Wide band spectrum analyzer / scanner

Post by IW2NYX » Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:12 pm

I'm used to tune my RF filters with the help of SDRRTL scanner stand alone program (windows version), a generic RT820T USB dongle and a RF wide band noise generator, so i was wondering if exist, or is under development, an equivalent application for SDRplay.

The 12bit ADC sampling system would give a nice boost in term of dynamic range over a cheap RTL dongle, ie allowing to analyze 60dB band pass/ band stop filters with a decent amplitude margin.

Not the same as professional equip but sure much better than nothing.

I'm planning to buy a Rigol DSA815TG to cover this and other needings, but in the mean time i will be glad to use my new toy for this purpose.

I think that a such kind of custom program, developed excusively for SDRplay, could be the "killer application" that will boost sales a lot.

Hi all.

I also would like a wideband spectrum analyser/scanner.

The ADS-B solution is great so it is time to go a step forward.

The one for RTLsdr in this site http://eartoearoak.com/software/rtlsdr-scanner can be a good starting point.

Thanks a lot and hoe to see that piece of software ready.

Best regards.
ANgazu.
