Signal ID guide

Looking through the web this evening, I found a signal identification guide. http://www.sigidwiki.com/wiki/Signal_Identification_Guide

One of the great things about SDR is that we can see a lot of different signals - including some that are pretty odd. I though I'd share this with anyone who is curious about what is on the air that isn't what we typically use.

    You pause long enough for the "Skip this Ad" button to appear in upper right.
    When you click [Skip] the download starts immediately and completes quickly.

    The misleading part is that, instead of a 'Download Complete' or other 'Thank You' page you are dumped into another ad page. It appears that there is an endless stream of ads with no indication that the download has even started.

    You will, however, find "Artemis.zip" in your downloads directory.

    Poorly written download mechanism.

    Must be a new thing.. Sorry about the inconvenience, I didn't have a clue it now went into an ad loop. I will stop posting the address until the developer finds a less intrusive approach to advertising. In my opinion, if you want money for your software just charge for it, or let people have it for free and kindly ask for a pledge, like adaware does.

    What a coincidence, I was helping another person track down a signal - pretty tough via personal messaging, but the signal he was looking for turned out to be CODAR. Then I see it here! I'll have to check out the program. Thanks much.

    It's all about the Ad... I have Ad Blocker on and the page would not let me proceed unless I turned it off.  Not my cup of tea...

    Yeah... It sucks. Still, the software is cool. A year or so ago we were discussing this subject here on the forum, that is how I discover this software as well as other things. The awesome thing would be for SmartSDR to recognize modes and signals.

    I'm waiting on my 6500 so perhaps I am premature but.... Since these are SDR... why can't the mode be automatically determined and decoded if desired? Or can it already?

    Certainly software  can be written, It's probably seriously involved though, and not all is amateur radio related of course, with much of it being out of the ham bands. 

    And there are a number of signals we will probably will never have identified, their uses shrouded in government work of various nations.

    N1MM software partially solves the problem by rxid and txid. A short burst transmitted, and received can coordinate between stations, automatically id'ing and either automatically or manually switching modes.
