Objectives today

As mentioned yesterday, I have had a very little used RSP1B  SDR receiver for some time. 

Today, I want to install free SDRconnect software and start using the receiver seriously.

UPDATE 0905z: SDRconnect installed.

UPDATE 1731z: Steep learning curve! I am trying to get to know how to use it.

SDRplay SDR receivers

The UK company SDRplay make a range of SDR receivers including one which can be used over the internet remotely. I have the RSP1B, which I have hardly used yet. 

MLS has a video about the networked version which also says a lot about the SDRconnect software.

SDRplay RSP1B

For about 2 years I have owned an SDRplay RSP1B, SDR receiver, but it has hardly been used. In the near future I must explore it far more.  It covers 1kHz to 2GHz.

More on the SDRplay RSP1B SDR receiver

In the last few days I have not found time to play with, and familiarise myself, with the RSP1B receiver. There is a lot to learn, but on the default settings it does a credible job. 

An eHam.com review will have to wait until I have really got to grips with it. My first impressions are that it is a sensiitve on 2m and 70m as my FT817ND, but more artifacts than I was expecting.
