Al al at eartoearoak.comHi ben, Thanks, glad you like the scanner although I realise it's a bit of a pain to install all the dependencies under Windows or OS X. I intended the software to be used to find interesting signals, which you could then analyse in other software, never really as a spectrum analyser (the thought of implementing all the maths gives me a headache!). Once I've found something I often use sdrsharp to investigate it and if I'm still interested I move onto GNU Radio. I would really recommend you try GNU Radio, although you may find it has a steep learning curve. For example you could use VirtualBox (virtualbox.org) to run an Ubuntu machine on your desktop (compiling under Windows can be tricky) . There's plenty of information on both virtual machines and GNU Radio installation around.

A poor man's wideband spectrum analyser.
