    Title : SignalsEverywhere 10,000 Subscriber Interactive Live Stream
    with Giveaways on August 10 12PM EST

    Content : The SignalsEverywhere YouTube channel is quickly
    growing in size, and has recently passed the 10,000 subscriber
    milestone. If you weren't aware, Corrosive (aka KR0SIV aka Harold)
    who runs the channel has been consistently putting out high quality
    videos related to the software defined radio hobby. He's also
    started a podcast which also covers some interesting topics.

    Title : mySdrPlayback: MacOS Software for Browsing Through IQ
    Recordings from SDR#, SDRUno and More

    Content : mySdrPlayback is a program for MacOS that allows you
    to easily browse through IQ recordings created from multiple SDR
    programs. Recently the software's author (@ChrisSmolinski) 

    Title : New LNA + Filter for Radio Astronomy Hydrogen Line
    Observations Released by NooElec

    Content : NooElec have recently released a new LNA + filter combo
    called the "SAWbird+ H1 Barebones" which significantly lowers
    the entry bar for new amateur radio astronomers. It's designed
    to be used with RTL-SDR or other SDRs for radio astronomy, and in
    particular reception of the Hydrogen line.

    Title : An RTL-SDR & SDRplay based WebSDR Designed Specifically
    for QO-100 (Es’Hail-2) Monitoring

    Content : Over on YouTube user [ Radio Electronics ] has uploaded
    a useful video showing how to install your own personal SDRplay or
    RTL-SDR based WebSDR for QO-100 (aka Es'Hail-2) reception. Es'Hail-2
    is the first geostationary satellite with amateur radio transponders
    on board, and is positioned at 25.5┬░E which covers Africa,
    Europe, the Middle East, India, eastern Brazil and the west half
    of Russia/Asia.

    Title : Fenu Radio Reviews the Airspy HF+ Discovery

    Content : The Airspy HF+ Discovery is a smaller, lighter and
    improved version of the Airspy HF+ which is an HF and VHF SDR with
    very high dynamic range. The Discovery builds on the HF+ by adding
    low loss preselectors. This increases the dynamic range even further,
    and allows the Discovery to compete with some very high end (and
    much more expensive) SDRs.

    Title : KerberosSDR App Update: Heatmap + Precise TX Localizing
    & Turn by Turn Navigation Demo Videos

    Content : We have just released an updated version of the
    KerberosSDR Android direction finding app . If you didn't
    already know KerberosSDR is our experimental 4x Coherent RTL-SDR
    product. With it, coherent applications like radio direction finding
    (RDF) and passive radar are possible. Together with the KerberosSDR
    direction finding Android app it is possible to visualize the
    direction finding data produced by a KerberosSDR running on a
    Pi3/Tinkerboard.

    Title : SignalsEverywhere: Creating a DIY Upconverter with a HackRF
    and RF Mixer

    Content : Over on YouTube Corrosive from the SignalsEverywhere
    channel has uploaded a new video showing us how you can make a
    DIY upconverter using a HackRF as a signal source and a cheap $10
    RF Mixer. An upconverter converts lower frequencies into higher
    frequencies. For example, an upconverter is commonly used to convert
    HF signals into VHF, so that VHF/UHF only SDRs can receive HF.

    Title : SignalsEverywhere: Windows 10 usb_open_error -12 Fix

    Content : The process to install an RTL-SDR dongle on Windows
    involves the simple step of running Zadig and installing the generic
    WinUSB drivers to the RTL-SDR, which shows up as "Bulk-In, Interface
    (Interface 0)" in Zadig.
