Thank you to Blinry who recently wrote an article about how they set themselves a challenge to find 50 things to do with an RTL-SDR in one week. Blinry writes:
Last week, I attempted the challenge to try to find 50 things to do with an RTL-SDR device in a week!
It was quite an adventure: I received satellites and radio from the other side of the world, I went on a hunt for a radiosonde, and I invented a method to communicate using the NFC tag in a library book!
I used the RTL-SDR Blog V4 for everything, plus the antenna kit, plus a long piece of wire.
Congratulations Blinry for achieving your goal and taking us on a whirlwind ride through the different applications of RTL-SDR!
