Re: [digitalradio] SDR-Radio.com Spectrum Scope

2009-10-10 Thread Simon HB9DRV
To be honest it's something you'll have to try - and at the end of Oct / early 
Nov you will be able to use it with some big SDR input files.

The foreground spectrum is a display of the last five seconds' signal, the 
background is a time-weighted display of the laast 250ms signal.

This is very similar to the IC-7800 scope with the addition of a waterfall.

I was looking at the recent (Sept 8, 2009) screen shots of Simon's 
SDR-Radio.COM software in the Developer News forum there and was wondering if 
someone here could explain to me a little of what I am looking at - besides the 
obvious.  Specifically, when I was looking at the Spectrum Scope I initially 
thought it was displaying a 2D FFT, however, the colors of the peaks change 
such that it seems more like a 3D FFT in almost a 2D format - and I don't 
understand the colors.  If this is a standard display, would someone point me 
towards a file, website or book that will explain it to me?

SDR-RADIO.com is a SDR console - connect a SDR radio such as the SoftRock 
receiver and you can receive 160m to 10m, at least 100kHz bandwidth at a 
time.

Not just a receiver - it will decode CW (similar to CW skimmer), monitor for 
RSID / CALLID, do lots of other great things (tm) which are still t.b.a. 
Once I get it available you'll see what I mean.

Later it will support TX using SDR as well.

 Since this integrates with DM780, what does the software actually do
 ?  I assume that HRD and DM780 do all the work, so is it essentially
 just a 10 kHZ waterfall?

Hi,

I agree that the SoftRock pages are confusing, you can only buy kits although 
it's easy to find someone who will construct for you.

The RX-only is the v9, wait 'till SDR-RADIO.com is running then you can have a 
play.

  So, I have to get me one of them SDR radios.  Just what is the deal with 
Softrock, are they for purchase commonly?  The web page is awfully confusing, 
makes it looks like they are not fully in business.  Genesis SDR's look 
promising but still very early in their deveopment at the moment..  FLEX ,  too 
many Euros for my budget.

 Hi Andy,

 I'm getting on with my SDR console: http://sdr-radio.com - this console can
 monitor an entire band for RSID :)

 Today I am simply scanning 14070, 14073, 14076, and 14107.5 in 5 second
 intervals (all VFO frequencies) . I am in no particular mode, but DO
 have RS ID detect active. If I hear your RS ID within 3 kHz of where I am
 scanning, I will receive an audible alert. Try calling CQ with RS ID
 enabled at the beginning of your CQ and see if I hear you while scanning.
