DRIVERS - RTL-SDR
Last week we posted about Milen Rangelov’s (gat3way) new RTL-SDR driver which has exposed filter and gain settings for the R820T/2 chip. This should let you tweak for optimal reception much better. Previously the driver was only available for Linux, however, now over on SourceForge user randaller has ported this driver to Windows.. To use the driver in SDR# simply unzip all the files intoKRAKENSDR - RTL-SDR

ON7NDR's story is that he wanted to be able to receive GOES 16, but GETTING THE RTL-SDR TO WORK IN WINDOWS 10 The RTL-SDR is fully compatible with Windows 10. However with the recent release of Windows 10 some users have been having trouble using their RTL-SDR after upgrading. We thought that we'd announce that the simple solution to most problems is to reinstall the SDR drivers with Zadig. The latest version of Zadig can be downloaded from zadig.akeo.ie or if you use SDR# then it will already be THE BIG LIST OF RTL-SDR SUPPORTED SOFTWARE There are now dozens of software defined radio packages that support the ultra cheap RTL-SDR. On this page we will attempt to list, categorize and provide a brief overview of each software program. We categorize the programs into general purpose software, single purpose software, research software and software compatible with audio piping. If you know of a program that is missing pleaseKRAKENSDR - RTL-SDR
KrakenSDR is a 5-tuner coherent software defined radio based on RTL-SDR. It is the successor to the KerberosSDR and will be crowdfunded on Crowd Supply in a couple of months time. Please sign up to the KrakenSDR Crowd Supply mailing listSDRANGEL - RTL-SDR
Over on the LimeSDR facebook group Marty Wittrock (KN0CK) has been experimenting with his LimeSDR and SDRAngel. SDRAngel is a general purpose SDR program similar to SDR#/HDSDR/SDR-Console etc, but with the key difference that it is designed to incorporate TX features as well. SDRAngel has releases available for Linux and Windows. Marty writes that in early August SDRAngel SDRTRUNK SETUP AND USE TUTORIAL Over on his blog John Hagensieker has uploaded a tutorial that shows how to set up SDRTrunk with RTL-SDR dongles. SDRTrunk is an application that allows you to follow trunked radio conversations, and decode some digital voice protocols such as P25 Phase 1. It is similar to Unitrunker and DSDPlus combined into one program. It is also Java based so it is cross platform and so can beOPENEAR - RTL-SDR
OpenEar: An Easy to Use Windows TETRA Voice Decoder. A new TETRA voice decoder called "OpenEar" has just been released. The program is a standalone Windows app that directly connects to an RTL-SDR. Decoding a TETRA voice signal is as simple as opening the program, tuning to the TETRA frequency and clicking on the signal. UNITRUNKER - RTL-SDR A new program called Uni-SDR Link has just been released.This software allows Unitrunker to control SDR-Console V2. Unitrunker is software that allows you to follow trunked voice conversations, and SDR-Console V2 is a general purpose receiver, similar to other software such asSDR#.
RTL433 PLUGIN FOR SDR# NOW AVAILABLE Recently Marc has released his RTL433 plugin for SDR# over on GitHub and his Wixsite. RTL433 is a commonly used RTL-SDR command line program that provides decoders for a wide range of 433.92 MHz, 868 MHz, 315 MHz, 345 MHz, and 915 MHz ISM band devices. Examples of such devices include weather stations, alarm sensors, utility monitors, tire pressure monitors and more. NEW EXTIO FOR THE HACKRF AND HDSDR We've received a note from RTL-SDR.com reader Tim about a new ExtIO module available for the HackRF and HDSDR. ExtIO stands for External IO, and is a special DLL file that allows HDSDR and other software to access hardware like the HackRF. To use it, simply copy the HackRF ExtIO dll file into the HDSDR directory, and select it when opening HDSDR. The module currently supports 2, 4, 8, 10, SDR# GPREDICT SATELLITE TRACKING PLUGIN Thanks to Alex for submitting news about his new SDR# plugin called 'SDRSharp.GpredictConnector'. This plugin allows SDR# to interface with GPredict which is a tool used for tracking the orbit of satellites. Just like with the DDE Tracking plugin and the Orbitron satellite tracking program this plugin could be used to automatically tune SDR# to the frequency of a passing satelliteRTL-SDR.COM

