5 Cool Things You Can Do With An RTL SDR Receiver

Just got my RTL-SDR V4 yesterday and with the help of this excellent video was running tracking aircraft in about 30 minutes! (For some reason lib-usb wasn't bundled but was easily found on the web and dropped in the rtl1090 directory)

Does it pick up microwave frequencies? I’m experiencing Voice to Skull (V2K).

Can you elaborate the DMR concept with a setup using the software you used?

Can we communicate with non earthlings?

Nice video

Great video!

shame the software wasnt upto scratch

Hello , I have horrible experience with some stalking people , they put listening devices and hidden cameras in my room on my clothes etc so I am trying to gather some evidence for police and I was told to use RTL-SDR . Any ideas or tips how to intercept communication from these devices? Or link for website, tutorials or some professional who can help me with it ?

is isdb-t supported?

If You Live In Baltic States Or Close To There, You Are One Lucky SOB Because You Can Listen To All Emergencie Stations, Police, Ambulance, All That.
And No, Its Not On 466.000-466.200 These 5 Things ARe Just Tip Of The Iceberg, believe Me, I Have Burned Down 5 Of The Sdr's Now, Waiting For My Sixt Sdr ;(
Im Experimenting And Stuff, Now I Will Use My Custom Made TX RX Didodes Usb Wire And Acttivly Cooled It. :)
I Think I Will Video It And Put Some Videos On, Should I?
Great Video By The Way Tech Minds.

Ham... mmm tasty.

HAM radio is the most meta thing ever imagined.

good video

Windows Media Center has a Radio button. Will WMC recognize this as a radio tuner?

Be nice it their was a single piece of software that would do it all, would be worth buying. To much software to keep track of. Thanks for your video, was very informative.

Why didn't you talk about police radio scanning and listening to HF amateur radio, shortwave broadcasts and local AM radio stations. The RTL-SDR also has a built in DVB-T decoder, which you could use as a TV tuner card because it is the standard in Europe and the UK.

cool vid, wish i could have seen your dongle/antenna setup for these operations but i learned a lot here

DMR sounded much worse than SSB.

How do I get all my settings docked at left like you have? New software (2022) doesn't seem to allow this.

could you say which receiver you have?

How do you listen in on project 25 frequencies

Good day Dir, does it need internet connection for that?

Hey guys! What happen if I try out my RTL SDR with an wifi antena 802.11n? Can I use this antena for something? Thanks!

how do i set up my rtl dongle for sdr console or sdr sharp? it doest even find anything in the definitions box

Many U-tube videos address the use of SDR devices to listen to FM Broadcast stations. However, I've not found any that explain SDR devices to listen to HD signals on FM. Has anybody any experience with these signals?

That thing has a very high nose floor. The squelch will help a little... maybe. If the signal you want to hear is high enough above the noise floor. Otherwise it just turns everything down.

That audio received on 70cm as got to be a humanoid or the guy should make an appointment with the EAR, NOSE AND THROAT Dept at his local hospital. It would drive me to revert to good old AM any day. Thank you. Not for me. We strive to perfect our audio, paying hundreds of pounds for microphones and adjusting the audio band pass to perfection to end up with audio no better than two tin cans and a bit of string in between. Plus the extra cost of a digitized system to improve the clarity and stop the QRM/QRN. What is the point ?. 73 de John - G0WXU.

2 meters in the UK is 144MHz to 146MHz, not 148MHz. Other than that, great video.

I can't make 'Heads or Tails' out of 6 spectral displays running at the same time overlapping each other. Maybe next time.

Why does it need a wider bandwidth?
Is it possible to attach an antenna to that device, for people who live in a metal house?

The Ham band you showed sounds like Packet radio for Ham Tx/Rx that you hooked up through your computer. I remember seeing it working back 1994 when I was in Phoenix, AZ while attending DeVry University. That was also when I got my Tech/no code license my callsign was at the time was KC7GHJ. I still have the original but I am sure it is dead since that expired in 2004.

