FT8 2020.12.04

More FT8 monitoring on 40m with a SDR and the balcony corner magloop. Since I’m sure my reception is not that good, the bands must be picking up!

Well, the poor magloop isn’t doing too bad on receiving, even if it’s stuck in a balcony corner and blocked by buildings.

Monitoring WSPR for ~12 hours during the day with the same 20m EFHW. VK3MO‘s setup doesn’t count, it’s way too impressive 🙂

Monitoring FT8 on 20m for 24 hours with a Raspberry Pi, Gqrx, an SDR stick and the crappiest possible installation for a 20m EFHW antenna.

KN34, 20-10 EFHW on a fishing pole (used a SDR on it as well).

Monitoring airplane traffic with a RTL-SDR and dump_1090.

Let’s see what a rtl_sdr can catch around the public 433 MHz frequency, where many devices operate.
