This project will enable anyone with a Raspberry Pi to get a visual representation of Radio Frequencies (RF), using Software Defined Radio (SDR) principles - all this contained in a compressed 8Gb microSD card image, ready to run.

There is Raspberry Pi image for using Realtek based USB Tv tuner as Software Defined Radio scanner. As a bonus - there is a stripped down version of Raspbian before all of the SDR software was installed and configured.

Instructions on how to do it manually are also available.

I only take credit for writing down the instructions, creating and uploading the img files. I modified the original code to make it functional on a wide range of devices, not just a TFT.

The process was tested on a Toshiba laptop first, running debian, then on a Raspberry Pi 2 - from which the images were created.

All other credit is WELL deserved by the original citizens that wrote the software used in this project.
