Meaning, the radio only digitizes a certain frequency band and your PC does the heavy lifting. The demodulating is done with your computer.
#WHISTLER WS1010 OPEN SOURCE SCANNER SOFTWARE#
It's got some features that make it different from a hardware radio like the Baofeng.įirst off, it's a software radio. The RTL-SDR Blog V3 unit costs around 30 bucks, and that gets you the stick, an antenna, and some cable. This is a USB TV tuner that enthusiasts have modified into being a general purpose radio receiver. No graphical display, just a basic text LCD with frequencies and the like.Ĭlocking in at a similar price, the RTL-SDR!
Scan features exist, but it can easily miss a transmission. Rail is almost exclusively VHF, and the Baofeng covers it at a low cost.ĭownsides being it's a hardware radio, so it only does 2 channels and picks up one at a time. I'm a night photographer, so I listen to a lot of rail frequencies if I'm out shooting, because train tracks are real nice for backdrops but not so great when a train comes barreling down on you.įirst option, and one you've most likely heard about before, the Baofeng.Ĭomes in at a cost of like 20-30 bucks, is mobile, and is decent for rail frequencies. I'll assume you want a fixed receiver, but I'll note if they can be made mobile.
