I haven't yet . Do you consider it better than the 4.1 version ?

Well the following improvements are listed here ::

But yes, I've only had it for about a day now, but really like it, especially the waterfall which has been much improved along with the increased screen size. The one thing I'm having trouble getting used to is the averaging of the spectral screen. Where before I could slow it down to a slow crawl, it now can only be slowed to a fast pace. I hope future updates address this, but it by no means is a show stopper for me.

Keep in mind, I do not and have not used this software to it's limits or tested it from A to Z (I'm more of a casual tuner & listener at best). At this point I haven't even tried recordings and playback yet. Others could probably comment further on this (hopefully).

I had to purchase it for 59 Euros but it was worth it!  The improved display is great!  I FINALLY got all of my SDRs working on my Windows 10 OS.  I never had a problem with my Excalibur but my RadioJet 1305 Plus (not an SDR / mainly for utility DX'ing) and my Perseus would not work. I had to use Zadig.exe to load the drivers.
