I just picked up a pi, and intend to use it for ADSB and general reception. Idea is to convert from RF to TCP as close to the antenna as possible. My plan is to mount all of this at the top of the chimney.

See http://zr6aic.blogspot.com/2013/02/setting-up-my-raspberry-pi-as-sdr-server.html for someone else's work on getting things set up.

Awesome idea!

Its a dongle. Ranges from around 30-50mhz on the low side and 1.7ghz on the high side.

Just google "Reltek SDR" There is a ton of info out there.

I completely understand.
Most of the hams around here refuse to spend any money on equipment or put in another analog repeater that just sits in silence...

We have a few new "young" hams that are more interested in the hobby. So hopefully that will help things around here.

I have a Pi but have not used it for ham stuff yet.

I did talk to a guy via D-Star that was using one as a hot spot.

I have actually never done digital HF. I think I would be a fan tho.

Thank you both, Matt & Jonathan.  I've made my purchase and I've moved in a slightly different direction - even still, though, your replies, ideas, and suggestions were greatly appreciated! Thanks again!
