Great! I experimented with airband frequencies. I’m surprised I don’t have more activity. I’m 7 miles from MSP airport and 3 miles from a local busy airport. I found when I “locked in” for 8 to 12 seconds I got more info but of course fewer frequencies. MSP is local to Minneapolis,MN and is a hub for Delta airlines (USA). Any suggestions for increased activity? Is mileage a factor? Thanks for opening up a new vista in SWL. de N0WDM
Tech Minds it’s a vertical slinky indoor antenna about 32 inches high 7 feet up from the ground. I have a much better active antenna arriving tomorrow from Germany. Of course that may make a huge difference 🤣
Yup, that’s the issue there then. Get yourself an outside antenna, anything that covers 2m would probably do well for airband. Let us know how you get on with your active antenna 👍
I saw another video somewhere where they were scanning and it displayed the station info, location, language, etc. Looked like he was using SDRuno. What was that? Third party software?
Does the scan save the demodulated signal for the frequencies it detected so that you can go back and identify the content for each frequency it found?
CAN NO LONGER OPEN 'SCANNER CONFIG' WINDOW - The Scanner window still opens and plays pauses and stops like it should. The Scanner Config window was previously working without issues, and I even made some presets - but now I cannot find the Scanner Config anywhere on either monitor. The Scanner Config 'button' letters temporarily change color from white to orange then back to white when pressed, but the Scanner Config window does not open anywhere to be found. I've moves panels around thinking it was hidden behind one, but it cannot be found. Last preset running was Air-band, and it's now 'stuck' on Air-band and scanning properly on Air-band, except that I can't open and adjust settings in Scanner Config window such as 'Threshold', etc. Has anyone experienced this problem and how might you have fixed it? I'm running SDR RSPdx hardware, SDRuno v1.40.2 software, Windows 10 64bit, and have even tried completely deleting and reinstalling SDRuno v1.40.2, and rebooting everything many times... but no fix. Thank you for your assistance.
This SDR - software just gets better and better. Thank you.
What sorts of vhf/uhf antenna you got on the chimney? Love your videos! :)
Outstanding! Simple and straightforward. Thank you de N0WDM, USA
You’re most welcome 🙏
Does the MEM mode include a priority selection which would scan that channel at a greater frequency than the rest of the channels ?

I wonder what kind of antenna you are using for AirBand?

AMAZING software.

Hello, it's normal that when scan mode is active, the volume control is not available?
Thank you for your answer
Is this function available for "old" RSP1, or should I get a new RSP1A?
Could you do a video on programming the Retevis RT82? I just picked one up and it’s been confusing the hell out of me.
Unfortunately I don’t own the RT82, yet, but if I do manage to get one then I will make a video on programming. Thanks for watching 👌
Whats the scan speed (in sec), for example from 220 to 400 (mil band) .. (with no hits)... thks
Awesome - Thanks very much from Australia. :-)
You’re welcome 😊

thank you for this video
You’re welcome
Is this done by plugins or is it already in the software
It’s built into the SDRuno software
Thanks I love your videos.
Glad you like them!
does this unit have DAB?
