Hi all,
New to HAM as a hobby. Long time user of UHF, VHF marine, and military comms. Looking to broaden my interest in radio. With the dying of my Uniden UHF radio in my 4x4 I am looking at purchasing an Icom ID-5100A for mobile comms. Ordered my copy of the foundation manual from WIA.
At home I am playing with SDR at the moment. Any users here of SDR? Don't really seem to have any success listening to anything other than FM radio.
I have a NooElec R820T2 SDR mated to a Diamond D-130 discone antenna.
Any pointers on where to go to learn?
