v0.2.0 — Audio Demodulation + RTL-SDR
What's New
🔊 AM Audio Demodulation
- Full AM demodulation pipeline: frequency shift → LPF → decimation → envelope detection → DC removal
- 4-thread architecture: Capture → DSP/FFT → TUI + Audio
- Cursor = tuner: active cursor plays audio, inactive = mute
- Volume control:
v/Vkeys or/volume 75command - Squelch:
/squelch -60to silence noise between transmissions - Audio output via cpal (system default device)
📡 RTL-SDR Hardware Support
- Full RTL-SDR integration (requires
--features rtlsdr+librtlsdr) - Device enumeration at startup
- CLI params applied to hardware:
--gain,--ppm,-f,-s - Tested with Nooelec NESDR SMArt v5 (RTL2832U / R820T)
⌨️ Command Palette
- Press
/to open VSCode-style command palette - 18 commands with autocompletion
- Parameterized commands:
channelbw 50k,frequency 118.1M,volume 75 - Error handling: invalid params show error, palette stays open
🧪 Improved Test Mode
- TestSource reacts to frequency changes (signals shift like real SDR)
- Synthetic AM signal generator for TDD
📊 Stats
- 267 tests
- Zero compiler warnings
Building
# Without RTL-SDR hardware
cargo build --release
# With RTL-SDR support (requires librtlsdr-dev)
cargo build --release --features rtlsdrPre-built Binary
The attached binary is built for Linux x86_64 with RTL-SDR support. Requires librtlsdr.so on your system (sudo pacman -S rtl-sdr on Arch, sudo apt install librtlsdr0 on Debian/Ubuntu).
