hupRF/SDR kits PAT installed and it *seems* to work. Just need to get my head around driving the rtlsdr properly, and then finally think about a Raspberry Pi.

Really tempted to get a decent SDR at some point... also surgery on my only proper rig scares me! Time for a drink. mastodon.radio/media/PhMNcTrzD

@m0puh Agree about the scary bit. Getting the power wire soldered to one end of a resistor was scary.

@g0fcu I bet! I had to attach the input wire to one of the pins on a tiny SMD diode. If anything goes wrong it'll probably be related to that.
