Open IP over VHF/UHF #PiDay #Radio #RaspberryPi @Raspberry_Pi

The Rowetel blog discusses sending Internet Protocol (IP) traffic over VHF and UHF radio frequencies.

My initial goal for this work is a “100 kbit/s IP link” for VHF/UHF using Codec 2 modems and SDR. One application is moving Ham Radio data past the 1995-era “9600 bits/s data port” paradigm to real time IP.

I’m also interested in IP over TV Whitespace (spare VHF/UHF spectrum) for emergency and developing world applications. I’m a judge for developing world IT grants and the “last 100km” problem comes up again and again. This solution requires just a Raspberry Pi and RTLSDR. At these frequencies antennas could be simply fabricated from wire (cut for the frequency of operation), and soldered directly to the Pi.

See the article here and the GitHub repo for this project.
