    Yeah, looks nice, but it's really hard to justify $150 for this. I will just use a PC, or one of the other Mac options like CubicSDR, at a pinch.

    Does it support DMR and D-STAR decoding? The iOS version option is seriously interesting for iPad users.

    • @hamradioscience

      No DMR or D-Star decoding. FT8, RTTY, and Wefax decoding built in.

      You can get the iPad version of SmartSDR. Works well and easy to use. It doesn’t have quite as many features as the desktop version but close. There are also some inexpensive add ons for it that add additional capabilities.

      The Flexradio 6400M shown in the vid comes in at a cool $3,299 U.S.D. ... if you're able to play in that game, dropping a few quid for a bit of software shouldn't raise much of a sweat.
      I'm slumming it with a $30 USB dongle and cheapo free software.

      Actually this is a very reasonable price when you consider this program was written by an independent developer. You get a much superior version of SmartSDR and more features than the Windows version. Marcus responds very quickly to fixing issues with software as well as with customer support requests. The Windows version of SmartSDR can often take several months before technical issues are resolved. Not to mention Mac users no longer have to use Boot Camp or a Virtual Machine to run the Windows version.
