sdrconnect-server-docker

A Dockerized build and runtime environment for SDRConnect from SDRPlay.

This setup runs efficiently even on compact ARM64 single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi, ensuring broader accessibility and ease of use for common DIY and SDR projects. Thanks to Docker-based isolation, it is also portable and can be deployed on a broad range of systems, including desktops and standard Linux servers.

👉 Notes

• Port 50000 must be open and mapped for clients to connect.
• Docker build skips the interactive menu in the SDRconnect*.run file which also displays the licence terms of using that software. Please install the software once manually to read the licence as the build script auto-accepts it on your behalf.
