Hi Jim, good to see another Kiwi here (i'm in Auckland). Sorry I don't have experience with this particular antenna, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work well. Looks like it's basically just a random wire with 9:1 transformer, but a high quality one. If you can get it into a good position away f...

Might be MPT 1327 or similar https://www.sigidwiki.com/wiki/MPT1327

If you're just decoding it i'd suggest first looking up the FCC ID, or any documentation of the ELT and trying to find out exactly what sort of modulation and encoding scheme the signal uses. Then head into a general receiver program like SDR#, and record a few pulses of the signal. If it's a simple...

This is not a SDR# plugin. This is a GNU-Radio program and has nothing to do with SDR#.

GNU Radio exists on Windows but not all scripts work properly on it, so i'd recommend trying it out on Linux instead to rule out issues.

Interesting, I wonder how the data usage of virtualhere compares with software like rtl_tcp and/or SpyServer? Which one is more efficient.

Do you notice any latency with virtualhere?

Someone made a clone of the wxtoimg website now, check out https://wxtoimgrestored.tk/

Sensitivity of the E4000 is a little better on the lower bands, but is barely noticeable. HB9AJG did some measurements a while ago https://www.rtl-sdr.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Some-Measurements-on-E4000-and-R820-Tuners.pdf. That was written in 2013 with the R820T, and these days the newer R820...

I wouldn't really call E4000 based dongles "premium" models. The only reason E4000 dongles are more expensive is because the chip manufacturer went out of business and so E4000 chips are rare now. The cheaper R820T2 is a technically superior chip and performs better in most areas. The only major adv...

Did you configure SDR-Console with your IF?

I believe that there is an "External Radio" option somewhere in SDR-Console where you can set the IF Output frequency.

You'd probably be best off making a bug report to the SDR Touch dev.
