PC Hardware requirements

in SmartSDR for Windows

Is there a published summary of minimum PC Hardware requirements for SmartSDR 4? Is a graphics card recommended or is the built in graphics in new PC's running Windows 11 generally adequate?

    pretty much anything reasonably new will work for SmartSDR. It’s a light weight client. The radio (server) does all the work. The pc just displays the status of the radio at whatever rate is selected. I haven’t tried any of the 4.xx version, but I ran v3 on a win7 I5 laptop for several years. Being lightweight s why it will run on an iPad or iPhone. The other apps like loggers, wsjt, slicemaster can need more resources. The network can require more attention. For starters, I suggest a direct link between the pc and the radio just to eliminate network issues from the pc processing.

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.
