Does anyone here have any interest in remote reporting radio direction finders ? ( RDFs )
I think if it can be developed as open source software using cheap hardware like the RTL-SDR (the kiwisdr is expensive), that would be a very good project worthy of an ARDC grant.
I agree. An RTL-SDR may or may not cut it (one way to find out ;) ), but open source software, and open and inexpensive hardware would be interesting to pursue.
True, but as you put it, one never knows till it's tried. Ever since all my friends have been hosting the flightaware receivers, the idea of a few internet connected frequency agile receivers able to compare signals with a map overlay has been in the back of my mind.
