Overview
WiNRADiO G31DDC/G33DDC
WiNRADiO G39DDC
- The WiNRADiO WR‑G39DDCe EXCELSIOR is a high‑performance, software‑defined HF/VHF/UHF/SHF receiver covering 9 kHz to 3500 MHz. It provides two independent 4 MHz channels for simultaneous recording and digital signal processing, complemented by a 16 MHz real‑time spectrum analyzer for wide‑area visibility across the monitored spectrum.
- Thanks to its flexible SDR architecture, the WR‑G39DDCe delivers excellent dynamic range, high sensitivity, fast scanning speed, and precise frequency performance. This combination enables the receiver to serve multiple roles: a robust monitoring receiver, a high‑speed search receiver, and a capable measurement instrument—offering features and capabilities rarely found even in higher‑priced systems.
WiNRADiO G65DDC & G69DDC
The receiver connects to any Windows‑compatible PC via USB 3.0 (full bandwidth) or via a 1 Gb Ethernet LAN port with PoE support (IEEE 802.3at, up to 16 MHz bandwidth). For maximum bandwidth, USB 3.0 is recommended for short distances of up to 3 m.
Thanks to its integrated Ethernet interface, the G69DDCe also supports semi‑remote operation using long Ethernet cables of up to 100 m.
WiNRADiO WR‑G69DDC
The WiNRADiO WR‑G69DDC is a high‑performance, software‑defined wideband receiver covering HF, VHF, UHF and SHF, with an ultra‑fast search speed of 3 GHz/s. It provides two independent, mutually exclusive RF inputs:
- 8 kHz to 80 MHz
- 43 MHz to 8 GHz
A real‑time spectrum analyzer with 80 MHz / 34 MHz span is included, and an instantaneous 32 MHz DDC bandwidth is available for recording, demodulation, and advanced digital signal processing across the entire tuning range.
The full 32 MHz digitally down‑converted bandwidth can be captured and demodulated, making the receiver ideal for frequency‑hopping signal analysis. Three parallel demodulators support simultaneous reception and decoding of signals anywhere within the active band.
The WR‑G69DDCe additionally provides optional external reference frequency inputs/outputs and a 1 PPS input. It also offers stereo analog audio output with a wide 10 Hz–150 kHz bandwidth. A dedicated data port expands integration options, including GPIO, high‑speed data output (HSP), and a standard RS‑232 interface.
WiNRADiO WR‑G65DDC
The WiNRADiO WR‑G65DDC is a high‑performance, direct‑sampling, software‑defined wideband receiver covering two independent frequency ranges: 1 kHz to 88 MHz and 118 MHz to 190 MHz. It provides two mutually exclusive RF inputs, one dedicated to each range.
A real‑time 88 MHz‑wide spectrum analyzer (72 MHz in the VHF band) is integrated, offering excellent visibility across the monitored spectrum. The receiver also delivers up to 64 MHz instantaneous bandwidth for recording, demodulation, and advanced digital signal processing.
These features make the WR‑G65DDC a powerful solution for high‑resolution monitoring, wideband analysis, and demanding COMINT applications.
