    I use an RSPdx in my shack and it’s one of my all time favorite pieces of hardware.

  Now you can use one of your unused Raspberry Pi:s (we have all got them) to cobble together an ADSB unit that may be critical in recording important low-height ADSB flight data points in your immediate area in case of accidents. And also get free premium accounts on sites like flightradar24 etc. https://hub.balena.io/apps/1829313/balena-ads-b https://hub.balena.io/apps/1829313/balena-ads-b

  Waste of money. I suggest getting an SDR that can rx AND tx. I recommend the Ettus USRP

    You need a mortgage to buy most of their SDRs. Their cheapest IIRC is a B210 which is about $2,500.
