The WiNRADiO WR-G305e/PD is a software-defined PC-based wideband receiver (9 kHz to 1800 MHz). It represents an external version of the WR-G305i receiver, with equivalent performance.
In addition to the flexible and friendly user interface, with its numerous functions and facilities not normally available on conventional receivers, the WiNRADiO G305e/PD receiver excels particularly by the ability of its demodulators: While the Standard Demodulator provides performance of a highly respectable general-coverage scanner, including a real-time spectrum scope, synchronous AM demodulation and other features, the Professional Demodulator offers even more: continuous IF filter bandwidth adjustment (in 1 Hz increments), interactive block diagrams with two additional audio spectrum scopes, and even built-in signal measurement facilities.
An optional DRM decoder/demodulator is also available.
The PC-based receiver is USB-controlled and compatible with modern desktop and laptop computers with USB interface. An optional serial interface is also available.
A Software Defined Radio (SDR) is such where demodulation and the last IF (intermediate frequency) processing are done entirely in software. Usually this means using a DSP, but in the case of the G305e/PD, this processing is done on a PC. Most modern PCs are now faster and more powerful than many DSPs were only a few years ago. So, if you own a PC, the chances are that you already own an important part of a software defined radio receiver!
