The following listing is limited to the most
popular software, which is free available from the web and is also proven compatible
with our DiRaBox.
We don`t provide a direct link to the providers,
therefore please use a search engine and enter the software name.
Additionally there are some other commercial
SDR programs available. Using a search engine enquiry will also give an actual
overview.
This listing is only intended for pure information
purposes without any guarantees for completeness, availability and functionality.
DREAM
The most universal software, which
handles DRM reception and also all analogue modes (AM / LSB / USB / FM).
A very comprehensive software with
a lot of features like e.g. spectral display, constellation diagram, free selectable
filter parameters etc.
This software is constantly updated.
New: SoDiRa
The author Bernd Reiser has designed
an easy-to-use and well-structured software which is getting steadily better and
better.
With even more features than DREAM
it allows DRM reception and all analogue modes including DCF77 time signal station
decoding & RDS decoding.
From version 070 direct frequency
tuning for the DRB 30 & 32 receivers is supported.
Due to the numerous features we have
added an
extra section for this comprehensive
software.
SDRADIO
A very nice software for analogue
reception (AM/ECSS=AM-SYNC/LSB/USB/FM). It includes also a spectral display.
With S-meter and continuous adjustments
of center & passband frequency .
An unique feature is a very effective
noise cancelling function called denoiser.
WINRAD
From the same author of SDRADIO.
Alle analogue modes with exception of FM. Double spectral display and waterfall
display (overview & zoomed filter bandwidth).
With S-meter and continuous adjustments
of center & passband frequency. Very effective noise reduction & noise
blanker.
IFDSP
A somewhat elder software, also for
all modes of analogue reception (AM / ECSS = AM-SYNC / LSB / USB). With continuous
adjustments of center frequency & filter bandwidth, BFO-offset and S-meter.
Without spectral display, therefore
the hardware requirements are lower and the software will run with 300MHz clock
rate processors.
KGKSDR
A brand new 2006 SDR software from
GB for all analogue modes, which seems very promising.
Well equipped with all necessary
features and includes also a comprehensive documentation. Three different DSP noise
and distortion cancelling modes are integrated.
Contains a S-meter, spectral &
waterfall display. Many parameters are a individually selectable. Audio recording
is also possible.
G8JCFSDR
This universally usable SDR software supports
(from build 186) also frequency tuning of the DRB 30.
A very comprehensive software eqipped with numerous
features and modes written by the British radio amateur PeterCarnegie G8JCF.Due
to the overwhelming possibilities we have written an additional short
review.
