These are some screen captures showing the SDRMAXII software from the first version I used (circa 1st April 2008), through to version 1.0.0.11. A larger, less compressed image can be fetched (and probably displayed by your browser) by clicking any picture. The size and type of image is indicated in brackets, because some of them are quite large.
It is currently PRELIMINARY and ALPHA software, but as you can see, it looks very good and, I find it works very well. Check the QS1R VERB main site for more information on SDRMAXII and the QS1R versatile radio board. |

One of my first screen captures with the unmodified SDRMAXII software. I was amazed to see glissando so clearly. (1023x760 .gif 225kB) This is the only picture of the GUI before Cathy started messing with it :) The two pictures below are cut from the waterfall display of the same version. |
 |
Strangely varying modulation around 75kHz. (990x251 .gif 190kB) Looks like an unlocked oscillator, running wild. |
 |
No way to QSY!. (1000x256 .gif 194kB) |

Medium Wave AM broadcast stations. Also showing the first changes to the GUI by Cathy. (1027x765 .png 704kB). |
 |
Same software version as the picture above, just showing the pan and waterfall display. (1023x505 .png 681kB) |
 |
More amplitude modulation centred on 657kHz. (1024x508 .png 688kB) |
 |
More changes to the GUI and using a lower (50kHz) sampling rate this time.(1020x760 .png 601kB) I think it was this version which included a new 'hands free' tuning feature dubbed 'Inertia'. By dragging and releasing the pointer in the panadapter area, the tuning continues until left click. By dragging and releasing with an upward motion I was able to tune from 0 to 50MHz in 15 seconds! Didn't hear anything at that speed though :) There's also an 'Vari-Tune' feature, which is "When you drag the spectrum from side to side with the mouse, the amount of movement varies depending on the vertical position of the mouse cursor". So, for fine tuning drag near the base of the panadapter, or near the top for course tuning. |

Back to 100kHz sampling. The current QS1R server can load sampling widths of 50, 100, 250, 500, 1000, 1250 and 2000kHz. More changes to the GUI layout by Cathy. (1020x755 .png 735kB) |

Same sampling rate. A little further up the medium wave broadcast band. A noise spike which was seen, but not heard. (1019x758 .png 780kB) See more changes on the next page. |
