OpenWebRX+ Digital Modes
OpenWebRX+ natively supports a very large array of digital modes. This makes it ideal for learning about different digital communications technologies and what's on the bands.
Digital Modes Drop-down List
The digital modes drop-down list appears when clicking the dropdown menu box.
Clicking the "DIG" button will toggle digital modes on or off.
Note: not all of these are actually available due to antenna and receiver limitations.
