- tomswartz07 9y agoI've been using Software Defined Radios for the better part of 5 years now and it's amazing the types of things you can receive with them. The article here discusses a cheap (but slightly modified) SDR, but if you step up ever-so-slightly in price to something like an AirSpy Mini, the difference in signal quality is astonishing.
- yosyp 9y agoDo you have any pointers/references for getting started with Software Defined Radios? i.e. the state of the art software, hardware, and common hobbyist applications? Any open source communities?
- tomswartz07 9y agoSurely. https://www.rtl-sdr.com/ https://www.rtl-sdr.com/ is a great site for updates on new hardware and software. Most commonly, I use my SDR for: - Listening to ham (amateur) bands - Receiving NOAA/Meteor satellite images - Airplane tracking There are quite a few other use cases, which I've outlined in several talks that I've presented at conferences over the years; https://github.com/tomswartz07/CPOSC2017/blob/master/SoftwareDefinedRadio.pdf https://github.com/tomswartz07/CPOSC2017/blob/master/Softwar...
- tomswartz07 9y agoAdditionally, to further point out, there's a giant, vibrant open source community around the SDR software. SoapySDR/Pothos do great work, as well as the fine guy behind GQRX, the open-source SDR gui.
