Basic Goals and Status:
----------------------
- Simple UI
- Devices
- [x] RTL-SDR (RTL2832U)
- [ ] HackRF
- [ ] Whatever else I can get my hands on
- Minimal configuration
- [ ] Device
- [ ] Bandwidth
- [ ] Default audio device and settings
- [ ] Color scheme
- [ ] Load/Save session
- Neat Visuals
- [x] Scope
- [x] Spectrum
- [x] Waterfall
- [ ] More 2D visuals
- [ ] 3D visuals
- Demodulation:
- [x] Multiple demodulators per IQ stream
- [x] Audio device selection
- [x] Modes
- [x] FM
- [x] FM stereo
- [x] AM
- [x] LSB
- [x] USB
- [ ] Controls
- [ ] Display Frequency and allow manual adjustments
- [x] Allow selection of demodulation type
- [x] Display separate zoomed-in view of current waterfall and spectrum, allow adjustments
- [x] Display signal level and allow squelch control
- [x] Display audio output selection
- [ ] Volume control
- [ ] Basic noise reduction / filter controls?
- Basic Input Controls
- [x] Drag spectrum to change center frequency
- [x] Hold shift and click on waterfall to create a new demodulator
- [x] Clicking waterfall adds new demodulator when none visible
- [x] Drag center of demodulator on waterfall to change frequency
- [x] Drag edge of demodulator on waterfall to change bandwidth
- [x] Double-Click to move demodulator to frequency within it's current range
- [x] Hold alt and drag range on waterfall to set demodulator frequency + bandwidth
- [x] Hold alt+shift and drag range on waterfall for a new demodulator
- [x] Hover demodulator on waterfall and press 's' to toggle squelch
- [x] Hover demodulator on waterfall and press 'space' to toggle stereo
- [x] Hover demodulator on waterfall and press 'd' or 'delete' to delete it
- [x] Keyboard arrows adjust frequency, shift for faster change
- [ ] Undo / Redo action
- IQ Recording and playback
- [ ] Recording
- [ ] Playback
- Audio
- [ ] Recording
Advanced Goals:
--------------
- Basic demodulator filter(s) that can be enabled and tweaked visually
- Support multiple simultaneous device usage
* Categorize devices by antenna connections
* Allow locked frequencies to activate unused devices to continue demodulation on same antenna
- Implement digital demodulation supported by liquid-dsp: (http://liquidsdr.org/doc/modem.html)
* PSK, DPSK, ASK, QAM, APSK, BPSK, QPSK, OOK, SQAM, Star Modem(?)
- Integrate LUA
* Expose liquid-dsp functionality
* Scriptable liquid-dsp demodulation
* Scriptable digital demodulation output handlers
- Create block output devices on *nix?
- Create socket outputs?
- Visual outputs?
* Take control of additional devices and spawning new demodulators (i.e. trunkers)
* Script manager / live editor
* Provide scriptable liquid-dsp modulation for trancievers?
Target Platforms:
----------------
- [x] OSX
- [x] Windows
- [ ] Linux
