gollark: It sounds like a weird thing which wouldn't transfer well to other radio stuff.
gollark: <@224348995844177920> It's from an RTL-SDR and some software. RTL-SDRs are cheap software defined radio receivers using a digital TV receiver chip which turned out to have SDR capabilities for some reason.
gollark: I might look into that. Although I think I would still need a better antenna and such.
gollark: The direct sampling thing?
gollark: I have an RTL-SDR but don't use it much, are there any cool things I can do without much additional hardware?
