In this episode we are going to talk about SDR software defined radio and how with just our mobile and a 15 euro USB TV tuner we will be able to have our own portable SHIP LOCATOR (AIS) or a RADAR with the nearby PLANES, a universal radio SCANNER to listen to any broadcast and even a TV on the mobile. All WITHOUT the need to consume data or INTERNET connection, and being able to carry it in our pocket. A super simple but very powerful invention, DO NOT MISS IT.
