Title : Creating a Standalone WSPR Receiver with an RTL-SDR V3 and
Raspberry Pi 3

Description : Thank you to Zoltan for submitting his scripts for
installing the rtlsdr-wsprd WSPR decoder onto a Raspberry Pi, and
showing us how to configure it for an RTL-SDR V3 dongle running in
direct sampling mode. This set up allows users to create an extremely
low cost and permanent RX WSPR monitor. WSPR is an amateur […]

Title : New Custom Firmware for the PlutoSDR with Several Linux
SDR Programs Pre-Installed

Description : The PlutoSDR is an Analog Devices $99 - $149 RX/TX
capable SDR with 20 MHz of bandwidth and a 325 MHz to 3.8 GHz
frequency range that is software hackable to 56 Mhz of bandwidth
and a 70 MHz to 6000 MHz frequency. It has an on board Xilinx Zynq
Z-7010 FPGA, which has a built […]

SDR with 20 MHz of bandwidth and a 325 MHz to 3.8 GHz frequency
range that is software hackable to 56 Mhz of bandwidth and a 70 MHz
to 6000 MHz frequency. It has an on board Xilinx Zynq Z-7010 FPGA,
which has a built in dual core ARM Cortex-A9 processor as well. This
processor is capable of running Linux and Linux SDR software on
the PlutoSDR itself. PlutoSDR's can be purchased directly from 
Analog Devices , or via  Arrow ,  DigiKey  or  Mouser . 

Title : moRFeusQT Updates: Automatic Tracking Generator Plotting
with Airspy

Description : Outernet's moRFeus is a signal generator and
frequency mixer that can be controlled either by it's built in LCD
screen, or via software on a Windows or Linux PC. It can generate a
clean low phase noise tone anywhere between 85 to 5400 MHz. Because
it can be computer controlled it is possible to use moRFeus as a

mixer that can be controlled either by it's built in LCD screen, or
via software on a Windows or Linux PC. It can generate a clean low
phase noise tone anywhere between 85 to 5400 MHz. Because it can
be computer controlled it is  possible to use moRFeus as a tracking
generator  for characterizing filters and measuring antenna SWR. A
tracking generator is just a signal generator that can be set to
output at the same frequency that the measurement receiver is tuned
to. 

Title : Welle.io DAB/DAB+ Decoder Version 2 Released

Description : Welle.io is a Windows/Linux/MacOS/Android/Raspberry
Pi compatible DAB and DAB+ broadcast radio decoder which supports
RTL-SDR dongles, as well as the Airspy and any dongle supported by
SoapySDR. It is a touch screen friendly software which is excellent
for use on tablets, phones and perhaps on vehicle radio touch
screens. Thank you to Albrecht Lohofener, the author […]

Description : Over on YouTube SignalsEverywhere (aka Corrosive)
has uploaded a tutorial video showing how to use TempestSDR with
an Airspy SDR. Back in November 2017 we posted about how we were
able to get TempestSDR to run with an RTL-SDR, Airspy and SDRplay,

and showed some results. Since then several people have managed to
repeat our results, but many have also had trouble understanding
how to make TempestSDR work and what all the settings are for. 

Title : Feeding the dump1090 Aircraft Database with VDLM2DEC

Description : For ADS-B decoding, dump1090 is an RTL-SDR compatible
program that is commonly used. In order to provide information
about the aircraft being detected (e.g. icao24 hex address,
registration/tail number and sometimes the type of aircraft like
A380), dump1090 uses an offline database. Unfortunately this database
has not been maintained in a very long time, so […]

has not been maintained in a very long time, so it is now out of
date, and so cannot display information about many aircraft. 

Title : Creating an Inmarsat STC-C EGC Live Stream with an RTL-SDR,
Raspberry Pi and OpenWebRX

Description : Thanks to Zoltan (aka Veryokay on YouTube) for

Content :  Thanks to Zoltan (aka  Veryokay  on YouTube) for
submitting information about his Inmarsat STD-C EGC live stream
setup. His setup allows him to access the Inmarsat STD-C signal
from anywhere in the world over the internet, thanks to the use of
an OpenWebRX server. Inmarsat STD-C is a geostationary satellite
service that provides information for search and rescue, as well
as news, weather and incident reports for mariners. We have a
tutorial from a few years ago  which shows some example messages.
OpenWebRX  is an efficient SDR streaming server platform that allows
you to access RTL-SDR's and other SDRs from anywhere in the world
via an internet connection.

One promising concept that I came up with right away was that you could
manufacture personal air bags, then get a law passed requiring that they
be installed on congressmen to keep them from taking trips.  Let's say your
congressman was trying to travel to Paris to do a fact-finding study on how the
French government handles diseases transmitted by sherbet.  Just when he got to
the plane, his mandatory air bag, strapped around his waist, would inflate --
FWWAAAAAAPPPP -- thus rendering him too large to fit through the plane door.
It could also be rigged to inflate whenever the congressman proposed a law.
("Mr.  Speaker, people ask me, why should October be designated as Cuticle
Inspection Month?  And I answer that FWWAAAAAAPPPP.") This would save millions
of dollars, so I have no doubt that the public would violently support a
law requiring airbags on congressmen.  The problem is that your potential
market is very small: there are only around 500 members of Congress, and
some of them, such as House Speaker "Tip" O'Neil, are already too large to
fit on normal aircraft.
