I finished my SoftRock-40 and it worked first time on Windows with SDRadio. Thanks!

I tried installing jDttsp and its many pre-reqs (python-2.4, jack, GNU SDL-1.6) on FC3 but I couldn't find any documentation on their site about what it does or how it does it, or even what keys to press, but it did appear to start up.

So I tried SDRadio under WINE and it ran. I had to kick ALSA by clickign on the volume control buttons a few times in the mixer (for some reason this seems to happen after reboots).
The bottom part of the buttons and the right edge are cut off, but at least it receives CW!

I'm using a Griffin iMic as the sound device. If you have a laptop with mono sound, you might try one of these. They're cheap and will get you up and running.

What might be the success of using it with Linspire 5.0? I know many Linux
users do not consider it "real" Linux but it works for me since I am not very
geeky.
I do not have my receiver yet so I have not been able to try it.

Do you mean DTTSP or SDRadio?

SDradio would probably function equivalently on Linspire. They or the
CodeWeavers / Crossover people might have a little better luck with
the window edges and the window minimization behavior, which are
sub-par on Fedora Core 3 with WINE.

DTTSP appears to be a technology core with some test programs, not
intended for direct use, so I doubt it would run on anything other
than the exact setup the authors have. (The source code, of course,
is being re-used inside other projects, such as the FlexRadio software.)

What I'd really like to see a back end implementation of SDR with no
UI, and a network interface. I had hoped that was what jttdsp was
(Python/C) but it's hard to tell.

I'd like to hear from anyone who can make DTTSP do something, or who
can make Linrad do something with the SoftRock 40.

Maybe I can write one in Java for cross-platform use.

I updated to the latest wine from winehq.com and the window display
issues went away. SDRadio is much easier for me to use than PowerSDR.
It is just two files, runs right away, and has almost no learning
curve. No doubt PowerSDR is more featureful, but many of the UI
features aren't necessary for the SoftRock-40, as it lacks TX and a
VFO. 73, Leigh / WA5ZNU
