ALL OUR GSOCs ARE SHIPPED WITH THE LATEST OFFICIAL RELEASE FIRMWARE INSTALLED.
PLEASE NOTE: When using a G90 with the GSOC, firmware version V1.74 or higher is required.
The Xiegu GSOC is a standalone colour touchscreen panadapter/controller designed for external control of Xiegu G90 transceiver. As a software-defined (SDR) product, modifications and new features can be added via firmware updates to aid future-proofing and interoperability with new Xiegu devices.
The GSOC MUST be used in conjunction with a Xiegu G90 or X5105 - it cannot operate as a standalone unit.
The unit consists of a baseband processing unit and an SDR receiving unit capable of receiving and processing IF- and IQ signals and displaying frequency spectrum-, waterfall- and other information. The GSOC incorporates a 24-bit ADC processor, and connectivity options include Bluetooth and a micro-SD slot.
