SimTX Wiki
SimTX is a shared radio simulation. Set up a virtual transmitter, send audio, and listen with a receiver. No physical radio or antenna is needed. Distance, antennas, and radio conditions affect what listeners hear.
Start here: download SimTX and make your first transmission
The illustrated guide covers installation, account sign-in, server selection, a working example, listening, and saving your settings.
Learn in order
- Download and transmit: follow one complete example from an empty desktop to your first TX session.
- Find your way around: identify the controls and understand the meters.
- Choose what to send: play a file, use a microphone, or send a stream.
- Change frequency and coverage: choose and adjust an antenna, then learn why reception changes.
- Add features: install modes, audio processors, tools, and themes without writing code.
Find a specific answer
- Nothing happens or no sound? Use Troubleshooting.
- Which radio mode should I choose? See Modulation Modes.
- How do I save or share my station setup? See Station Configuration and Extension catalog.
- What do SWR, bandwidth, and IQ mean? See Radio terms.
- Looking for formulas or an API? Open the complete documentation index, including antenna calculations and every Lua API reference.
Community and other ways to use SimTX
- Community radio stations: stations described by their operators.
- SDR Console, digital television reception, digital television transmission, and DRM transmission: additional community guides.
- Download the transmitter · SimTX website · SimTX Discord
