Software Defined Radio related software and resources.
- SDR:
HHDSDR Homepage:
..HDSDR is a freeware Software Defined Radio (SDR) program for Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8.
..download
..Typical applications are Radio listening, Ham Radio, SWL, Radio Astronomy, NDB-hunting and Spectrum analysis.
..HDSDR (former WinradHD) is an advanced version of Winrad, written by Alberto di Bene (I2PHD).
..SDRadio:
..SSB, CW and AM demodulator: http://www.sdradio.eu/sdradio/
..By I2PHD and IK2CZL, practic skin, made for für I/Q direct mixing concepts,
..demodulates also by set an offset of middle frequency
..to 12 kHz single IF very well. Can handle 40kHz+
..G8JCFSDR:
..Software defined radio using MF: http://www.g8jcf.dyndns.org/g8jcfsdr/
..By G8JCF, good AM, better SSB and CW demodulator, also software AGC.
..Several filter and noise reduction equipment. Also recorder mode supported.

- Spectrum- and audio analyzers:
RS-FreeBies
Contains free software for soundcards, like: Signal analyzer, track meter, func shaper, easyq...
http://www.rs-met.com/freebies.html
Voxengo Span:
SPAN is a real-time FFT spectrum analyzer VST plugin. For the most part
it was derived from GlissEQ and CurveEQ professional equalizers and
it reproduces their spectrum analysis functionality
http://www.voxengo.com/product/SPAN/
Spectran:
Spectran is a program to do real time or deferred spectral analysis / waterfall display, in addition to real time audio filtering (band pass, denoising, band reject and CW peaking) of audio signals, using the PC sound card to digitize the input analog signal, or taking as input a WAV file. Its characteristics are well suited to dig weak signals buried into noise, thanks to a selectable bin size down to 21 millihertz. On the opposite site, it can visualize normal CW signals, resolving individual dots and dashes (with a reasonably fast PC).
