[600MRG] Compact JT9 monitor?

Recently I've been monitoring JT9 on 630m with an Airspy HF+ SDR and 
Windows 7 PC running SDR Console and WSJT-X. This has been working well, 
and WSJT-X has been forwarding spots to PSK Reporter without any issues.

I'd like to divert the Windows 7 PC for another purpose, so I'm 
interested in putting together a more compact setup as a JT9 monitor. To 
monitor FT8 on other bands, I've read that some people have used SDRs 
with a Raspberry Pi running SDR control software such as Linrad along 
with WSJT-X, but the setup/configuration can be fairly involved. Has 
anyone run a JT9 monitor using an RPi or similar compact system? I have 
a couple of Red Pitaya SDRs that I use for self-contained 
monitoring/reporting of WSPR on 2200m/630m, and FT8 on HF, but to the 
best of my knowledge no one has yet written software to enable them to 
monitor JT9 traffic.

Thanks for any ideas,

Frank K6FOD
