Description

Turn your computer into a super radio receiver and tune in to FM, shortwave, amateur "ham," and even satellite frequencies from around the world and above it. With this book, you'll learn how to combine your desktop or laptop with easy-to-find Software Defined Radio (SDR) equipment to receive a wide range of signals. You'll also discover how to design and use an antenna to pick up these signals, including step-by-step instructions for choosing the right antenna shape, size, and orientation. The book covers both Windows and Linux operating systems, making it easy to get started with SDR technology. Whether you're handy or not, this guide will show you how to unlock the hidden signals that surround us. By following the instructions in this book, you'll be able to receive police, fire, and aircraft signals, as well as listen to encoded messages, all using nothing more than your computer and a $20 USB stick.
