Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Viruses in some SDR software?
Looks like I got cubic sdr executable cubicsdr_v0_2_6a_win64 from https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/releases/tag/0.2.4.
-
Looking for a good AM/FM Radio sollution
There is loads of software that will work such as SDR++, GQRX, CubicSDR, and SDRangel just to name a few. For HD radio reception, there is nrsc5. Nrsc5 only works with an rtl-sdr, so you will need one if you want to receive HD radio.
-
SDR clients compatible with m1 macs?
CubicSDR and GQRX both work on my M1 Mac. I installed GQRX using homebrew, CubicSDR was downloaded from Github (https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/releases/tag/0.2.5). Both are the x86_64 versions and run under the emulation layer provided by Mac OS.

What OS has the best software for RTL-SDR? I currently use gqrx but feel its limited.

Wxwidgets 3.1.5 Released
Be aware that 3.1.5 enables EGL by default and, if your application uses GLX, you're going to have problems: https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/issues/886

- Nrsc5: Receive NRSC-5 digital radio stations using an RTL-SDR dongle
-
Listen to HD radio with a $30 RTL SDR dongle
That decision was made by the original author (Andrew Wesie), but I think it makes sense because nrsc5 only needs a tiny fraction of the functionality that GNU Radio provides. Implementing the functionality directly in nrsc5 avoids the need for a large and complex dependency.
One downside is that we don't get the broad hardware support that GNU Radio provides, but maybe we'll someday take another crack at integrating SoapySDR. (See https://github.com/theori-io/nrsc5/pull/131 for an earlier experiment with that.)

Why does the spectrum analyzer have a square wave by 102.25 MHz, I see the often in FM broadcasting.
That's HD radio, the sidebands are digital audio. It can be decoded with nrsc5 and an rtl-sdr.
-
What is the divergence point of streaming AAC overtaking OTA FM audio quality ?
An article called "Decoding and Listening to HD Radio (NRSC-5) with an RTL-SDR" links to a security researcher's write-up called "Receiving NRSC-5" about how they wrote the software to do it. That links to the actual nrsc5 software on GitHub.

Can I be tuned in to multiple FM stations at once?
In theory could https://github.com/theori-io/nrsc5 be listening to all hd radio at once?
-
Thousands of Mazdas in the Seattle area are stuck on a single FM radio station
HD Radio is closed and proprietary, but there is at least one FOSS receiver out there: https://github.com/theori-io/nrsc5
-
What are these bands to the left/right of the two main CBC signals? Not RDS, but appears to be data of some sort? The FM station at 90.7 and 91.5 are both CBC (French & English broadcasts).
NRSC5 is a decoder that I use. If you are on windows there are a couple of extra steps you have to take compile it, but it works well! They have a newer one with a GUI that can also display album art.
