Software Reviews and Criticism


  • By Bob44224

    Smooth and Excellent

    SmartSDR for the Windows made my 6400 almost a new radio. Having struggled with the PC version with driver issues, freezups, lost profiles etc I was about to give up. I switched over to the Windows and used DogparkSDR which is excellent in its own right but didn't give me that "SmartSDR Interface Experience". Well, this app does it and more. Very much appreciating the work that went into this and can recommend it with no reservations.

    Perfectly compiments the Flex

    I have been using my Flex for a couple of months now and immediately purchsed the amp as soon as the rig was delivered. Worked seamlessly and perfectly no hiccups or glitches at all. After comparing the Windows version there is no comparision the Windows version is hands down superior with more features and stability. I love it.

    Oustanding Work and Great Support

    Marcus' work on this is amazing. It is truly wonderful to be able to leave the WIndows version of SmartSDR behind and have a native Windows app to use. Additionally, Marcus' communication, support, and willingness to accept all suggetions and consider new features means is top notch! Don't hesitate to puchase this. It is well worth the cost. Amazing job, Marcus!

    Occasional buffer underruns and RX audio dropouts

    SmartSDR for Windows's audio queueing mechanism is not as resilient to jitter or buffer underruns as the Windows version. Even with a 10Gb fiber network backhaul between AP and FlexRadio 6700, it is common to have audio dropouts and buffer underruns when using a 2019 PC (via wifi). 0 packet loss, latency less than 10 milliseconds, and no errors in Network Stats listed. My IP telephony apps work fine, and FlexRadio for Windows handles this use case perfectly as well.

    FANTASTIC!

    I was skeptical about paying $160 for another program for my Flex 6400, but after trying the iOS version of the program I figured I'd give it a try. I recently purchased the radio and have been using the Win software and kept running into "driver" issues w/ DAX which further prompted me to try the Windows version. I must say that this software should be the default app for Flex radios. It just works with NO drama, all the built in features worked with no issues. The GUI is nicer than the Win version and FT8 app is perfect. Well done and highly recommended!
