- | ====== SDR Web-based Shared Access Receiver (RX) ====== | ||
- | |||
- | ===== You may already have noticed that... ===== | ||
- | |||
- | ...we have SDR receiving (RX) capability set up. | ||
- | |||
- | * For educational purposes: for example when holding courses or open-door days and projects. | ||
- | * For test purposes: for example to test our RF transmissions (TX). | ||
- | |||
- | The SDR receiving end of our shack is composed of 1 receiver. | ||
- | Our " | ||
- | |||
- | Work is in progress to add VHF: | ||
- | Our "Berry SiDeR", | ||
- | |||
- | Frequency ranges | ||
- | * KiwiSDR: 10 kHz to 30 MHz (VLF-HF spectrum) - with optimal range limited to between 1.6 MHz and 56 MHz due to the Diplexer (see below). | ||
- | * | ||
- | * RTL-SDR: 24 MHz - 1766 MHz (HF-VHF-UHF spectrum) - with optimal range between 76 MHz 470 MHz due to the Diplexer (see below). | ||
- | |||
- | Both connected to the same antenna through a diplexer (which on it's way per mail). | ||

- | The number of concurrent users are restricted on OpenWebRX, typically to five or six for a single 2 MHz RTL-SDR. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | OpenWebRX is a python based software that allows to run a web server to which multiple users can connect to the RTL-SDR and listen to it through a web interface. | ||

- | ===== About the Antenna ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Since 2024 a "Mini Whip Active Antenna" | ||
- | Planned to be replaced with an Eggbeater antenna in 2025, which has a lower noise floor compared to the Mini Whip, it is located on the side of the building, it's best exposition is along the North South axis. | ||
- | |||
- | The Eggbeater Satellite Antenna has a Ground Plane and is resonant on 70 cm. | ||
- | We have tested it and has proven itself to be a great omnidirectional base station antenna receiving antenna for all Amateur Radio, Broadcast bands and many services. | ||
- | The ground plane elements under the Eggbeater increases the overall upward gain of the antenna, useful for hearing Satellites and the International Space Station. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== About the Diplexer ===== | ||
- | |||
- | DIAMOND MX-62M Diplexer for the ranges between 1.6 MHz and 56 MHz, and between 76MHz and 470 MHz. | ||
- | Allows to connect one antenna to two receivers. | ||
- | |||
- | The diplexer limits the optimal ranges of the SDRs to an overall smaller bandwidth, | ||
- | this limitation can be overcome by bypassing the diplexer for the required time, at the cost of using one SDR at a time. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== About the KiWi SDR SW HF Receiver ===== | ||
- | |||
- | It comes with a GPS Antenna for precise timing. | ||
- | The KiwiSDR is a software-defined radio that attaches to a Seeed BeagleBone Green (BBG) embedded computer. | ||
- | It is a standalone device that allows access through LAN and optionally through the Internet. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== About the OpenWebRX SW running on Raspberry Pi ===== | ||
- | |||
- | OpenWebRX is a multi-user SDR receiver that can be operated from any web browser without the need for any additional client software. | ||
- | Requires a computer, an SDR device and network access. | ||
- | |||
- | OpenWebRX is designed for public shared access. | ||
