I just wanted to reply here with "You are my hero" . But someone beat me to it. I must subscribe now. This also fires up my drive to get more into Radio's and radio astronomy. It so fun to be able to grab all that stuff from the air that most people are unaware of. I got my first handheld a while ago, and people were like "WOW amaze" when There was a really clear night in Budapest, Hungary with the ISS 70deg. overhead, and I was picking up Russian com while pointing to the illuminated station. ( -- yes unlicensed (but I don't TX) ). And now planning to get a license because more bands for the win, and licensed radio operators actually get much love from government and rescue services. There's also lots of stuff that you can do with a cheap DVB-T tuner and simple (DIY) aerial.
