Black Cat ALE Vacuum Cleaner 0.3.0
« on: April 12, 2023, 1209 UTC »
Black Cat ALE Vacuum Cleaner 0.3.0 is out. This Windows/macOS app processes I/Q recording files from popular SDR programs, decoding any ALE transmissions found. Now instead of monitoring just one frequency, you can decode from thousands!

This update adds support for callsign information lookup files, to print detailed information next to received callsigns.

You hear that "giant sucking sound?"

I don't STRETCH the truth.

Every minute Charlie squats in the bush, his signal gets stronger."
