I’ve been playing with a python application to scan, find and record strong signals. I attached the code with the hope that someone would like to improve it … maybe put it on sourceforge or github. I will not have time to do anything about it for a few weeks.

Works at least with linux … haven’t tried OSX or win. Needs: numpy, scipy, matplotlib, npyscreen (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/npyscreen/), pyrtlsdr (https://github.com/roger-/pyrtlsdr/releases [use the old release, new code python 3 only])

start with:

python peekSDR.py -d (in one window to start database) python peekSDR.py -vr (in one window to start radio scanning) python peekSDR.py -g (in one window to start user interface)

[can be run on different computers as long as you have the same filesystem and stand in the same directory]

in the user interface “f” plots ffts of recorded signals. “1” starts gqrx with the recorded signal.
