Purchase SmartSDR+ subscription during $50 offer but prefer to hold off on SmartSDR V4 upgrade

Looking at the FlexRadio website, I can't find anyplace to purchase the SmartSDR+ subscription. Due to priorities and commitments, I prefer to hold off on the V3.x to V4.x update on my 6600. I would like to take advantage of the $50 off offer (ends November 30, 2025). How do I purchase the subscription while holding off on the on the V4.x update.

Ron, WB2WGH

    Hi

    You have to upgrade (install) to v4.0.1 to then make the purchase. You can't do it without installing 4.0.1.

    You can always reinstall your previous version after if you like. You will have to reset the radio after the downgrade as the user databases aren't compatible.

    Mike, thanks. I guess I'm going to have to do the upgrade this weekend if I want to take advantage of the offer.

    Thanks, Ron WB2WGH

    I remain unclear as to how to purchase a SmartSDR+ license. I'm already running the latest version 4. I don't see any links or information on the download page. I would also like to take advantage of the $50 discount.

    on version 4 running SmartSDR on a computer click on Settings, then Radio Setup, at the BOTTOM of this box you will see two Green boxes, click on the option you want to purchase "Get SmartSDR+ or Get Early Access"

    I'm not sure how to do it on a Maestro but should be similar.

    hope this helps

    Where is the receipt? I purchased smartsdr+ using a credit card. Smartsdr+ installed and is working fine. The purchase does not show up in my “order history “. Anyone else have the same issue?

    Hi Mark, my order history shows my SmartSDR+ purchase. If you are concerned about it, you might want to send a note to sales at flexradio dot com.

    I've upgraded my 8600 to version 4. What's the process to purchase the SmartSDR+ subscription with running SmartSDR for Mac? I'm not finding any buttons to use.

    I think you have got to do it through SSDR for Windows. But what if you don't have a Windows machine?? The only reason I have a windows machine is that IMHO there is no good contest software for Mac. Otherwise all my other operating is done on a Mac.

    Hi Ron, you can either run SmartSDR for Windows and purchase the upgrade that way or submit a help desk ticket.
