With G40 on 40m to Europe: finally!

G40 on 40m to Europe: finally! Worked two DL yesterday morning and RN2A today, JT65, 4W. My window of opportunity to Europe is just 10-15 minutes around 20:00 UTC and finding a clear frequency is almost impossible. But Little G40 is surely capable of making two-way into EU :-)

The narrow-band JT9 presents even more opportunities for QRP DXing. I can easily decode signals at SNR of -26 which is as good as WSPR. No QRM either! I am missing on so much fun :-( The JT9 frequency is 7.078 MHz plus around 0.5-1K audio.

VIDEO: download and installation of GSDR software

This short video is about downloading and installing GSDR software. It will also show how to do some very basic settings: hardware selection, skins, COM port etc.

If you are new to SDR and GSDR in particular and you are currently building G40 or G3020 then I strongly recommend to watch it.

Your GSDR will be set in less than 10 minutes!

What I've failed to say in the video: if you have more than one G** radio hardware then do setup multiple GSDR: one installation for G40, another for G11 etc.
