# RTLSDR Scanner # Copyright 2012 - 2015 Al Brown al [at] eartoearoak.com A cross platform Python frequency scanning GUI for the OsmoSDR rtl-sdr [library](http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr). More details can be found [here](http://eartoearoak.com/software/rtlsdr-scanner). A basic [user manual](https://github.com/EarToEarOak/RTLSDR-Scanner/blob/master/doc/Manual.pdf?raw=true) is also available. Tested on: - Windows 7 (x86 and x64) - Windows 8.1 (x64) - Ubuntu 12.04 (x86) - Ubuntu 12.10 (x64) - Ubuntu 13.04 (x64) - Ubuntu 14.04 (x64) - OS X Snow Leopard - OS X Mountain Lion ## Installation ## Installation instructions are found [here](http://eartoearoak.com/software/rtlsdr-scanner/rtlsdr-scanner-installation). Windows executables for x86 and amd64 platforms are available on [GitHub](https://github.com/EarToEarOak/RTLSDR-Scanner/releases). ## Requirements ## - [Python 2.7.x](http://www.python.org) - [wxPython](http://www.wxpython.org/) - [matplotlib](http://matplotlib.org/) - [numpy](http://www.numpy.org/) - [Pillow](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow) - [rtlsdr](http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr) - [pyrtlsdr](https://github.com/roger-/pyrtlsdr) - [pyserial](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial) To test for missing libraries run `rtlsdr_scan_diag.py` Windows 64 bit modules can be found [here](http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/) ## Usage ## `python -m rtlsdr_scanner [file]` file - optional saved scan file to load **Main Window** - **Start** - Scan start frequency - **Stop** - Scan stop frequency - **Mode** - Single or continuous scanning - **Dwell** - Sampling time spent on each step - **FFT Size** - FFT size, greater values result in higher analysis precision (with higher sizes dwell should be increased) - **Live update** - Update the display on each step (caution only use with small scans and low dwell times) - **Grid** - Show a grid on the scan **File Menu** - **Open...** - Open a saved scan - **Save As...** - Save a scan - **Export...** - Export a scan to a CSV file - **Properties..** - Scan information **Edit Menu** - **Preferences** - Set dongle gain, calibration, Local Oscillator and the sample bands to use **Scan Menu** - **Start** - Start a scan - **Stop** - Stop a scan **Tools Menu** - **Compare** - Compare two previously saved scans - **Auto Calibration** - Perform a crude calibration of the dongle to a known signal (this should be a continuous, steady signal) ## License ## This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation version 3.
