Congratulations on your SDR purchase, and thank you for your support! To get started with your new SDR, first select your target operating system below and then proceed with the steps that follow. Windows Installation; Mac (OS X) Installation; Android Installation; Linux Installation. Rtl-sdr suite for Mac OS X (including rtlfm, rtladsb, rtlsdr and rtltcp) - amuso/rtl-sdr. (Software Defined Radio I/Q recorder - ie DAB/DAB+ stream receiver) rtltest (Benchmark tool for host and device) rtleeprom (Dumps configuration and also writes EEPROM configuration). Over on YouTube user GetOffMyHack has uploaded a video that shows his development of a Mac based general purpose tuning app for the RTL-SDR, which was written in the Swift programming language. Swift is a programming language which is designed for creating apps for a wide range of smart Apple devices. GetOffMyHack’s program currently has a spectrum and waterfall view, can tune to any.
Software Defined Radios (SDR) have revolutionized the HF radio monitoring hobby. While most of the SDR manufacturers only offer Windows versions of their SDR application software, there are many third party solutions for other operating systems.
I use Macs, and there’s a great SDR app called SdrDx. It is based on the open source CuteSDR program (which fortunately uses the more permissive BSD license rather than the overly restrictive GPL license, allowing a much wider use of the code). SdrDx is free to download and use.
Sdr Software For Windows 10
SdrDx works with all SDRs made by RF Space. I believe it may also work with some soundcard based SDRs, although I have never tried it that way.
Cubic Sdr For Mac
As obvious by the screenshot (from a 24″ iMac) there’s a lot of controls. Besides the typical waterfall and spectrum displays, there’s also controls for memories and notch filters, as well as the ability to control the various AGC and noise blanker settings.
Sdr Sharp For Mac
Rtl Sdr For Mac
There’s a readme file that comes with the download, and recent versions of SdrDx have an optional tooltip display, so you can hover the cursor over a control to find out what it does.
The author of SdrDx is actively developing it, and has added quite a few features based on user suggestions. If you run Mac OS X, and are looking for an app to control your SDR, SdrDx may be the way to go. Download a copy and try it for yourself.
