dogparkSDR v1.14 available for download
Dog Park Software has released Version 1.14 of dogparkSDR. dogparkSDR is the first Native Mac client for the Flex Radio Systems Signature series SDR Radios
dogparkSDR is not a Windows port. It’s a native Mac application, written from the ground up to take advantage of macOS unique capabilities and interact as you would expect a Mac user interface to operate. It was designed to be a window into your Flex 6000 series radio and takes care of setting and displaying radio parameters, displaying the Panadapter and Waterfall as well as routing the radio audio in and out of the Mac.
DXCluster spots from MacLoggerDX , dogparkSDR Memories are displayed in the panadapter and can be clicked for quick tuning and lookup. The FlexControl is supported as is Local and Remote (Mac) Audio, Tracking Notch Filters (TNF),DL3LSM’s xDAX, CWX with macros, local sidetone, radio Memories and SmartLink remote access.
What’s new in version 1.14:
- Requires OS X 10.9+.
- macOS 10.14 (Mojave) compatible.
- Notarized by Apple for Gatekeeper.
- Added new FM Tone freqs from MacDoppler v2.30.
- RF Gain popup fixed.
Version 1.14 of dogparkSDR can be downloaded here and is a free update for all Version 1 customers.
dogparkSDR requires OS X 10.9+ and an Intel 64-bit processor. While a free demo is available, it is time limited to 20 minutes per session. A full Single User License is available for $95 from the Dog Park Software website

I need the pan adapter and waterfall features in dogparkSDR, but I don’t have a FLEX 6000 series radio. What I have is a crystal-controlled Soft Rock Lite II at the 15 MHz first IF of my satellite rig, feeding its I & Q outputs into a stereo sound card (still to be bought…) and thus to the Mac. I have a 9-year-old PowerPC MacBook (probably 32-bit, yeah?) running OS 10.13.6 and already hosting MacDoppler. With 8 GB of RAM, and a 2.2 GB CPU. The only TX control to the satellite rig (a Yaesu FT-736R) is that of its carrier frequency, to compensate for the satellite’s Doppler shift.
So near, and yet so far…
