If you're looking for interesting signals to receive, check out:

  * NOAA satellites in the 137MHz range
  * APRS packets on 144.390MHz
  * ISS and other amateur radio satellites around 435MHz

For the satellites, I really like GPredict as it can drive SDR programs.

ISS, TEVEL, SO-50 are often active.

Thanks for this! I am actually just getting into sdr stuff as well and always appreciate any pointers or things like this.

Yeah, the other consistent signals you can get are the Marine VHF and WX stations around 156MHz.

If you're really into programming + RF, check out the M17 codec project.
