1. A computer-implemented method for downloading a radio configuration (R-CFG) file onto a software defined radio (SDR) device from a server comprising:
- forming a secure connection between the SDR device and the server;
sending a message that requests the R-CFG to be downloaded over the network from the server to the SDR device;
downloading the R-CFG from the server to the SDR; and
using a device manager on the SDR device to determine whether the R-CFG is compatible with the SDR device.

Abstract
A method for securely connecting a software defined radio (SDR) (110) to a server (140) through a network is presented. A request to download a radio configuration (R-CFG) file is sent from the SDR device to the server. A determination is made that the R-CFG file is configured to control a plurality of radio frequency parameters for the SDR device solely within levels permitted by a regulatory agency. The R-CFG is then downloaded to the SDR device.
