In addition to fully supporting CW Skimmer in wideband mode, I have discovered two more very interesting applications for I/Q output to VAC.
1. SpectraVue 2.31, available free from http://www.moetronix.com/svdownload.htm This is an excellent spectrum analyzer. Although designed to support the RF Space SDR-IQ, it also has an audio input mode. When the 5K is in 192khz mode I use this to show the wide spectrum, in tandem with the panadapter in PowerSDR focussing in on details. 2. DL4YHF's Spectraum Lab, available free from http://freenet-homepage.de/dl4yhf/spectra1.html This is a fully programmable laboratory for processing I/Q signals. Besides being a configurable spectrum analyzer, it has an array of decoder modules and other functions. 3. And, because VAC can support multiple attachments to a single cable, PowerSDR can run both SpectraVue and Spectrum Lab at the same time. I have even tested running them both plus CW Skimmer all at the same time. 73 Ed W2RF _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
