    WSJT

    WSJT

    Weak signal ham radio communication

    The WSJT project implements software for amateur radio communication using state-of-the-art digital techniques. Typical applications involve "DXing" at LF, MF, HF, and VHF+ frequencies, including meteor scatter and EME ("moonbounce"). Major emphasis is placed on weak-signal techniques. Summary Program Descriptions: WSJT-X supports the communication protocols FST4, FT4, FT8, JT4, JT9, JT65, Q65, MSK144, WSPR, FST4W, and Echo, each optimized for different sorts of radio-wave propagation. MAP65 and QMAP are designed for EME at VHF and higher frequencies. MAP65 provides a panoramic, polarization-matching receiver for the Q65 and JT65. modes. QMAP works together with WSJT-X to provide a panoramic receiver for Q65 modes covering a 90 kHz sub-band. Programs WSJT and WSPR are interesting primarily for historical reasons. They are superseded by WSJT-X.

    Skywave Linux

    Skywave Linux

    Global Software Defined Radio at Your Fingertips

    Updated 2026/01/24: Turn your PC into the ultimate shortwave radio. Skywave Linux is an X86, 64 bit live environment configured for accessing internet accessible software defined radio receivers. With this operating system, you may tune in popular stations or amateur radio, aeronautical, maritime, or other signals received at remote internet servers around the world. For a live map of the best KiwiSDR and WebSDR servers and a nice "click to tune" interface, Use the installed SDR-Map utility to find radio servers and listen from interesting places. Also, I have set up a self-updating SDR Map at https://rx.skywavelinux.com. An internet radio streamer application is also included for popular studio streams. Bring it up with keys [Super] + [S]. SDR software is configured to operate with popular plug-in devices, such as the RTL-SDR dongles, Airspy, and, HackRF radios. Skywave Linux is built on Debian Sid. It is primarily a live environment, but can be fully installed.

    echoes

    echoes

    Echoes is a radio spectral analysis software for SDR devices

    Echoes it's a radio spectral analysis software for SDR devices, designed for meteor scattering purposes. The older releases supported only RTL-SDR devices. They are very cheap SDR based on DVB-T TV tuner dongles based on Realtek's RTL2832U chipset. Starting from 0.50 Echoes embeds SoapySDR allowing the support of many other SDRs. Echoes doesn't demodulate neither decode any human-made signal. Its main goal is to analyze and record the total power of natural signals and generate screenshots and tabular data (CSV,) output in presence of particular peaks in a selected narrow range of frequencies. Since there is no demodulation, there is no provision for audio listening, except for a notify sound when an event has been recorded. Finally, Echoes can also operate getting an audio input, thus producing audio spectra. This way, Echoes can also be used with traditional receivers.

    HAMLIB SDK (Evolved JTSDK)

    Hamlib Software Developer's Kit Supporting Qt & JT-based HAM Software

    The aim is to support learning withinof Hamlib-centric software . See https://hamlib-sdk.sourceforge.io . This kit is designed to support research and learning into Hamlib (https://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib/) and WSJT-X (https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx.html). Follow discussion at JTSDK @ GROUPS.IO . The file(s) needed to deploy the current kit are : - https://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib-sdk/files/Windows/JTSDK-4.1-Stream/JTSDK64-4.1.1.exe Hamlib is dynamic due to the differences in hardware capabilities. See: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib/ Current efforts focus on learning and compiling "JT" software. Packages are provided that enable kits to be easily maintained and updated. Thanks to all the contributors - Remembering Mike W9MDB(sk) - who have contributed to us receiving recognition with SourceForge with a Community Choice Award.