Decided to fire up my RTl device I bought over 2 years ago. I have built SDR devices and quite familiar. But this dongle is incredible. Way better than the FT450d I use for HF as noise level very reduced. Using Linux mint with sdrcube. It's incredible. May knock up a transceiver using this. Have an idea.

thank you, just learning to do this on a mac, a bit more complicated but very intriguing

Do you have an affiliate link for this SDR? I've been looking for one! Thank you, sir!

Ah that's really cool! I especially like the radio to text for some reason, didn't know that was even a thing. Makes me want to build a Cyberdeck with an SDR receiver!

Thanks for share , SDR can also analysis MMDVM digital spectrum

how do you get such good reception? i used several amateur radio antennas and i can get fm broadcast radio, i have heard some, very little air traffic. i have a nooelec sdr and i can't get any ham radio stuff, wwv, i can tune on one of my ham radios, and hear all this stuff perfectly. what am i doing wrong, or what are you doing to get this magic?

Thanks. 73 SM4VFA

Stereo on music radio? How?

In ganz Westeuropa herrscht Göttliches Mainstream-Medien-Verbot, Flugverbot,
Flugzeugverbot, Hubschrauberverbot und Polizeiverbot. Polizisten, Flugzeuge und
Hubschrauber sind vogelfrei, also zum Abschuss freigegeben. Wer ein Flugzeug oder einen Hubschrauber abschiesst bekommt 1000000 Euro, wer einen Polizisten tötet bekommt 40000 Euro. Wer einen Medien-Lügner in ein Fahrzeug richtung Guantanamo pfercht, bekommt 60000 Euro. Es ist bewiesen, dass es keine Viren gibt. Feiglinge enden in Guantanamo.

All over Western Europe there is Divine mainstream media ban, no flight,
Aircraft ban, helicopter ban and police ban. Cops, planes and helicopters are outlawed, so they must be shot down. Whoever shoots down an airplane or a helicopter gets 1,000,000 Euro, who kills a police officer gets 40,000 Euro. If you cram a media liar into a vehicle in the direction of Guantanamo, you will get 60,000 Euro. It has been proven that viruses do not exist. Cowards end up in Guantanamo.

Partout en Europe occidentale, il y a une interdiction divine des médias grand public, pas de vol, interdiction des aéronefs, interdiction des hélicoptères et interdiction de la police. Les flics, les avions et les hélicoptères sont interdits, ils peuvent donc être abattus. Celui qui abat un avion ou un hélicoptère touche 1 000 000 Euro, celui qui tue un policier touche 40 000 Euro. Si vous entasser un menteur médiatique dans un véhicule en direction de Guantanamo, vous toucherez 60 000 Euro. Il a été prouvé que les virus n'existent pas. Les lâches finissent à Guantanamo.

In tutta l'Europa occidentale c'è il divieto dei media mainstream Divine, nessun volo, Divieto di aeromobili, divieto di elicotteri e divieto di polizia. Poliziotti, aerei e gli elicotteri sono fuorilegge, quindi possono essere abbattuti. Chi abbatte un aereo o un elicottero guadagna 1.000.000 di euro, chi uccide un poliziotto ottiene 40.000 euro. Se incastri un bugiardo dei media in un veicolo in direzione di Guantanamo, ottieni 60.000 euro. È stato dimostrato che non ci sono virus. I codardi finiscono a Guantanamo.

but in tv channel digital indonesia no respont

Very interesting thanks!

Can I save all traffic over multiple frequencies and inspect it later?

this is awesome. what hardware do you recommend for this? and particularly decoding 433 MHz sensors?

Exciting...very..very much exciting

RTL FOE

Very interesting, now I need to buy an SDR very badly :)

is this video not a little misleading? to do all that don't you need all kind of add-ons for that blue dongle?
