Many of the transmissions sent over the radio spectrum can
be decoded with a relatively cheap hardware dongle. Thomas Eckert presented at
RustConf 2026 in Montreal about his hobby:
decoding radio transmissions with Rust.
In his presentation, he
covered all of the math necessary to get started with
software-defined radio,
and gave demonstrations of listening to AM and FM radio, as well as decoding transmissions from
aircraft transponders. His slides and example code are
available on GitHub.
