WIP TEXT BELOW...
I'd like to give a big thanks to the contributors that helped out with all the changes in this release! Big shout-outs to @argilo, @ke5gdb, @snh, @bddvlpr, and of course @rs1729 !
The big change this release is the addition of full support for ka9q-radio server! This provides a fully open-source way that stations can decode every sonde in their receive passband at once, with much less CPU usage than Spyserver. This has been a long time coming, and I'd really like to thank @ke5gdb, @argilo , and of course @ka9q for making this possible!
Right now we can support operation with ka9q-radio using Airspy Mini and Airspy R2 SDRs. It's now possible to monitor the entire radiosonde band with an Airspy R2 and a RPi 4, and monitor most of the band (5 MHz of it) with an AIrspy Mini.
Support for using RTLSDRs may come in the future, though we really recommend using a wide-band SDR like the Airspy.
Check out the KA9Q-Radio Setup Notes wiki page for more information.
