![]() This page is a guide aimed at helping anyone set up a cheap radio scanner based on the RTL-SDR software defined radio as fast as possible on a Windows system. SDR# Running in a Windows Virtual Machine Once Windows 7 is installed on the Virtual Machine, setting up software like SDR# is as simple as going through our quickstart guide. He uses Oracle VirtualBox as the virtualization software. In his setup he runs Fedora 26 as the base Linux OS (although other Linux versions should also work), and Windows 7 in the Virtual Machine. Only when using Linux as the base OS was his Windows VM stable. Originally he tried running a Windows VM from within Windows, but he experienced crashes. Any damage from viruses is localized to the virtual machine only.ĭuring his research John found many people who have been running Linux from within a virtual machine running on Windows, but not the reverse. Using a fixed image then also avoids problems with OS updates breaking things, as updates can be safely turned off on the virtual machine. ![]() It's then possible to put the image on a memory stick and take your entire working software setup with you and run it on another PC. Thanks to John Jackson of JRMagnetics for writing in and letting us know about his post on installing SDR# onto a Windows Virtual Machine (VM) running on Fedora Linux.Īs John notes, running SDR software from within a virtual machine essentially freezes a working version of your setup in a virtual image.
