Pi SDR IQ Solo for Flex SDR1000

  +      +      

In this SDR1000 solution, Pi SDR IQ Solo can be used with Flex SDR1000 radios on modern Win/10 PC systems. This is possible with the use of a Pi SDR LPT adapter in order to connect on the SDR1000 LPT rig control port. Using this add-on, SDR1000 rigs got revitalized and now can be used in a transparent way with all the modern PCs with Windows 7/8/10 and the familiar PowerSDR application. With this configuration, SDR1000 users can utilize the modern Win/10 systems that do lack the older LPT port.

Thus Pi SDR IQ Solo can be used for ADC/DAC DSP as the older audio cards were used and also now can control the SDR1000 rig via the LPT connection, total solution in a single package!

Pi SDR IQ Solo is the cost effective solution with CS4270 codec giving 105dB of Rx dynamic range to your rig. If increased performance is required, there is the high end Pi SDR IQ Plus with 124dB ADC dynamic range..

Operation is done by the PowerSDR application (based on v2.5.3) having extensions to utilize the new I/Q interfaces. Its operation is transparent, just make the cable connections, start the application and you're up and running.

Setup guide and the PowerSDR v2.5.3 Pi SDR Extensions for the Flex SDR1000 solution can be downloaded from the Support/Downloads menu.

SDR1000 rig should have all ECOs applied and the RFE SDR1000 board is required to be present for operation.
