FlexRadio Systems announces the immediate availability of SmartSDR v3.0.19 for the FLEX-6000 Signature Series SDRs.  SmartSDR v3.0.19 is a General Availability (GA) release containing new features and fixes for SmartSDR for Windows, SmartSDR for Maestro, SmartSDR for M models, SmartSDR CAT and DAX.

SmartSDR 3.0.19 can be downloaded from the FlexRadio Systems website. Please download and review the SmartSDR v3.0.19 Release Notes prior to installing SmartSDR v3.0.19 to ensure an optimal software installation experience.

A software license for the FLEX-6000 is required to run SmartSDR v3.0.19.  

If prompted to upgrade your SmartSDR license, obtaining and validating a license for your FLEX-6000 software defined radio is a simple process.  Once the radio and client have network access to the Internet, just load any version of the SmartSDR v3.x software on your PC or Maestro. In the radio chooser, if a radio requires a license, a status message will indicate a license is required before connecting to the radio and updating the firmware.  A “Buy” button is also presented so that you can conveniently purchase a SmartSDR v3.x license using our Online Store. Please see details below regarding purchasing a SmartSDR software license for your radio.

The following highlights are SmartSDR specific items:

multiFLEX - Now two users can operate a single radio at the same time! Learn More

BandSettings menu/panel - allows a user to set certain settings per-band.

TX/MIC Profile Changes – all settings are now saved on-the-fly (as settings are changed).

Automatic Reconnect in SmartSDR for Windows - When loading, SmartSDR for Windows will now automatically connect to the last radio it was connected to.

Enhanced audio streaming subsystem - to support multiple, simultaneous, clients.
