This is project using the Raspberry Pi and the Dongle. I've been thinking of how I could stream audio
online without tieing up a "real" computer. I've been streaming Military Aviation Communications audio
for years. But sometimes I don't like streaming from the computer that I do "real" work on, this got me
thinking of a new project for the Raspberry Pi computer. At this time the project isn't complete but
it is just to prove the concept that it will work. This project is no more than me experimenting with
the Raspberry Pi and Linux style of operating system, both new to me.
Some applications for this type of setup would be to mount this very small dongle/Raspberry system
at the antenna to avoid coax losses. It would be great if powered from a battery/solar panel. You
could set one at your Ham Radio repeater site and stream the repeaters audio online. Put one at
your friends house if he lives close to something you would like to monitor but you're too far
away for a good signal....The possibilities are endless. Please if you think of some good
uses share them with me....
If you don't have any experience using the Raspberry Pi computer you first need to see my
article Raspberry Pi - Getting It Ready for Neat Scanner Projects. That
article will guide you through installing an operating system, setting up the networking, and getting
the Raspberry Pi computer and Dongle to talk to each other.

As a first test I installed and confirgured the required software on the Raspberry Pi computer. I then tuned
the SDR Dongle to a NOAA weather radio frequency (162.400 MHz), and using ezstream and lame software
I had the Raspberry Pi stream the audio to an Icecast 2 server via a wifi link. Since I now can get audio
from the Raspberry Pi to Icecast, this means I could stream scanner audio to any web service that accepts
Icecast such as LiveATC.net
