gkSDR

What is gkSDR ? “yet another SDR software”. Initially released (last year) in french only, it is now available for english speakers.

Some of the features were developped with portable traffic in mind, like :

  1. Dual receiver software, to listen to two frequencies simultaneously, for example listen to beacon while calling CQ,
  2. Automatic scanning mode over the received band, with strongest stations report (to be sure not to miss the 3cm call while rotating your dish…)
  3. Replay mode for 2 or 5 seconds, when you missed your contact call (or uner high QRM conditions, rain scatter),
  4. See where you are on the map (if you have a gps), see terrain elevation,
  5. Embedded ADSB decoder (requires second SDR receiver), plots planes on the map while QSOing, good for plane scatter experiments,
  6. many more… check the software or look at screen shots below
