SmartSDR+ and Linux roadmap

John Mikucki

My understanding is that Flex no longer provides technical support for Win10 users. Having considered and rejected Windows 11, I've migrated to Linux. I'm therefore interested in radios with Linux clients. I'd like to understand whether FlexRadio is reevaluating accommodating this userbase down the road. My 6700's going to die eventually; when it can't be revived, I'm going to be looking for a 2+SCU, 8+ slice, Linux-friendly radio to replace it with.

Obligatory note: I understand and stipulate that a Linux port is a (much) bigger lift than a feature for, say, clicking the panadapter to tell DSP NR where to find the noise floor.

    Hey John, i'm with you i'm desperate for a Linux software solution for my 8600.
    I did try crossover and i'm still messing, but it's no fix for a proper piece of software.
    Lots of suppliers of application are now dropping support for Windows 10 but what about the Locations that have an extended 12 months support like the UK.
    Oh well one can only wait, hope and pray.

    Cheers
    Chris

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
