Seeing all sorts of traffic. Nothing military in this screen-shot - have the cloaking device running for now:
Now all I need is to integrate the Vessel Tracking network and I'll be all set:
The radio service is called AIS (Automatic Identification System) and there are some receivers out there but they are for commercial maratime and yacht use and priced accordingly. My ADS-B receiver was under $30 with sales tax and shipping included. Looking around to see if there are any SDR/Raspberry Pi scripts - I have a couple extra Pi's (older versions) and two or three SDRs I have been using for Ham Radio services.
Found this one - I'll keep looking though - it just receives the signal and outputs an NMEA code string. Looking for something that can integrate with a chart.
What can I say - I want it all. Now 💩
