📻 CyberRadio

A SDR based FM/AM radio App for the desktop. Video Demo

Compatible with most SDRs supported by SoapySDR. Based on the radio-core module. Accelerated on the GPU with CUDA by #cuSignal and on the CPU with Numba functions.

Features

• 📻 Listen to wideband FM and AM Stations with Stereo Support.
• ⏩ Hot-swap SDRs without closing the app.
• 🖱️ Programmable frequency shortcuts (Ctrl + Left Click).
• 📦 Zero-installation pre-compiled binary packages.
• 💻 Efficient DSP.

Compatibility

• Linux
• macOS Sierra
• Windows 10
• ARM SoC

Validated Radios

• AirSpy HF+ Discovery
• LimeSDR Mini/USB
• PlutoSDR
• RTL-SDR

Installation

Pre-compiled binary packages will be available once this app reaches beta. For now, if you want to try the pre-release version of the app, you should compile it yourself by following the instructions below.

System Dependencies

• SoapySDR Base (Repo)
• SoapySDR Modules (LimeSuite, AirspyHF, PlutoSDR, RTL-SDR)
• Python 3.5+ and Pip
• PulseAudio

Ubuntu/Debian

After installing the base SoapySDR and its modules, install the direct dependencies with apt:

$ apt install libpulse-dev libsamplerate-dev libasound2-dev portaudio19-dev

Python Dependencies

$ git clone https://github.com/luigifreitas/CyberRadio
$ cd CyberRadio
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Running

$ fbs run 

Compile Static Binary

$ fbs freeze

Generate Installer

$ fbs installer

Hacking

The DSP used in this project is also available on the PyAudio Repository. This is a better and more comprehensive way to start hacking this App. If you are interested in the core DSP, you should look for radio-core.

Roadmap

This is a list of unfinished tasks that I pretend to pursue soon. Pull requests are more than welcome!

• Study porting the UI to QML.
• Add AM Support.
• Add USB/LSB Support.
• Add TX capability.
• Finish RDS decoder.
• Add more settings.
• Implement settings memory.
• Better Stereo reliability detector.
• Docker cross-compiler for AArch-64.
• Docker cross-compiler for Windows.
