Could you build this?
Partial While the web dashboard and Ollama wrapper are vibe-codeable, real-time digital signal processing (DSP) for AM/FM/SSB demodulation and high-throughput raw I/Q streaming from rtl_tcp requires specialized SDR knowledge.
What it would actually take: The architecture pairs an rtl_tcp backend with a high-throughput DSP layer (using GNU Radio, liquid-dsp, or WebAssembly-compiled C DSP routines) streaming WebSockets or WebRTC audio/waterfall data to a canvas front end. The hard part is managing real-time low-latency I/Q sampling, FFT computation, and digital filtering without dropping packets.
