acarsdec 2.0 with built-in rtl_sdr frontend

Thanks to Andreas Reinhardt who have port my old acarsdec code to rtl_sdr (http://lists.osmocom.org/pipermail/osmocom-sdr/2013-July/000712.html) I gain interest back to acars decoding and decided to rewrite completely acarsdec and to add it some new features, in particular a rtl front end. So , I am please to announce the acarsdec 2.0 release : https://sourceforge.net/projects/acarsdec Acarsdec is an open source, multi-channels realtime ACARS decoder for Linux. It features : - up to four channels decoded simultaneously - multi-threaded - error detection AND correction (all one error corrected and some two errors) - input from sound file , alsa sound card or software defined radio (SRD) via a rtl dongle The 4 channels decoding is particularly useful with the rtl dongle. It allows to directly listen simultaneously to 4 different frequencies. Ie: acarsdec -r 0 131.525 131.725 131.825 Will decode acars on 3 frequencies with the rtl dongle number 0. try and enjoy Thierry Leconte
