[Scan-DC] HAM radio feeds

[Lawrence Whetzel-Katz]

Hi Greg,

I agree that it would be nice to have some more local coverage. With the
RTL-SDR compatible dongles available for between $10 and $20, people
wouldn't have to dedicate a scanner to it.

I would sitting here thinking about how those non-hams and hams alike could
monitor 2 meters and 440 or greater, maybe even HF and how that might
entice future radio ops in the era of cell phones and access points. Yes I
know Broadcastify has feeds but how many does the Baltimore-Wash area have
as compared to say California which has around 50?  Seeing as how it would
be fairly easy to do. Yes I know the dearth of talk nowadays on 2 meters
only really occurs during events like MCM or George Washington's birthday
etc but still, some MD machines get fairly good use around here. I for one
would not mind listening to this and or a good HF feed without having to
use Hamsphere or such. What with the latest Cubesat being sent up by TJ HS
and 437.320 being the down-link, would be cool to stream this as well even
if just telemetry you could decode on your PC. Just a thought.
