    SDRoxide: Software-Defined Radio Transceiver

    Read More

    The following is a message from Josef (OE3JJS):

    SDRoxide is a completely new project written in Rust, supporting many SDR interfaces (CAT/Audio, CAT/IQ, SoapySDR, HPSDR, TCI) and with loads of features built in that used to require extra programs: FT8/FT4, SSTV, RTTY, PSK, OLIVIA, THOR, FSQ, a CW/RTTY/PSK skimmer, there’s dx cluster and sota/pota spotting, a logbook with integrations for QRZ.com, HamQTH, eQSL, LoTW, there’s neural-network noise reduction, a 3D “hamclock” that visualizes QSOs, satellites, Aurora, CME cones, with up-to-date images of the sun’s surface, and you can run the client locally, remote with native binary, or remote via the web (WASM).

    Future plans include a TCI Server (so it can act as a Anything-to-TCI bridge for example), Hellschreiber, and eventually digital voice modes for HF.

    The current version is v0.5.0, the project is open source and is looking for testers on Windows and Mac.

    A powerful SDR transceiver client with a GPU panadapter, dual VFOs, neural noise reduction, built-in skimmers, a full stack of digital modes and a live 3D space-weather globe — wrapped in a cyberpunk interface and running native on Linux, macOS & Windows, or streamed to any browser.
