On today’s episode, host Phil Lichtenberger interviews Jon Hudson, the co-creator of the SDRplay devices. They talk about the evolution of radio scanning software, the advantages of SDRplay and SDRuno, where they think the scanner hobby is headed, and more.
What You Need To Know
- Jon Hudson is a co-creator of the SDRplay device.
- SDRplay manufactures both hardware and software.
- Before about 20 years ago, processing the radio chain was done exclusively on the hardware. Now computers are powerful enough to support doing most of this work with software.
- SDRplay was founded in 2014.
- The RSPDX has multiple antennae, which allows users to switch from one antenna to another quickly and easily.
- Because SDRplay makes their own software for Windows, they take a lot of time to make sure it works seamlessly out of the box.
- SDRplay acquired a company called Studio One that manufactured software about five years ago.
- SDRplay is releasing a scheduler, which will function as an audio recorder for a specific channel at a specific time.
- An advantage of the scheduler is that it allows users to tune in to certain frequencies at a specified time and then turn it off or move on to something else.
