SDR# Frequency Manager + Scanner Plugin Updated to Version 1.6
The widely used Frequency Manager + Scanner Plugin for SDR# has recently been updated to version 1.6. It can be downloaded from sdrsharpplugins.com. Note that this version requires SDR# version 1248 or newer, so run install.bat if you haven’t done so in a while. The new features are as follows:
Frequency Manager
- The Frequency Description is now displayed in the upper-right corner of the spectrum analyzer, along with the indicator for multiple database entries for that frequency.
- As a result of moving the above information to the spectrum analyzer, the Frequency Manager panel is now 35% smaller.
- The Clipboard Monitor now optionally watches the clipboard for frequencies you might have copied from the internet; and if that can be converted to a MHz value it tunes the radio to that frequency.
- Function Keys F1-F10 can now be used to tune to a preset frequency.
Scanner
- A new Minimum Signal Strength Line is displayed on the spectrum display. This, along with real-time display of the current signal’s strength when the scanner is running, let you see at a glance how that signal compares to your scanner settings. In addition you can use customize the line with one of 6 line patterns.
- Current Signal Strength in dB is displayed in the upper right corner of the spectrum analyzer, just after the Frequency Description.
- Timeout and Watchdog timers’ indicators are now displayed in the upper right corner of the spectrum analyzer.
Do frequencies need to be manually entered, or does the plugin search and run? I just installed, but can’t find out how to enable the new plugin. Is there a “manual” on the internet? All helpful suggestions welcomed! Thank you! Fre
Dead link. Anyone has a working link to share?
I cannot get get v 1.6 to install. I keep getting an error message that a file needed is in use by another program. I’ve rebooted and tried to install with nothing else running. No good. Any ideas?
