Software Features and Description

1. Thus, the use of this app requires network access to a server, such as a Raspberry Pi (or Mac), with an RTL-SDR unit plugged into its USB port, and running the rtl_tcp protocol at an TCP/IP network address accessible from your iOS device.

2. Please do not download this app unless you are already familiar with Software Defined Radio, have an RTL-SDR or equivalent USB SDR peripheral, and have already installed and tested rtl_tcp on your Raspberry Pi, Mac, or other server.

3. The rtl_tcp SDR app can also connect to hfp_tcp for the Airspy HF+, rsp_tcp for SDRPlay devices, and lmm_tcp for the LimeSDR Mini; see GitHub for server source code.

4. Connect, via the rtl_tcp network protocol, to networked RTL-SDR USB peripherals.

5. Note that this app requires a very high bandwidth network connection in order to receive streams of real-time RF samples from an RTL-SDR.

6. No support is provided for installing any of the rtl_tcp or other tcp software needed to use this app (with a Raspberry Pi, or otherwise).

7. It is recommended that your rtl_tcp server be on a wired connection rather than on the same WiFi as your iOS device.

8. An RTL-SDR Software Defined Radio receiver app for iOS devices.

9. This app requires an external rtl_tcp server.

10. iOS devices do not currently support the direct connection of USB peripherals such as an RTL-SDR.

11. This app can also connect directly to a networked Hermes Lite 2 QRP SDR transceiver, no server required.

Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Works great

    By Flintstone, Fred (Pcmac user)

    The BIG variable is network bandwidth. But at the lowest sampling rate it works good. Using a Raspberry Pi 3+ server. Up/Down tuning buttons would be nice with it changing the selected frequency digit for slow or fast tuning.
  • Could use some polish...

    By KD0 (Pcmac user)

    This is the ONLY (iOS) RTL-SDR application in town. It’s get the job down, albeit crashes occasionally and could use some polish. I’d like to be about to pinch bandwidth. Needs a LOT of work. I sincerely hope they continue developing. Could be a great app. Not worth $10, I hate to say..
  • It is works but lack several functions

    By sendmans (Pcmac user)

    - bookmark of frequencies is too small (only allow to save 5 freq) - real-time saving - auto scanning
