Title : QIRX SDR Now Shows Received DAB Transmitters on A Map

Content :  QIRX SDR is an RTL-SDR compatible program that focuses
on DAB+ decoding and listening. In a recent update programmer Clem
notes that the  newest feature is a map powered by OpenStreetMap that
can display a the location of received DAB stations . He writes 

Title : SDRPlay Hamvention Demo of SDRUno and RSPDuo Diversity
Features

Content :  At this years Hamvention Chris Howard from  ICQ Amateur
interviewed Andy at the SDRplay booth. In the interview they discuss
various new features and improvements to SDRuno, the official
software for SDRplay devices. 

Title : Using a HackRF to Reverse Engineer and Control Restaurant
Pagers

Content :  Several years ago back in 2013 and 2014 we uploaded two
posts showing how it was possible to use an SDR to listen in to
restaurant pagers and  collect data from them , and also to  spoof
their signal and activate them on demand . If you were unaware,
restaurant pagers (aka burger pagers), are small RF controlled
discs that some restaurants hand out to customers who are waiting
for food. When the food is ready, the pager is remotely activated
by the staff, and then flashes and buzzes, letting the customer
know that their order can be picked up. 

Title : Airspy HF+ Discovery Now Available for Preorder + Brief
Initial Review

Content :  The Airspy team have recently announced the  release
of their new "Airspy HF+ Discovery" . The Discovery is a smaller,
lighter and improved version of the Airspy HF+. The frequency
range, bandwidth and bit depth and specs all remain the same,
but there are some improvements to the dynamic range due to the
addition of preselectors. The original Airspy HF+ was released
back in mid-2017 and it still is in our opinion one of the best
low cost HF DX SDRs because of its very high dynamic range design,
so strong interfering signals are not much of a problem. We have a
previous review of the Airspy HF+ available here  were we compare
it against a number of other HF SDRs.

Title : Short Article Explaining DSP Basics Without Math

Content :  If the math behind software defined radio and digital
signal processing (DSP) concepts does your head in, the RSGB has a
short document that explains core DSP concepts without any math. If
you're just looking for an overview of what terms like sampling,
nyquist, aliasing, number of bits, undersampling, digital filters
and fast fourier transform mean, then this short article is a great
start. 

Title : A More In-depth Look at the Tunisian RTL-SDR Espionage Story

Content :  The Africa Report, an online newspaper specializing in
African stories  recently ran a story titled "A Tunisian spy story"
. The story discusses the circumstances behind the mysterious arrest
of a UN expert in Tunisian, supposedly for having used an RTL-SDR
dongle as part of his research into violations of the UN arms
embargo on Libya. See our  previous post  for the original details. 

Title : SignalsEverywhere: P25 Trunking with Just One RTL-SDR and
DSDPlus Fastlane

Content :  Over on YouTube Corrosive from the  SignalsEverywhere
channel has uploaded a new video showing us how to set up P25
trunking and decoding with DSDPlus Fastlane and only a single
RTL-SDR. 

Title : Osmocom Now Releasing Weekly Windows Binaries for RTL-SDR
and Osmo-FL2K

Content :  Osmocom is the open source team behind the RTL-SDR driver
project and the Osmo-FL2K discovery. In a recent  announcement they
have noted that they are now publishing weekly binary builds for
the RTL-SDR and Osmo-FL2K projects . This means that Windows users
are now able to test the latest driver updates without having to
compile them manually. Laforge writes:

From the Pro 350 Pocket Service Guide, p. 49, Step 5 of the instructions on
removing an I/O board from the card cage, comes a new experience in sound:

	5.  Turn the handle to the right 90 degrees.  The pin-spreading
	    sound is normal for this type of connector.
