From playing around today with a standard radio and external interface then swiping over to a AirSpy Mini, SDR# VB Audio Cable and UI-VIEW

I have a gut feeling the SDR solution is going to win just based on the local beacon on 432.440 and what I am seeing in the HS sound modem waterfall

I have parked the SDR setup on FalconSat and see what we get 

It might be a matter of a Hot SDR doppler corrected and inbuilt sound card modem in the PC 

We will see
