FFTDSP is a PC program which can detect weak radio signals in real time.  

             - Uses the PC's soundcard and advanced signal processing techniques.

             - Extracts and displays weak signals from the receiver audio.

The example output screen shows a typical two minute period of moon bounce (EME) operation.  Near the top are four "echo" test transmissions.  The transmit signal is shown just above 500 Hz and the receive echos at 780 Hz.  The first echo was the strongest at just under 20 dB S/N.  Starting at 2356z, IK5DCX is shown calling CQ at 700 Hz with a fairly good signal (approx 10 dB S/N).

FFTDSP Demo Version 42y now available:

If using the "FIND" mode, here is the latest eme.ws file:

• Real Time Color Spectrum Graph with 2 Hz Filtering (4096 Point FFT)
• Automatic Color Gradient for Optimum Visibility
• Numerical Frequency display of Max Amplitude Signal (2 Hz resolution)
• Record and Playback WAV files for post spectral analysis
• Integration mode for signal detection below the noise
• Mouse point and click for selective recording
• On screen Moon Az/El, TOD & East/West sequences
• True S/N (in 100 Hz ref) measurement & bar graph
• Selective area and mode for S/N display
• Display Smoothing Filters (Hamming, Cosine, etc.)
• Zoom In/Out for narrow (1300 Hz) or wide (2500 Hz) display
• Improved Graphics Interface and Setup Screens
• Find Call feature shows most probable calls
• Object tracking by RA/DEC
• Data Logging for long term unattended monitoring (such as SETI)

System Requirements:

• 386, 20 Mhz with Coprocessor
