I'm new to radio but I was mountain biking to a nearby summit so I brought my SDR and it picks up so much more activity from up here. These things are a great excuse for some exercise!Sep 2021 ⋅ GotMapStillLost ⋅ r/RTLSDR
What could this signal be and how could I decode it? Captured it with SDR++ using a simple thin wire sticking out of my RTL-SDR's SMA connector because my antenna hasn't arrived yet. I'm in Central Europe and my guess is that it's Digital Television... Thanks in advance!May 2021 ⋅ Jurica1306 ⋅ r/RTLSDR

TRANSIT-5B-5 (NNSS-30020, OPS-6582) launched 1963 was Luckily spotted this morning while I was recording Meteor-MN2 Weather Satellite. I spotted a weird signal on the left side of my screen.

+DMR control channel on 162.360MHz, eastern Canada. It may be related to Weatheradio Canada (NOAA for Americans). Any thoughts?
