SDR# with SDRplay

Post by dosformat » Mon Nov 16, 2015 4:49 pm

Hi there all.

Just a quick question.

I have recently bought a SDRplay and would like to use SDR

Now I understand SDR# have stopped support for the SDRplay but I am wondering If I have an old version of SDR# sharp will it still work O.K?

If that is the case what would be the best version of SDR# to use with the SDRplay?

Regards

Dos

Hello Dos,
All versions up to 1361 should be fully supported when using the ExtIO plugin.

Sincerely

And just search this forum for "build 1361" and you will find some posts with links to where you can download it - and the most common plug-ins.

For me build 1361 gives more functionality than HDSDR or SDR-console at this point in time.

I've just recently started playing with the SDR# software, so I might not see what others see in it, but for me, SDR Console is head and shoulders above SDR#.

Mbott -

SDR# has a plugin systems that allows add-ins to the main software. There are several plugins that are very useful for scanning, recording, etc. that make it much more useful for VHF listening. These capabilities do not exist (yet) in SDR Console. I'm a HUGE supporter of Simon's work and use SDR Console most of the time for HF work. But Simon needs to address missing features for VHF to be useful in SDR Console.

I know he knows this, and I also know he is considering a plugin type interface to provide for add-ins like SDR#.

Best - David

I miss not being able to use sdr# with sdrplay which I have bought recently. Not all plugins work with the newer versions of sdr# and the incompatability with sdrplay. I like receiving images of the Meteor satellites for which the plugins are I think, only available for sdr#. So looking at previous comments on this forum I have downloaded sdr# 1361 but i am not able to find the ExtIO plugin that works with this version and below. It looks like sdrplay have removed it as it is no longer suitable for later versions of sdr#.

Dear Sparks240,
The current ExtIO plugin that is used for HDSDR should work fine with v1361 of SDR#

Sincerely
