echoes online with Winfy

We have hosted the application echoes in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about echoes:

Echoes it's a radio spectral analysis software for SDR devices, designed for meteor scattering purposes.
The older releases supported only RTL-SDR devices. They are very cheap SDR based on DVB-T TV tuner dongles based on Realtek's
RTL2832U chipset. Starting from 0.50 Echoes embeds SoapySDR allowing the support of many other SDRs.
Echoes doesn't demodulate neither decode any human-made signal. Its main goal is to analyze and record the total power of natural signals and generate screenshots and tabular data (CSV,) output in presence of particular peaks in a selected narrow range of frequencies. Since there is no demodulation, there is no provision for audio listening, except for a notify sound when an event has been recorded.

Features:

• Captures waterfall spectra as PNG screenshots and statistics data files.
• Multiple instances can manage separate dongles plugged in the same computer
• Three operating modes: continuos (records data only), periodic (captures data and screenshot every X seconds) and automatic (record data and screeshot each time a customizable (S-N) treshold is exceeded)
• The same dongle can be shared by different instances simultaneously via UDP
• binary Installers ready for Windows7++ (64bit) and RPM / DEB / xz for Linux
• It can run headless, recording text dumps and statistic data only
• Daily archiving of captured shots and data in sqlite3 database file
• The collected data can be extracted and analyzed thru the Ebrow utility
