  1. My take over the last 24 hours using an #AirSpy DiscoveryHF+ receiver and a YouLoop magnetic loop antenna mounted to the wall of my apartment.

    Mostly 20, 10, and 40 meters.

  2. Satcom Piracy

    Kind of extreme DXing... (Assumed) Bolshevik music is being rebroadcast via one of the US Milsats on 253.860 MHz NFM. The transmission could be being uplinked from almost anywhere in the satellite's footprint.

    The fun part? I'm hearing it using an Airspy HF+ Discovery and a standard Airspy Youloop, with no amplification!

  3. My AirSPY HF+ installation is working again under OpenWebRX+ v1.2.61 after I followed the instructions at groups.io/g/openwebrx/topic/10 to change /etc/udev/rules.d/52-airspyhf.rules

    The upstream issue is github.com/airspy/airspyhf/iss and open for quite a long time, udev rules appear to be hard to get right portably.

    now some hashtags in the hope I can find this again if I need to find it

  4. SatDump
    A generic satellite data processing software.

    Decode various satellites with SatDump using your Android device and compatible SDR. Receive #NOAA APT & #DSB, #LRPT, #HRPT, and other satellites, including geostationary ones like #GOES, GK-2A, on-the-go.
    A good use case is receiving 137Mhz weather satellites conveniently.

    Supported SDRs : #RTL-SDR, #Airspy, Airspy HF, #MiriSDR, LimeSDR Mini

  5. Listening to baseball on the radio. #WLW 700 kHz via an #Airspy HF+ and a #YouLoop antenna. Transmitter is about 200 miles direct from here, nearly due south along I-75.

    There is some noise under the signal but it's very copyable.

    Cubs leading the Reds 14-6 bottom of the 7th inning.

    Here is a snapshot from #GQRX. I have stations labelled with the baseball team to listen to.

  6. I get a #telegram bot alert for each #radiosonde launch my station picks up.
    (I tap into the chasemap #json with #nodered )
    It still blows my mind how well the @vk5qi #auto_rx works with the #airspy R2, good #antenna and #lna

  7. In times of turmoil, upset, and uncertain futures, at least we have #WWV. For now, at least.

  12. @kevindanks I must admit I enjoy listening as much as transmitting, maybe more. I have a couple of Raspberry Pis in the loft for satellite reception and another connected to an #Airspy HF+ Discovery and R2, which I can access from anywhere. I also love my little #Belka!

  13. @Chicory

    ooh, tell me more about this Steam Deck based mobile rig!

    I took some notes on what I thought might be the useful intersection between the Steam Deck and radio, but I don't have one (yet?) and I'm still collecting ideas.

    vielmetti.typepad.com/logbook/

    that includes notes from people who have used the deck for direction finding with #KrakenSDR and for listening with an #Airspy SDR.

  14. Looking into finding a decoder for #FT8 and #JT65 on my Mac. As an extra special challenge, I'd like to use remote #KiwiSDR receivers as inputs to the decoder as well as my local #airspy SDR receiver.

    So far the things that look promising:

    #Digiskimmer at github.com/lazywalker/DigiSkim - "FT8/FT4/WSPR Skimmer base on WSJT/KiwiSDR"

    #weakmon at github.com/rtmrtmrtmrtm/weakmo - "Sound-card software for FT8, JT65A, and WSPR."

    Any recommendations?
