Reuter RSR200B

First Impressions
The RSR200 is a high performance black box receiver (“SDR”) for direct digitization of RF signals up to above 250 MHz and feeding SDR programs on PCs with data rates up to 90 MS/s (16 bit I/Q, lower rates with 24 bit resolution). Source https://www.reuter-elektronik.com/html/rsr200.html.
Above is an image of SDR Console using a RSR200B at 15 MHz bandwidth, antenna is an 8 element Yagi from Innov Antennas. I have started with the USB interface in single channel mode. The API is well documented, it took less than three days to get this SDR integrated into SDR Console.
Using 16-bit ADCs instead of tuner chips is an advantage - apart from antenna selection, the only adjustment you may use is the gain control which ranges from -28dB to +7dB.
Price: € 1,090.00 see Technical Documentation.
When TCP and dual channel mode is supported I'll update this post, in the meantime here's a test report from Fenu-Radio .
SDR Television v1.1.1 June 9th, 2026: Fixes a fatal bug in the Settings, Camera page. Downloads are at the bottom of this page.
Version 1.6.2 This release fixes two bugs in the new DX Spot feature. The spot age logic incorrectly affected spot display. When the map was zoomed, station markers off the map would be displayed at the top left (0, 0). Downloads are on the World Map page . Version 1.6.1 This release fixes two fatal bugs in the new DX Spot feature. When the graphics engine is restarted, resources are correctly released. Fixed a resource leak when processing the MoseMove logic. Downloads are on the World Map page . Version 1.6 This release adds the display of DX Spots. Display spots are submitted to PSK Reporter which in turn are relayed by a MQTT Broker running on a high performance Akamia node. Spot Format Each spot consists of these fields: Sequence Frequency Band Mode Signal level Time stamp Sending station call, square, country Receiving station call, square, country Note: The country is the ADIF country. Spots are displayed as they arrive, currently no on-demand database. Bandwidth To reduce bandwidth from the broker, filtering is required for 80m up to and including 15m. Filtering requires at least one field below to be set in a definition: Receiver callsign, square or country. Sender callsign, square or country. Without filtering the bandwith from the broker could be excessive. For LF and VHF+ no filtering is required due to the lower number of spots sent on these bands. In a later version the bandwidth restriction may be reduced.

As with any software project, there's always room for improvements and new features, but for now here's a stable solution which works well with the QO-100 satellite. Many thanks to Sigi and the DATV test team. Downloads are at the bottom of this page.
