Essen, Germany and Austin TX – August 5, 2016:  For Immediate Release

FlexRadio Systems and Marcus Roskosch, DL8MRE announced today a partnership to develop, market and sell a client interface application for both iPad® and iPhone® devices.  SmartSDR™ for iOS was designed to offer FLEX-6300, FLEX-6500 and FLEX-6700 owners the ability to operate from home or remotely through their mobile device.   SmartSDR for iOS provides many of the great features of SmartSDR for Windows® plus a few extras.

SmartSDR for iOS can almost fully replace SmartSDR for Windows® and most of its features can now be used from your mobile device without the necessity to use a PC.  You can operate in any mode, such as SSB or even CWX including sidetone. 

SmartSDR for iOS offers a visual Band plan and DX-Cluster integration.  Band limits, modes and DX-Cluster spots will be displayed right inside the panadapter.  SmartSDR for iOS supports multitasking on newer iPads so it can run side-by-side and concurrently with any other app on your device.

To run SmartSDR for iOS the operator will need a FLEX-6000 series radio, an Apple device such as an iPad®, iPhone® or iPod® Touch running iOS 9.0 or greater.  A newer iPad (3, Air 1 or newer) or iPhone (5s or better) is recommended.  To run this app at your home, nothing else but a regular Wi-Fi connection is needed. You can immediately start using the app.

SmartSDR for iOS will be available from the App Store starting August 5, 2016 and is priced at US $49.99.  Optional features such as the DX-Cluster and Band Plan are priced at US $4.99.  For more information on SmartSDR for iOS client or FlexRadio Systems visit the SmartSDR for iOS product web page.
