First I would like to say how impressed I have been with the little
SoftRock40 and the PowerSDR software. It has been a long time
since I
have worked HF and this has really got me interested again. Thanks
to
everyone who has put this together.
I have been thinking about putting the SoftRock40 on the internet
with a
simple server reading the I/Q signals and serving them to clients
that
connect (limited by my uplink speed). What is interesting about
this is
that each client can then independently tune across the passband of
the
receiver. Imagine a whole network of these little receivers around
the
world. Want to check out the conditions on 40 Mtrs in Europe -
just
connect to one in Europe and tune around!
I am a Unix/Linux/Java software engineer by profession and have
good
development systems for these environments. I do not have any
Microsoft
development systems - note the email address ;-).
I have downloaded the Linux code and am currently working on this
to use
a socket connection to receive the I/Q data, and also looking at
implementing a GUI interface - possibly in Java.
Would anyone be interested in helping with this development? In
particular I would be looking for someone that would be prepared to
look
at the PowerSDR Windows code to modify it to get the audio data
from a
socket rather than the audio device or a Wave file.
let me know what you think and if you can be of any help.

I wish I could help I couldn't code my way out of a wet paper bag in
C, C++, or C#.
But Phil Covington N8VB seems to be working on a similar slant, his
page www.philcovington.com, under software projects has a couple of
intersting parts and with Mono someone might be able to get something
started.