SEARCHING FOR EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE (SETI) WITH A HACKRF The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is an ongoing project that aims to detect radio signals originating from intelligent species somewhere in the universe. Recently Alberto Caballero, a SETI researcher has been proposing a distributed search(project pdf
document
)
with amateur and/or professional radio telescopes. The idea is that multiple stations around the world would monitor a single star for a period of time in order to collect data 24/7. To participate the requirements are a dish 2.1 meters or larger, a motorized mount, and a feed, LNA and radio system able to receive 1 - 4.5 GHz. An example of a SETI station can be found at SETI Net . Here the owner has a 3M dish on a rotor connected to a HackRF . An LNA and band pass filter are also used at the feed end. SDR Console or SDR# is used to monitor a specific frequency, and the audio is sent into a special automatic SETI analysis program as well as spectrum analysis software. If an interesting signal is detected the software notifies the user, then further analysis can be undertaken. If you have a suitable radio telescope available and want to participate, you can contact the SETI project via their contact form.

AIRSPY BLACK FRIDAY DEALS NOW ACTIVE Airspy have released their black Friday 2020 deals today with 30% off. Back in 2019 we saw that the black friday deals were the best time to purchase an Airspy and we don't expect pricing to get cheaper than this. Links to their distributors can be found on airspy.com.
Airspy sell a range of software defined radios. The HF+ Discovery is one of the best (if not the best) low cost HF SDRs we've ever tested, and the Airspy Mini and R2 are good wide band VHF/UHF radios that are a step up from RTL-SDRs. The SpyVerter is a good upconverter that is also compatible with RTL-SDRs, and can be used with the bias tee on the RTL-SDR Blog V3. The sale brings the pricing down to the following prices in USD (plusshipping costs):
AIRSPY HF+ DISCOVERY: $169 $118.30 AIRSPY MINI: $99 $69.30 AIRSPY R2: $169 $118.30 SPYVERTER R2: $49 $34.30 Frugal Radio has also uploaded a short videoregarding the sale.

FENGYUN-2H/G GEOSTATIONARY WEATHER SATELLITE NOW DECODABLE WITH 120CM DISH (EUROPE TO AUSTRALIA COVERAGE) Hot on the heels of the GOES-13 weather satellite decoder that weposted
about a few days ago, @aang254 has just released a new RTL-SDR compatible decoder for the FengYun-2H, 2G and possibly 2E geostationary weather satellites.
The FengYun-2 line of weather satellites are the Chinese equivalents to GOES, and they are positioned to cover parts of Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Russia, and Australia. So this is another geostationary weather satellite now available to Europeans which broadcasts in the L-Band at 1687.5 MHz. And unlike the weaker GOES-13 L-Band downlink, the FengYun-2 downlink is much stronger which means that reception with a 120cm satellite dish should be possible. We note that it has not yet been confirmed if the typical 90-100 cm WiFi dishes used with GOES-16 and 17 will be big enough to work. @aang254writes:
> Yesterday I successfully decoded the S-VISSR downlink from > FengYun-2H thanks to a recording by @MartanBlaho > . It is stronger than PDR on EWS-G1 > (see Zbychu's signal > https://twitter.com/ZSztanga/status/1329801728162754560…> ) meaning
> it should (untested) be doable with a 120cm (or smaller but no > confirmation again) dish instead of 180cm.>
> It covers parts of Europe, Russia and down to Australia. FY-2G and > FY-2E (no confirmation for this one yet) are also decodable in the > same way. I released an early decoder, that currently is not > suitable for automated setups but allows getting images already. A > later version (that should come soon-ish) will allow live decoding / > autonomous setups in a similar fashion to other satellites.>
> Also, the res is 2km/px on VIS and 8km/px on IR, so half that of > GOES-13 with similar-ish coverage (Europe is less visible though).>
> (also forgot to say but the bandwidth is under 2Mhz, allowing a > rtlsdr to be used)>

