SDRangel is an open-source software-defined radio (SDR) receiver and transmitter application with a Qt5/OpenGL-based GUI, supporting a wide range of SDR hardware including Airspy, RTL-SDR, HackRF, BladeRF, LimeSDR, PlutoSDR, SDRplay, and FunCube Dongle. It also functions as a signal analyzer and supports various digital communication modes such as D-Star, DMR, YSF, and dPMR.

Use cases

  • receive and decode radio signals with an RTL-SDR dongle
  • transmit signals using a HackRF or BladeRF
  • analyze RF signals with a spectrum analyzer view
  • decode digital voice modes like DMR and D-Star
  • use a LimeSDR or PlutoSDR for general SDR experimentation
  • run a headless SDR server controlled remotely via web interface

When to choose

  • you need a full-featured GUI application for SDR reception and transmission
  • you want broad hardware support across many SDR devices in one program
  • you need digital mode decoding (DMR, D-Star, YSF, dPMR) built in
  • you want both a desktop GUI and a headless server option with remote control

When to avoid

  • you need a lightweight command-line-only SDR tool
  • you want a simple waterfall-only receiver without advanced features
  • you need a web-based SDR interface as the primary experience (see SDRangelcli instead)
  • your hardware is not among the supported device list
