X1 SDR Shortwave Receiver
Discover shortwave listening and signal exploration with the X1. This desktop software-defined receiver combines multiple reception modes, built-in signal decoding, and a color spectrum and waterfall display for radio hobbyists and curious listeners.
Multi-Mode Shortwave Reception
The X1 offers a supplier-listed reception range of 3.5–30 MHz and supports LSB, USB, CW-L, CW-U, AM and FM modes. Explore single-sideband voice signals, Morse code and broadcasts within the supported frequency range. FM mode applies within the receiver’s supported range. Reception of the 88–108 MHz FM broadcast band is not specified.
Spectrum and Waterfall Display
The color display combines a spectrum trace with a waterfall view to help you observe signal activity and changes over time. The listed 30 kHz spectrum view shows a portion of the band around the selected frequency.
Built-In CW and FT8 Decoding
Explore Morse code reception with built-in CW decoding, or use standalone FT8 decoding to view supported digital signals directly on the receiver. Decoding results depend on signal strength, interference, tuning and settings. FT8 operation also requires accurate time synchronization.
Noise and Interference Controls
Noise reduction, a noise blanker and a notch filter provide options for adjusting your listening experience when unwanted noise or interference is present. Results vary with reception conditions and settings.
Physical Volume and Tuning Controls
A dedicated volume control and large tuning dial provide hands-on operation. The illuminated display presents frequency, mode and signal information while you explore.
Shortwave Listening and Signal Exploration
Explore supported shortwave broadcasts, amateur radio signals and digital modes. Reception depends on antenna selection, placement, signal conditions and local interference.
Desktop Listening Setup
The X1 uses a BNC antenna connector for connection to a suitable external antenna. The power connector is listed as 5.5 × 2.1 mm DC. Confirm the required voltage, current and polarity before connecting a power supply. Antenna and power supply are not included.