VIDEO TUTORIAL ON DEBUGGING RF EMISSIONS ON A CIRCUIT BOARD WITH ANRTL-SDR
Over on the Hackaday YouTube channel a video by Alex Whittemore has been uploaded showing how to do some basic RF emissions debugging. When creating electronic products it's important to ensure that there is no unintentional RF leakage in excess of emissions standards, and there is often a need to debug a circuit board to determine exactly what part or areas are generating excessive RF noise. To do this expensive EMC analyzers and near field probes are typically used. Alex's tutorial video shows us how we can create a low cost home made EMC probe using an RTL-SDR, LNA and home made near field probe made out of magnet wire. The video starts by explaining RF compliance, demonstrating some higher end equipment, then moves on to showing how to build a probe yourself, before finally demonstrating it being used on some circuit boards. For software, he uses SDRAngel and QSPectrumAnalzyer which are preinstalled on a DragonOS image. The Hacakday.io project page has the tutorial in text and the video slides can be found here.
In the past we've also seen another post about home made EMC probes, and how to combine this idea with OpenCV to create noise heatmaps of circuit boards.

INFORMATION ABOUT RECEIVING THE GOES-13 WEATHER SATELLITE (EUROPE COVERAGE WITH 1.8M DISH) For some time now many weather satellite enthusiasts have enjoyed the ability to relatively easily receive live high resolution images directly from the GOES-16, GOES-17 and GK-2A geostationary satellites(tutorial here
).
However, while much of the world can see at least one of these satellites, European's have been left out. What may be of some interest to Europeans is that the older GOES-13 (aka EWS-G1) satellite was repositioned in February 2020, and it can now be received in Europe (as well as Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Russia and West Australia) until at least 2024 when it will bereplaced.
The _important catch_ however is that GOES-13 is not broadcasting the same easy to receive LRIT/HRIT signals that the other satellites use. The signal is still in the L-Band at 1685.7 MHz, however it is called "GVAR" and it is much weaker and uses 5 MHz of bandwidth. For GOES 16/17 and GK-2A a 1m WiFi grid dish, LNA and RTL-SDR was sufficient, but for GOES-13 you'll need a much larger 1.8m dish, and a wider band SDR like an Airspy. The big dish requirement significantly increases the reception challenge. We also note that the decoder is being developed by @aang254and u/Xerbot
and it is not yet publicly released. However, they do intend to release it soon. Update: * U/XERBOTS DECODER: https://github.com/Xerbo/GVAR-Tools * @AANG254'S DECODER: https://github.com/altillimity/GVAR-Ingestor Over on his blog Carl Reinemann has been collecting some usefulinformation about
GOES-13 reception. Over on Reddit u/derekcz has also created a post with some useful information. We've also been talking to @ZSztanga in Poland who has been testing this satellite out, he wrote: > My hardware is: 180cm prime focus dish, with a custom cantenna > (120mm diameter). I'm using the SAWBIRD GOES LNA. I will be > switching to the + version, because the setup is still lacking a few > db SNR. The SDR is the one I use for HRPT: the airspy mini>
> I found that the USB connection on the airspy generates a lot of > noise, so I removed the USB cable, by moving the airspy to the > laptop. I use 2m of CNT-400 coax and it works much better now. I get > about 2 db SNR more. Thought you might find it interesting.@ZSztanga's
GOES-13 Reception Setup, with 1.8m dish. We note that there is some interesting differences with GOES-13 images. Since the image is less processed, it is higher resolution (a full resolution image can be found on this Reddit post),
as well as not cropped, meaning that the Earth's atmosphere is visible. Please also follow @ZSztang on Twitter for more images.__Tweet

HERMES AND RED PITAYA NOW SUPPORTED IN OPENWEBRX Thank you to Stefan Dambeck (DC7DS) for submitting news about OpenWebRX adding support for Hermes HPSDR compatible SDRs.
Hermes is a single board version of the open source high performance SDR (HPSDR ) design. There are several compatible Hermes designs including the newer Hermes-Lite 2. The Red Pitaya
is an open source electronics laboratory instrument, but custom software can be installed allowing it to function as an HPSDR type SDR. OpenWebRX is software which allows you to access your SDR remotely via the internet or local network through a web browser. Stefan notes: > I built a test setup today using a Red Pitaya 125-14 SDR in HPSDR > mode, and this is now also supported, see screenshot.>
> At the moment, only one receive stream is supported, for the red > pitaya with 192KHz bandwidth.The
