Anybody tried to run something like fldigi on a Raspberry Pi?

It seems like this could be the ultimate low power compact battery powered computer for field PSK31 or other digital modes.

Just bought a Pi 3 and was thinking about doing a little experimentation.  The 3 seems like it has a little more horsepower and might be able to handle the demands.

I don't see why it 'wouldn't' work...

http://photobyte.org/product/raspberry-pi-fldigi/ I may order me one of those!

http://blog.pwcares.org/?p=47 not sure where this winds up....

I would like to try one for JT65 just for the heck of it...think someone posted that one a week or so ago

Most phones can decode PSK these days. I've even sent/decoded just by holding the speaker up to the microphone. Not ideal, but it works. I'd really love a pi that could run JT-65 though.

I'd like one for JT65 also. That could be interesting for portable mountain top activity.

OP, I have an email into the guy who has the pre-loaded cards for sale, I'll post what I learn!

There is a specific device out there that does this. NeuPsk modem IIRC.

Looks like an interesting device, and spendy.... $220 - $320...

Raspberry Pi is about $40, plus a MicroSD card.  I was thinking maybe a small display... something like this:



Thinking the whole thing could be done for less than $100 if the software would cooperate.

Hmm....

Fldigi runs fine on a pi.

Yes. I have with a signalink. It works fine.
