How to: BladeRF transverter with SDR# on Windows

[drew23]

Hi All

I have written a blog post on using the BladeRF transverter with SDR#; nothing original on my part, just a summary of how to do it based on various sources around the web: http://vk4zxi.blogspot.com.au/2014/07/b ... -with.html

Albeit with very limited testing on a very basic antenna, it seems to work quite well within the limitation of USB2. I haven't tried it on HF, but care is needed as there is little protection for the BladeRF itself.

All credit to others re software and hardware.

Looks good Drew!

I would direct users to the latest version of SDR# though, downloadable from http://www.sdrsharp.com and then to Jean-Michel's files at https://github.com/jmichelp/sdrsharp-bladerf . Follow the instructions at his site to update SDR# to work properly. Both this plug-in and SDR# change rapidly, and the version at my website is now dated, albeit only a few days old.

Excellent tutorial though and should be a help to anyone wishing to experiment.

Hi Scott

I have edited my post per your information. Blog posts are handy for that, rather than having to follow dozens of posts.
