That is a genuine question BTW. I'm genuinely confused. (I refuse to own a smartphone which tells you all you need to know about my relationship with technology).

Aye, of course..
I did blog posts on them over 10 years ago...
Originally used for watching TV to your computer but someone 'found' they could rewrite the software and use them for monitoring the radio spectrum..
Read HERE
I have various dongles but use this for general use HERE
to give you an idea of how they have kinda revolutionised radio listening, the plane websites where you can see where planes are presently flying over you or in the sky?
the dongle along with other software is the main supplier of the live info uploaded by many folk...
(I have spent more than a few quid on them)
Radio is my main hobby..
cycling and winding everyone up is secondary

I'll have to sit down and read the lot, links an'all. If I should disappear, then "they've" caught me, or much more likely, I'm busy tinkering with some new toys.
Either way, I'll hold you responsible!!
