Another crowdsource question: anyone here ever try SigDigger?

It looks a bit like what I've always wanted GQRX to be: nice interface with a lot of backend signal-analysis stuff behind a nice interface. (I like GQRX but the number of modulation schemes it supports is sadly extremely minimal.)

Thinking about messing around with it this weekend, although realistically the weekends seem to be disappearing too quickly recently.

I found this on an online auction site and was wondering if any of my #hamradio contacts has had any experience with #plutoplus SDR. 2 channels, TCXO, PTT port... sounds like everything the original #plutosdr was meant to be. Also, at advertised price of just over $300 it is very tempting.

@paladin1 After playing with the #PlutoSDR for a few days, some thoughts:

- It's not a great weak-signal rxvr. Not terrible, but any decent #HamRadio QRP rig is prob better. But I got this to play with weird digital modes, so I can live with that.
- Overall design is 👍. The device presents to the host as USB Storage, USB-Ethernet dongle for IP, *and* a USB-Serial for console. F/W updates trivial. Drivers work well.
- USB 2 is the bottleneck, not the ADC. USB 3 would be awesome.

Last night's first-run experiments with the #PlutoSDR seemed pretty successful, given that I was using a decade-old laptop, in a basement, with a 1" antenna on the receive side of the #SDR.

Today it's time to see what signals it can pull in, using a somewhat less-trivial configuration. (Decent desktop computer, 36" whip.)

Eventually I'll get it hooked up to my attic J-pole, but that involves climbing under a desk and I'm lazy. So the mag-mount whip it is.

@paladin1 Very cool.

Will be pretty interested to hear how it stacks up against the HackRF for sure. I've also heard that the #PlutoSDR was good when it first came out, but not much recently.
