ShackDeck for Windows 10 and 11
An installer for Windows: the same program as on the Mac, with the receivers, decoders, satellites and the logbook. The build is not signed yet, so SmartScreen asks once; the download page says what to click.
The ShackDeck installer for Windows is on the download page: pick Windows and the button and three short steps appear. The regular build fits every computer with an Intel or AMD processor; the rare laptops with an ARM processor (Snapdragon) get a separate ARM64 build, linked under the button.
Inside it is all the same as on the Mac: public receivers worldwide with a waterfall, the FT8, FT4, WSPR, RTTY, PSK31, SSTV, CW and weather fax decoders, APRS and satellites with Doppler, the station catalogue, the logbook with ADIF. A window recording with the receiver's sound is saved as MP4. The installer adds WebView2 itself when the system lacks it.
The build is not signed with a certificate yet, so SmartScreen shows a warning on the first start: More info → Run anyway. New Windows 11 computers may have Smart App Control on, which blocks unsigned programs altogether; it can be switched off in Windows Security → App & browser control. Code signing comes later.
