Getting into gnu radio, wanting to put my HackRF to use. Want to actually get a decent understanding of RF theory.
Messing around with GPS signals, going to try to work out autocorrelation and things.

Airframes Community forum, user 'thebaldgeek' reviews the Discovery Dish https://community.airframes.io/t/discovery-dish-rtlsdr-blog-l-band-acars/181 #SDR
Airframes Community · Discovery Dish RTLSDR-Blog L-Band ACARSQuick ‘mini review’ of the Discovery Dish with L-Band ACARS feed. You can see the Crowdsupply campaign here. Myself and a few others backed it from day zero (or close to it). Took a few more months than expected for it to ship, but turns out, it was worth the wait. Make sure you get the right feed for your end goal. There are two L-Bandish mounts, so take your time and think about what you want to cover. The dish and the feed come really well boxed. On first unboxing its very impressi...

[New Blog Post] Measuring the Gain Pattern of a Yagi-Uda Antenna with an RTL-SDR #ham #sdr https://www.philipzucker.com/yagi_uda/
Hey There Buddo! · Measuring the Gain Pattern of a Yagi-Uda Antenna with an RTLSDRWe were most into amateur radio / sdr in 2015-ish. We’ve been getting back intrigued by it. The physical realm!
My school meeting was more adversarial than I'd anticipated, so I'm pulling a Scarlett & thinking about that... tomorrow.
Time for a productive distraction.
Anyone with specific resources for:
Building a wood/gravel foundation for a modular shed;
Identifying & tracking local train traffic via SDR (EOT devices maybe?);
Pretty, toxic perennials to add to my ̶p̶o̶i̶s̶o̶n̶ herbal remedy garden (SE Pennsylvania);
feel free to send them my way.
Does anyone know any #SDR tools (maybe a #GNURadio script?) to turn an SDR into a wideband scanner? Or is there a clever frontend device that can do that?
I have a nice SDR (LimeSDR Mini) that’ll do 20+MHz bandwidth and 0-3GHz, but what I really want is a visualisation of large chunks of spectrum (100MHz minimum, ideally full range) to identify congestion and rogue transmitters in our building on all ISM, FM, DECT, RadioMic, TV, WiFi, etc. bands.
I understand that it’ll be slower, having to sweep across the frequencies, but averaging over minutes is fine.
But there are spectrum monitoring devices around that seem to manage it somehow.

Ooooh, which one? I have a v3 RTL-SDR for VHF and UHF and a fancier AirSpy HF+Discovery that is amazing for HF work.
VHF and UHF are where commercial radio and a lot of air traffic live. It's generally radio line-of-sight. Handhelds of all types are usually one of those. Even if you don't have an RTL-SDR, their site has a lot of good info on general things you can do and find in that range.
