Is anyone here using a rtl dongle or hackrf for scanning federal bands? If so, what kind of software setup are you utilizing?
I've had poor/inconsistent luck using one of the scanner plugins for sdr# (**SDR# Plugins). Sometimes it stops when it should, stops when it shouldn't, it doesn't stop at all.
Edit: Just want to clarify, you don't need to be scanning federal bands per se, just multiple ones in one big pass (vhf, uhf, 700/800mhz interops, etc).
