Winradio wr-G303E/pd with professional demod option
The WiNRADiO WR-G303e is a software-defined PC-based HF receiver (9 kHz to 30 MHz).
The PC-based receiver is USB-controlled and compatible with modern desktop and laptop computers with USB interface. An optional serial interface is also available.
A Software Defined Radio (SDR) is such where demodulation and the last IF (intermediate frequency) processing are done entirely in software. Usually this means using a DSP, but in the case of the G303e, this processing is done on a PC. Most modern PCs are now faster and more powerful than many DSPs were only a few years ago. So, if you own a PC, the chances are that you already own an important part of a software defined radio receiver!
Accurate signal strength indicator
This radio includes the Professional Demodulator Option adding:
Continuously variable IF bandwidth 1Hz - 15kHz
User adjustable filter selectivity
Built-in test and measurement instrumentation

In the 25th Edition (2009) of Passport to World Band Radio the WiNRADiO was rated 4 1/4 stars out of 5 stars. The final verdict was:
"For the money the G303 is hard to beat, especially in the preferred Professional Demodulator version. It can also be configured for reception of DRM digital broadcast signals and is a pleasure to operate.
The G303 provides laboratory-quality spectrum displays and signal-strength indication. These spectrum-data functions are impressive, regardless of price or type of receiver, and that's just the beginning of things well done."
