Interesting software SDR and PD

[algwat (Alan)]

Gidday all,
at this link you can find an example of how Puredata software can be used with a RTL-SDR usb.

Could be useful for those doing radio astronomy and other things?
I hope to try and use it for Meteor passive radar using multiple usb SDR's.

The software is very graphical and has many examples. Can do audio, graphical, and video things.

kind regards, Alan Watson

Hi all

I am dipping my toes in the water regarding radio and SDR. Since there has been a lack of comment regarding this thread, I am wondering if there are others out there who have tried this?

I would be interested to hear because I have decided to build a few antennas and have some questions and ideas to throw around - especially for anyone who has looked at the designs by John Coppens or read the article "Building a Quadrifilar Helix Antenna for Undergraduate Researchers".


(note regarding plurals - I believe the plural of antenna, when talking about radio/tv is antennas. The plural of antenna when talking about bugs/animals is antennae. I would be happy to hear comments on this as well.)


Thanks
Darrell
