SDRplay-DXLABS Commander and TenTec Eagle
Hello all-
I am considering purchase of an SDRplay unit.
I want to use it as a Panadpter for a TenTec Eagle, using the 9 MHz IF out of the Eagle.
Using DXLAbs Commander. the Eagle is the primary receiver and the SDRPlay a 2nd receiver set to "follow and lead" the EAGLE.
A few questions -
Can Commander communicate with SDRPlay directly, or does any other protocol such as Kenwood emulate the SDRPlay?
What SDR software could I use in this configuration, remember the Eagle IF is inverted frequency, so the software would need to un-invert it.
Also how would freq sync be set up to track, as the SDR is seeing 9 MHZ, not the actual frequency the Tentec is tuned to.
I tried this with a FLEX1500 and Power- and could not invert the spectrum, nor get the frequencies to track.
Thanks DAN KC2STA

use sdr-console and on external radio this uses omnirig to talk to the radio, and point dxlabs second cat to omnirig, hdsdr also works well, I use both on my FTdx3000 with dxlabs

Paul-
Thanks for the reply.
I am confused on how to set up commander-Omni rig
When I go to Omni rig- what receiver do I use? I cannot find any info on what protocol SDRPlay uses.
Then when I set up commander secondary port - what do I use for CAT protocol? Same as what is set in Omni rig?
Thanks Dan KC2STA

HDSDR controls the sdrplay, omnirig controls your ft-30000.
