My favorite part of my project was seeing the doppler shift of WWVB during my flight.

@mossmann that was an awesome blog post - and I can't stop thinking how you got away with an antenna up in the window without triggering everyone around you that you weren't malicious or breaking "airplane mode" rules haha

@raineer I did it on two flights, and nobody seemed concerned.

@f4grx Nope. It probably helped that my antenna was small and contained in an enclosure. And I kept the HackRF Pro in the seatback pocket.

@mossmann very cool: measuring < 0.01 Hz changes in an 60 kHz signal from Colorado while flying in a passenger jet is impressive.
