    Title : SignalsEverywhere: Harold’s Mobile SDR Vehicle Load
    Out for Amateur Radio

    Content : This week on the SignalsEverywhere YouTube channel Harold
    shows us the mobile SDR and ham radio setup that he's installed on
    his car. On the roof of his car he's installed several antennas
    for various amateur radio bands including the 1.25m, 2m, 70cm,
    33cm bands, a modified GPS puck antenna for Inmarsat and Iridium
    reception, and an antenna and GPS pick dedicated for APRS.

    Title : Calculating Coax Length by using a NanoVNA as a Time-Domain Reflectometer

    Content : Earlier in the month we posted about the NanoVNA,
    an open source VNA project by  @edy555 and ttrftech  that has
    recently become extremely affordable at US$50 for a fully assembled
    unit thanks to Chinese manufacturing.

    Title : Airspy HF+ Discovery: Collection of Tests and Reviews

    Content : The Airspy HF+ Discovery is a new US$169 software
    defined radio that recently began shipping. On HF it can tune
    from 0.5 kHz to 31 MHz, and on VHF from 60 to 260 MHz.

    Title : Automatically Photographing Passing Aircraft with an RTL-SDR,
    Pi 3, and IoT Software

    Content : Arun Venkataswamy has recently completed a write up about
    his system which automatically captures images of passing aircraft
    . It works by using a Raspberry Pi and RTL-SDR to listen to ADS-B
    broadcasts from aircraft. These broadcasts contain the live current
    location and altitude of all aircraft in his area. When a landing
    aircraft is detected to be passing near his house, the Raspberry
    Pi sends a signal to another Raspberry Pi connected to a camera on
    his balcony, and that snaps a photo of the passing aircraft.

    Title : Mike Tests out L-Band STD-C and AERO with a Low Cost Modified
    GPS Antenna

    Content : SDR-Kits.net have begun selling low cost GPS antennas
    that are modified to receive the Inmarsat satellite frequencies
    between  1535 MHz to 1550 MHz . They also have a version for Iridium satellites that receives  1610 MHz to 1630 MHz . The antennas are
    powered by a 3-5V bias tee, so they should work fine with SDRplay,
    Airspy and RTL-SDR Blog V3 units.

    Title : Podcasts: GNU Radio with Ben Hilburn + New Signals and
    Bits Episodes

    Content : The Scanner School Podcast has recently released a new
    episode featuring an interview with Ben Hilburn, President of the
    GNU Radio project . If you want to understand what GNU Radio is,
    and what role it plays in the SDR/radio world, then this is a good
    listen.
