Rtl-sdr driver

Port of rtl-sdr's rtl_tcp
Allows you to use I/Q packet source in your Android applications.

All you need is to launch an intent in the form "iqsrc://rtl_tcp_arguments"
where you replace rtl_tcp_arguments with the arguments that you want your
application to run rtl_tcp with and the magic will be done behind the scenes.

This driver could be used by third party applications to implement Software
Defined Radio.

It does not require root for Android 3.1 and above.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
