HD Radio (NRSC5) Support #915

Open leoherzog opened 3 years ago

leoherzog commented 3 years ago

It would be lovely if we could decode North American HD Radio in GQRX. Reference implementation available at theori-io/NRSC5.

I second this idea, should just take a code pull/merge. Albert S. Brisco has a fork here that supports NRSC5: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gqrx-nrsc5-git https://github.com/Albert-S-Briscoe/gqrx/tree/nrsc5

I'd love to include HD Radio support, but there are still active patents covering HD Radio as well as the HDC codec. Perhaps we can look at this again once they've expired (around 2026, I believe).
