I am looking at this

and looking especially at the VHF #ACARS on 130 MHz +/- and the HF ACARS. I have an RTL-SDR tuner free to experiment with for VHF, but it looks like

doesn't (yet?) support my Airspy HF+ SDR, so that will have to wait a little.

Probably will experiment on my MacBook Air M1 first, then some SBC of some kind if I run in 24x7.

#introduction

I'm a ham radio operator (W8EMV) located near #KARB , grid #EN82dg . My general purpose ham radio stuff is at @w8emv .

I run an #ADSB tracker feeding @ADSBexchange and another service, using a Pi 3 as the host. My #1090MHz antenna is not very good, and I hope to be able to get better coverage with some antenna work.

Favorite craft to track is #N3A #A31AA0 "Wingfoot Three", particularly when it's over Michigan Stadium for a Wolverines game.
