Always-On SDR: Building a Multi-Band Radio Intelligence Platform on Kubernetes

Always-On SDR: Building a Multi-Band Radio Intelligence Platform on Kubernetes I have been quietly building something i am pretty excited about. The idea started simple enough: i wanted a permanent, always-on radio monitor for 2m. It grew into something considerably larger. Today the stack covers 2m, 70cm, and the full HF spectrum from 3–28 MHz simultaneously: recording, decoding, transcribing, and tagging everything it hears, around the clock, with no manual intervention....

OpenHamClock on Kubernetes

Running OpenHamClock on Kubernetes (RKE2 and ArgoCD) In this tutorial, I will walk through my Kubernetes version of running OpenHamClock in my homelab. In this setup, everything is defined in YAML, committed to Git, and synced to the cluster by ArgoCD. Access is handled by NGINX Ingress with TLS from cert-manager, which is how I publish it at hamclock.w3rdw.radio. If you want to follow my exact layout, use my RKE2 GitHub project....

In this setup, everything is defined in YAML and deployed via ArgoCD, and changes are tracked in Git and synced automatically to the cluster. Access is handled through an NGINX Ingress with TLS from cert‑manager, which is how I publish the ADS‑B UI at adsb....
