Fucking troll user profile created five minutes ago. The site is for individuals who would like to engage in respectful discussion based in science. Get your political shit out of here.
After the post the last week about the DIY GPS receiver, I decided to get out my RTL-SDR and set it up. Took a couple of days of fiddling around with it, but now I've got SDRtrucking setup. Spent one morning listening to the public safety radio traffic. That was a wild ride on it's own with all sorts of things going on in this metropolitan area.
Thank you so much for posting everything that you did. Long-form details are hard to find. In my truest contribution, I suggest you're a pleasure to work with. Rarely have I seen anyone willing to give the deep-digest of their determination and problems with a function. Consider writing more!
EDIT
I didn't see the other posts about brevity. Fuck that. Details matter and so does the human experience. Who hasn't on this site been the unfortunate recipient of trying to get some brilliant but shitty function to work?
Ha! I've used a high-end GPS to see my location and other fun facts in flight. I learned to keep it in my pocket as despite my attempts to explain it was only a receiver, I was told by the flight attendant to "PUT IT AWAY." Not being one to push back as to be removed for that flight, I did just that.
Streets and Trips was fun on a laptop for long car drives as you could live reroute in the car much like any old app can do these days but seemed somehow magical back then.
