SDR

Software-defined radio is a huuuge topic. A few subcategories:

• Gnuradio
• Decoding signals
• Digital modes
• Digital CW
• Mobile DX
• Remote listening/operating

The general sdr page:

• Radio/SDR

Web SDR

Tune into different bands, show different aspects from the Novice, Tech, and General license manuals

Listen in on some code, show what CQ sounds like and pick out aspects of conversations

Tune into particular bands, listen in, use them to illustrate particular topics and explore them.

Digital modes

Gradually making progress on uncovering how, exactly, digital modes work.

Radio/Digital Modes

There are multiple digital modes, so I'm learning about each, one at a time.

Large Area Networks

Setting up networks for sensor data acquisition over large distances:
