[Scan-DC] Motus wildlife tracking on 166.38 MHz

[Andrew Clegg]

Thanks Dewey. The other instructions certainly don’t make clear that an actual receiver is needed to make, uh, a receiver.

Someone should make a combined AIS, ACARS, ADS-B, APRS, and Motus receiver. Seems entirely doable with modern DSP. Antennas are a different challenge though.
