Greetings all,
Wondering if anyone here has experience with the RTL dongles for airband listening? I've moved to a location which happens to be a mile away from a reasonably busy airport so should be within range to receive the comms from both sides.
I was hoping to be able to simply purchase an off-the-shelf dongle, plug it in and set it going but all I'm seeing on sites like ebay and amazon are literally hundreds of different RTL-SDR model numbers all claiming to receive the entire frequency bandwidth and it's all a bit overwhelming for a tech noob like me.
I've read bits and pieces that say you need a certain type otherwise the transmissions get bled all over by strong FM stations and you can't hear anything but I don't know if there's any truth to that, hence wanting advice from any SDR users on the best way forward.
Thanks.
