell me what device name you will use with the server (it currently reports in as "RTLSVR", you need to pick a name for the device you’re supporting, and tell me what it is.) However, here is GPL’d source code for an SdrDx-compatible USB-to-Network server for the RTL "stick" SDRs that can be refactored to support other USB devices. I spend what time I have adding radio features to SdrDx. If you’re looking for something to do, many USB-based receivers are desperately in need of precisely such a server. And of course all the RFSPACE networked SDRs. Examples of such well-designed SDRs include the Andrus MK 1.5 and the AFEDRI, as well as the SDR-IQ via its network server applications. If it is, it will “just work.” If it isn’t - it won’t, and software support for your design will be considerably more limited. Likewise, if you’re considering a new SDR design where you plan to have an Ethernet connection as one of, or the only, method of communication to the host computer, ideally it will be compliant with those protocols. However, note that I require that the actual SDR be provided to me for development and testing of those extensions. SdrDx will work with any SDR or SDR network server that acts like the sample server software if you need to extend the network methods, for instance to control features unique to your SDR, let me know and I will do my best to support those extensions. You can use this fully functional RTL USB-to-network server as a starting point - it does everything you need to do to talk to SdrDx. In order that SdrDx is able to support additional USB-based SDRs, a protocol-compatible server must be written by the SDR vendor or a third party.For Developers (and those who would encourage developers).Don’t stick the executables somewhere else. Note to Windows OS users: Only run SdrDx and SwDb out of the folders I supply them in. Recent changes to the documentation may only be found in the beta documentation until a version update of the entire package is made this is where to look if you ask me to add something, it’ll appear there first. It’s no trouble at all to add index entries, and generally speaking, I’m willing to expand the main manual itself if you find something I have not covered yet.


I try to keep the documentation up to date. If you can’t find something in the index, please let me know. The main application zip file will un-compress to a folder, inside which you will find the SdrDx application, and some other files. These manufacturers have gone the extra mile to see that SDR software developers such as myself are provided with working SDR samples, technical support and interfacing data: Please consider the following makers of SDRs ahead of any others.
