Citizen Science

This project offers an opportunity for everyone to contribute as a scientist. To effectively manage the radio spectrum for the benefit of all, it is essential to understand the geographic locations and times of day when radio frequency bands are in use. Participation requires only an Android smartphone or an RTL-SDR dongle. You can sign up for a free RTL-SDR dongle by clicking here.

The webpage linked here provides detailed instructions for various activities that enable participants to collect data on radio frequency usage. This data will be invaluable in enhancing our understanding of how the radio spectrum is utilized in your area.
