Sweeps any set of frequency ranges, records what it finds, and works out
what kind of signal it was.
- Frequency ranges entered by hand or picked from a 135-entry US band plan,
including whole-band and all-CW sweeps that resolve the demodulator per
segment.
- Detection calibrated against the peak-hold detector's own noise statistics,
so the threshold means real margin over static rather than over the floor.
- A content gate: captures are kept only if they carry voice, decodable CW,
or an identified digital keying scheme. Speech is recognised by a pitch
track that drifts, which static cannot imitate.
- Identification of NFM/WFM/AM/SSB, CW with Morse decoded to text, P25, DMR,
NXDN, D-STAR, POCSAG, FLEX, ACARS, AIS, APRS, n-FSK and n-PSK.
- Gapless streaming capture, with the signal path fast enough to keep up in
real time, so recordings play back at the right speed.
- Optional one-file-per-frequency recording with spoken timestamps, and
speech-to-text transcription.
- Menus and command line generated from one settings table, so neither can
offer something the other cannot; settings persist in ~/.config.
367 tests, run against synthetic signals, a built-in receiver simulator, and
real hardware.
