Rational Waves – Low-Cost Spectrum Analyzer Software

Rational Waves software turns data collected from a variety of low-cost spectrum analyzers into highly graphical charts and displays, enabling users to more readily visualize the RF environment, monitor RF signals, troubleshoot RF issues, and detect sources of RF interference. RF analyzers currently supported include RF Explorer, RTLSDR, ADALM-Pluto, Signal Hound and HackRF.

Rational Waves builds on our experience and success with Touchstone, Clear Waves and WifiSurveyor. Troubleshooting and solving wireless issues is not rocket science, but it does require good observation and detective skills. Rational Waves is simple to use — yet, as a diagnostic tool, it provides the necessary information to help you make decisions and solve problems.

Rational Waves was developed by Nuts About Nets — developers of wireless diagnostic tools. It is available online via a digital download and costs only $79 USD.
