rx2fits

This package is a software-defined receiver for rx888mk2 receivers for spectroscopy. The central program, spec, acquires samples from a receiver in its direct-sampling mode, spectrally analyzes them, and saves the spectra to two-axis FITS files. The codes run on linux on .Net and are written mostly in Visual Basic. There is a file viewer written in python. Results of early field testing can be found at this link. There is an installation script, install, having subcommands for performing a few tasks. There is also a script, rx2fits, that performs operations related to usage of the codes, including starting, stopping, restarting, and viewing status of spec.

See the PDF document in the doc/installation directory for further information.
