Scan conventional systems with SDR

[ChrisABQ]

I've been searching but have not been able to find any answers.

Is there a program or app that allows me to scan conventional VHF or UHF frequencies (non trunked), automatically (like a scanner) and stop on a live broadcast and then continue scanning when channels are not active?

I have UT already but it is not made for conventional analog frequency scanning.

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

You can do it with rtl_fm but it is devoid of any GUI and PL.

SDR# + the Frequency Manager Suite offers that functionality, not that difficult to get it working pretty well, only real limitation is the time involved in entering the frequencies/etc. The Frequency Manager + Scanner aspect is what you'd be interested in that's part of that package and it works very well for conventional frequency scanning.

The author of that app has been busy it seems, he's ported the project to SDRuno (SDRplay's native SDR application) as well as SDR-Console aka SDR-Radio but those applications apparently do not support the real-time scanning aspect so, it's SDR# to go.
