riluton Software-Defined Radio for Engineers [pdf]

Not really related to the book, but it's only yesterday that I've found out about AirplaneJS [0]. It picks up ADS-B radio signals from airplanes and display them over maps on browser like a local Flightradar. It's nice that you can interact with SDR in Node.js

Do you, HN-friends, know any other toy/simple or advanced applications of SDR?
