Early Preview: ProtoSDR – a Client for Linux

I’d like to share an early look at ProtoSDR, a SmartSDR-style client application designed to run natively on Linux.


At this stage, ProtoSDR already supports a solid set of features:

  • Multiple panadapters and slices
  • multiFlex operation
  • LAN discovery and WAN (SmartLink) connections
  • Receive audio
  • Band, antenna, and mode selection
  • DSP filter selection and adjustable filter width
  • Split operation
  • Audio controls
  • X/RIT

This is still an early build, and needs a lot of work, but its quite functional.

    This is fantastic Simon! It feels like we just started discussing SmartSDR for Linux, and you already have a working version!

    Tuning and moving the panadapter look very smooth - nicely done! It feels like the hard part is done, now it is the million little things that SmartSDR does that has to be accommodated.

    The Linux community will be thrilled to see this!
