Overview
Done
Hardware
- "ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM" dongle (RTL2838U, Fitipower FC0013 tuner)
- VK5QI HABamp
- Raspberry Pi (+ power supply)
- Antenna: Diamond X-50N
Software
- Raspbian: revspace/geheim
- IP: 10.42.43.20
- SSH/Mosh: revspace/geheim
- running rtl_tcp on port 1234 (default)

Todo
Hardware
- Earth the antenna, to prevent static buildup
- Moar ferrite
- Metal box for some shielding (DIY or be lazy and get something like [1] or [2])
Software
- Setting up a (virtual?) machine with gqrx and dl-fldigi.
- Blokje told us we could use his machine for permanent setup
- This requires us to move the SpaceSoundSystem towards something like a Cubieboard
- Preferred to setup a complete NAS at the same time, this idea has been floating around for a while too
