A Software Defined Radio in C#

rtl-sdr.com - A blog about RTL-SDR and software defined radio RTL-SDR community on Reddit rtl-sdr – OsmoSDR DVB-T dongles based on the Realtek RTL2832U can be used as a cheap SDR, since the chip allows transferring the raw I/Q samples to the host, which is officially used for DAB/DAB+/FM demodulation. The possibility of this has been discovered by Eric Fry (History and Discovery of RTLSDR). Antti Palosaari has not been involved in development of rtl-sdr. Specifications¶ The RTL2832U outputs 8-bit I/Q-samples, and the highest theoretically possible sample-rate is 3.2 MS/s, however, the highest sample-rate without lost samples that has been tested wit regular USB controllers so far is 2.4 MS/s. Supported Hardware¶ Note: Many devices with EEPROM have 0x2838 as PID and RTL2838 as product name, but in fact all of them have an RTL2832U inside.brRealtek never released a chip marked as RTL2838 so far.The following devices are known to work fine with RTLSDR software: People over at reddit are collecting a list of other devices that are compatible. This is the PCB of the ezcap-stick: Software¶ Binary Builds¶
