Introducing the SDRplay Raspberry Pi downloadable SD Card Image
This link takes you to the downloads page for Raspberry Pi SD card Images: (Last updated, Dec 23rd 2020 to add RPi4 8G and RPi-400 OS compatibility) Please note there is a choice of two versions depending on which RSP you have and a third for operation as a headless server
Bringing the Radio Spectrum to your computer: In this video we show the process of downloading an SD card image for a Raspberry Pi and SDRplay RSP1A Software Defined Radio receiver. We also demonstrate how to launch CubicSDR and GNU radio software. The result is a powerful platform for exploring and harnessing the radio spectrum whether for fun, education or R&D.
Unlike low cost dongles, SDRplay receivers include advanced filtering to minimise unwanted artifacts or false signals. The RSP1A covers the entire spectrum from 1 kHz to 2 GHz with no gaps.
This is one of many video guides from SDRplay - makers of the RSP family of SDR radios. See the full list of SDRplay videos and applications documents on:
