SDR-RADIO.com

Visit my latest project, SDR-RADIO.com. The future of Amateur Radio is SDR, this project is a Windows console supporting SoftRocks and the excellent RFSpace radios.

I've been working on this for the last four months. Regular service has now been resumed - I'm back to the HRD / DM780 / Logbook development.

Radios

Ham Radio Deluxe supports many radios including the great new K3 from Elecraft and the fantastic Perseus SDR from Microtelecom in Italy.

 

Ham Radio Deluxe

Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) is a suite of free Windows programs providing computer control for commonly used transceivers and receivers. HRD also includes mapping, satellite tracking and the digital mode program Digital Master 780 (DM780).

HRD is designed for Windows 2000 or higher (XP, Vista, 7), also Internet Explorer 6.0 (or higher) is required. It may work with Windows 98 but this is not supported. The policy is to support Windows versions which are supported by Microsoft.

HRD LOG .net

A web-based logbook developed by Claudio IW1QLH. Free! for all HRD Logbook users.

 


Installation

Installation is simple, just Download, Install and Start!

HRD is free for Radio Amateurs, Shortwave Listeners (SWLs) and charitable organisations. Use by commercial organisations and government institutions requires a licence from Simon Brown, HB9DRV.

The suggested minimum computer specification Is:

  • HRD: 500MHz CPU, 512MB RAM and 20MB of disk storage.
  • DM780: 1GHz CPU, 1024MB RAM and 50MB storage (or more if using SSTV). DM780 uses more resources than HRD when decoding many signals simultaneously.

FT-950

A new Yaesu FT-950 was purchased from Martin Lynch last week, it has replaced the Elecraft K3 as the main SW radio here in the HB9DRV shack. As always, many thanks to Chris Taylor for his help with this purchase. Expect much enhanced FT-950 support in February and March 2009.

Distribution

Kits may be supplied by Amateur Radio manufacturers, dealers and distributors on the condition that the kits are provided free of charge.

Kits may also be copied to other Amateur Radio websites but I recommend that a link to www.ham-radio-deluxe.com is added so that surfers know where to check for latest build information.

Kits may not be sold except where a charge is made for the distribution medium as long as the cost of each CD is not more than 10 euro or $15.
