The iSDR platform — a complete SDR transceiver stack for Android — plus the open components it stands on:
- iSDR — the transceiver app: RX/TX, multi-mode demodulation, DSP audio chain, digital modes, logging, and remote access.
- iSDR Drivers (GPL) — USB device drivers for RTL-SDR, HackRF, HL2, and G2-class hardware, ported to Android.
- iSDR Station — the secure remote-access connector (self-managed WireGuard).
- isdr-proto (MIT) — the wire-contract library shared across the apps.
Open components are released under their own OSI licenses (GPL for the drivers, MIT for the protocol library). The NROLABS name, logo, and the proprietary iSDR application are not covered by those licenses and remain the property of the trademark owner.
