What I would like to see is someone or a group of individuals come up with a SDR based service monitor for the average ham operator. Basic operations would include frequency and deviation of transmitters testing as well as receiver sensitivity testing. Basics of a service monitor. Now there could be other specialized add ons such as decoding and encoding for digital modes (ie D Star, DMR, P25 etc.) pocsag encode and decode. Instead of R Pi based one could use some of the surplus mini computers available on e Bay. They are more powerful and might be able to handle multiple functions at one time plus it would have to have the capabilities of a true service monitor to handle ALL frequencies from VLF to at least 1 GHz.

I'm finishing-up my eighth homebuilt airplane, which sounds like a lot except that's over 50 years of building. This new one is a Quickie Q1 -- a VERY SMALL canard design. The entire instrument panel is an iPad that even controls an autopilot. But now I am interested in SDRs and wonder if I can use them to make aviation (118.000 to 136.975 MHz) transceivers? Of course I CAN, but should I? It's just AM modulation and I am properly licensed with an FCC Class 1 license (I was chief engineer at a commercial radio station at age 17) and the little plane has a radio license, too. I'm not a licensed radio MANUFACTURER, but surely these SDRs fit the technical requirements, so why not do it?
@HB9BLA
Жыл бұрын
1. Nice little plane, and an interesting setup. I also had an experimental canard in mind (I even went for a test flight in Florida). But it was a too big project for me. So I admire your work! 2. Most modern radios are based on SDR technology. This might not apply to aviation because, as I remember, this technology mostly was "proven" and therefore old. 3. You probably could build an SDR transceiver. But AFAIK you are not allowed to use it. The right to build is only for licensed HAM operators, and only in the HAM bands. DIY receivers are ok in most countries.

I was hoping for a preconfigured OS that I can put on a PI that is remote and connect using a web front end. This is because I can put it up high and away from noise. I currently use sdr sharp and it would be good to still use that but it seems far too time consuming to set all of that up. VNC isn't really very good especially over wifi for realtime listening - it takes half of the PI just to stream the VNC desktop.
