Small world!  I’m working on my masters at the Colorado Springs campus in remote sensing.  Although, I’m waiting to see how the Near Space agreement works out with the Air Force, the bistatic radar seems like a good second choice (or combo) for an area of research.  I do work in GPS for G

We have been doing bistatic radar (technical term for passive radar) using GPS signals. There are of course other signals out there that are useful for bistatic radar, and that is my primary reason for interest in gnuradio modules and the USRP/dbsrx. Our bistatic radar work is for remote sensing
