Title : Coole-Radar: A Retro Terminal Based Radar Display for ADS-B
Aircraft Data

Content :  John Wiseman has been working on a cool old-school retro
styled aircraft ADS-B radar that runs entirely within a terminal
window. So no GUI desktop should be required. The project, called
"coole-radar", is available as open source code on GitHub . 

Title : A Homebrew All-In-One RTL-SDR with Screen and Control Knobs
Running on a Mini PC

Content :  Over on YouTube user Pablo Sala (KI7OJL) has uploaded
a video that shows a neat all-in-one receiver build based on an
RTL-SDR. Pablo's build runs on a  Pipo x8 Mini PC  which is a
US$110 PC/tablet that includes a build in LCD touch screen. The
build also adds several Arduino powered control knobs for tuning,
mode and bank selection, squelch and volume to the base. The knobs
directly interface with HDSDR, his chosen software. 

Title : DEF CON 27 SDR Talks: Antennas for Surveillance, Ford Keyfob

Title : New Magazine Reviews of the Airspy HF+ Discovery

Content :  Recently three new reviews of the Airspy HF+ Discovery
have come out in various radio  enthusiast magazines from around
the world. All three reviews have been released for free in PDF
form over on the  Airspy reviews page . Unsurprisingly each review
praises the HF+ Discovery as it's clearly a great radio. 

Title : The SWLing Post Reviews the SDRplay RSPdx

Content :  Thomas from the SWLing blog has been playing around
with the recently announced  SDRplay RSPdx and has come out with a
comprehensive review of the unit . In the review he also provides
some comparison videos on real signals between the RSPdx and other
SDRs like the WinRadio Excalibur, and Airspy HF+ Discovery. 

Title : Networked Radio Direction Finding with KerberosSDR and
RDFMapper

Content :  We've just  uploaded a short Python script to GitHub
that allows radio direction bearings from a KerberosSDR to be used
with the  RDF Mapper software created by Jonathan Musther . RDF
Mapper is a (~US$25) program that was initially written for the
RDF42 , a kit based doppler direction finding system. RDFMapper
runs on Windows/MacOS and Linux. 

Title : Preview: GNU Radio 3.8 Running on an Un-Rooted Android
Smartphone

Content :  Over on Twitter and YouTube Bastian Bloessl ( @bastibl )
have been posting teaser shots and videos of GNU Radio 3.8 running
on an un-rooted Android device. Unfortunately there doesn't yet
seem to be any word yet on how he's been able to do this, but we
guess  that the details will all be released in due time, possibly
on  his blog . 

Title : Comparing Four Wideband Magnetic Loop Antennas on HF with
an SDRplay RSPduo

Content :  Over on YouTube the  Scanner and Sdr Radio  channel
has uploaded a video comparing four different brands of HF wideband
loop antennas using an SDRplay RSPduo. The loops he tested include
the cheap Chinese  MLA-30  (~$40), the  Cross Country Wireless
(CCW) loop ($70), Bonito ML200 (~$442) and the Wellbrook 1530LN
(~$305).

A fool-proof method for sculpting an elephant: first, get a huge block of
marble; then you chip away everything that doesn't look like an elephant.
