SDR# Basement Storage Find

[N1SQB]

I went digging for something else in our storage, and found these babies. I know 2 are flight related. I think the others are for SDR. Does anyone know if these are still useful today? Again, I’m referring to the 2 black ones and the NooElec. I’d love to get back into SDR#. I still have the software on one of my older PCs someplace.

They will all work today and the 2 flight related will also work as if they were a nooelec or rtl sdr. Orange one may have an LNA on board.

Thanks for the info. Is there still 1090 MHz. ADSB activity these days? I’m thinking about using the blue mode-s filter.

I use one of the orange ones for 7/800mhz monitoring. Works great!

Good to know. I have 2 SDS200s for 7/800 stuff.

Yes, 1090MHz ADSB isnt going away anytime soon - I have the same FlightAware dongle and it works as you would expect (mine has been relegated to an ADSB receiver raspberry pi setup for the last 5 years, no issues) - I'd still keep it around

You know, I have always been curious about the raspberry pi but never really looked into it. How difficult is it to set up?

1090 definitely works ha
