Yes Paul, a SmartSDR+ subscription is required.

Unsure… is that payment a one-time payment, or a yearly subscription ?

Hello Paul:

I hate to see a Q go un-answered…

The SmartSDR+ can be either a one-time payment, OR a yearly payment, at your choosing.

When you pay, you gain access to additional features, and new features for the following year. If you never pay again, you continue to have those features. So in that sense, a one-time payment buys you more features, and you get to keep those forever.

But when the next year comes, you have exactly the same choice again - you can choose to pay for the newest features and all other new features for the next year. Again, you'll get additional features above the "basic" SmartSDR, and you'll get to keep these new features "forever".

So, year-by-year, the choice is yours. If you see (or anticipate) value in the latest SmartSDR+, then you can choose to pay. If the new features are meaningless to you, you can simply stay where you are and skip the SmartSDR+.

Does this help?

Au revoir…

It does help, Gordon, many thanks !

I will have to see what the amount is, I think I can do that through the settings/get SamrtSDR+
