RTL-SDR - an SDR receiver from a cheap DVB-T tuner on a USB connector

Lublin - only digital. I tested it and of course it works. How to set the program is described in this topic and generally on this forum.

Hello, could anyone describe the step-by-step procedure for installing the DSD + program for decoding mototrbo. I already have a Zadig installed and I receive aircraft positions from ADS - B. I have a problem with SDR to listen to, it shows me that it does not detect the device.

As for searching the forum, I did it, but I found nothing that would describe the installation process step by step.
Below I post a screnn with an error.

Hello, I have a problem.
I bought a decoder with the latest chip and installed the original firmware from the board ...
now I have a problem with installing sdr sharp, is the problem due to the fact that I have the original driver installed?
If so, can the tuner be "saved"?

And you did well. Now you need Zadig to replace the driver. The topic has few pages. Don't take the easy way, just review it from the beginning. I guarantee that all descriptions are included in it.

This is my antenna made of a ski pole, screwed to the base of the magnetic CB antenna, and I can pick up all stations from about 20 km, I think you can pick up more on the wire,

The antenna looks east, west and south, I can't see Gliwice from the north.

As I wrote earlier, I listen to the train and it should walk without any problems.

Previously, I failed to add a file

How long is the radiator? You will get a much better reception if you connect the cable braid to a metal railing. Best to make 1/4 wave counterweight.

Tomorrow it is coming, but at this point the antenna picks up the best and I have no noise, because I moved to other places and there were problems with receiving it due to noise, the SDR receiver is DVB-T FM DAB 820T2 & SDR

I have not written anything about relocating the antenna. It's just about the counterweight.

Hello colleagues after a short break
Does anyone have a fraquency scanner for sdr 1332 because from a friend don_viking I got the entire program 14 .. and when I turned it off, an error appeared and he did not remember the settings later, so I had to set everything up again and 1332 works stably, but I can not find a plug that would work and I return to the topic of setting the scan, for example, the given bandwidth and at the moment when someone sends me to stop and after the transmission is finished, he scanned again like a typical scanner because now I have PSP set and I listen to 1 frequency; / and I'm interested in amplifying my antenna photos a few posts earlier . Unfortunately, the blocks around, as they are broadcast from PSP, it goes nicely but as soon as from the car to probably 2 km max; / I plan to throw a naked 42 cm on the roof, I'm just waiting for a 9 m cable it will then be above the blocks and let you know how it is doing because the dipole is too conspicuous
I also ordered Nagoya NA-773 SMA-F Dual Band Antenna 144/430 MHz but somehow it does not do well on the windowsill; / she probably will be better for the scanner with the amplifier ...

Try to install this version from the FMSuite attachment, it will probably work with the old version of SDRSharp. There is also an eazyscanner.

And on this page you have most of the plugins for the program.

Alternatively, you can check my plugin archive in the attachment.
I also added a more interesting reworked version of SDRSharp called SDRSharper, unfortunately there are no additional plugins there.

To my colleague Kriss51, the radiator is 112 cm long, the diameter at the bottom is 18 mm and at the top 10 mm, the antenna base is metallically connected to the balustrade through a metal base to which the cable shield is connected, I can sacrifice a stick and shorten it every few cm or the reception will improve.

I have a question, what can I listen to it? I don't think you have heard it for some time because they have a coded signal.

Everything in the range of 25-1700 MHz with all emissions, eg aviation, fire brigade, hams, CB, PMR, etc., after adding a converter, you can listen practically from 100 KHz. If you still use a suitable program, you can decode digital broadcasts.

For 150 MHz, the radiator and counterweight must be 50 cm each. 112 cm is definitely too much.

Here is a description of what and where you can hear. It is true that these are old entries, and the site is in the archive, but for beginners it is quite useful.

http://www.peter384.cal.pl/r/r.html for example, if I want to listen to PKP, this page is OK, I am asking also the MODERATOR to ask colleagues to give their location in their profile. And for example kapav22 and don_viking sparkle in tmatach. I am from Zabrze and not when you can meet.

It is not the points that are important, but the knowledge of the forum members.

For starters, move the antenna further away from the building wall, as the roof antenna won't help.

Hello, recently I was getting a lot of news at PW, so I decided to create a topic that serves as an installation guide for SDR tuner, SDRScharp and Virtual Audio Cable. I hope it will be useful for beginners in the subject of SDR.
Best regards.

Siemano, I'm not satisfied with the range, where I receive from a DVB-T decoder and a half-wave dipole antenna .. What do you think about whether to buy a radio? Anything would help? Here, for example, this radio I wanted to buy but I wonder: http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-BAOFENG-UV-...-Transceiver-Radio-Walkie-Talkie-p-61066.html

Well, see for yourself that the antenna has nowhere to expand to catch the signal, I will not say because I can hear the control panel with 20 KM in the evenings, but mobile stations are approx. 2km, 3km, 4km, you can't hear it anymore, no noise ... Yes it looks like the encirclement of blocks around me:

This radio works in the ranges of 136 - 174 MHz and 400 - 480/520 MHz (depending on the software version) + FM radio reception. So I don't know if it will please you. As for the antenna, talk to the neighbor / m and above, maybe they will let you hang at home.

What could it be?
You hear a humming noise that stops from time to time.

Most likely your PPM is misconfigured. This is most likely a transmission on 172.6875.

He asked "what is it" - meaning "what transmission", not whether it has a well-set PPM.
It is a digital voice broadcast.

Okay, no matter what, maybe I asked the question wrong.
How can I hear what is broadcast there?

You need to know the type of transmission and have the key - 99% you can't do anything because ... you don't have the key.

And some decoder will not be able to do it?

No, because you need a key to decode.

OK thanks for the information.

The number of analogue broadcasts that can be listened to is narrowing, soon there will probably be only the airline, amateurs + some PMR to listen to.

And I have a question, what can I decode, for example, DSD?

First you need to know what's going on there, not to write in the dark.

When a colleague corrects the PPM, it may turn out that there is nothing to decode there.

This system has been launched, but 99% no one is working on it. And what you can see is just a regular frame.
