Awiz13, very glad we figured that one out -- we had loads of project for you, but they were hidden!
Excellent! Thanks, really glad you're enjoying it Kabaju42!

Re: Adabox 007
Is the Hackerspace magazine included every month or just this month?

Re: Adabox 007
Trying out the SDR in Adabox007, I couldn't pick up any signals. I took off the tiny antenna it ships with and screwed on a longer telescoping antenna... and just barely picked out enough weather radio signal to tell it was there, to hear scraps of voice from just 5 miles away. On FM broadcast band, I couldn't pick out our local 100KW station from 12 miles away. I have no trouble picking up either of these transmissions on another RTL-SDR I bought a couple months ago. I would have tried swapping antenna cables but one is SMA and the other is not.

Re: Adabox 007
That sounds strange. The first thing I'd do is double check settings in the SDR software you're using -- that 100kW station ought to be pretty strong with or without the antenna.
