We audited every line of GopherTrunk — 425k lines of code, 2.7 million words of docs — and priced what it would cost a human team to build. The answer says something bigger about what AI makes viable.
Stuck on a system, IDing a mystery signal, or have a feature in mind? Ask on the forum or swap notes with other operators on Discord and Reddit — questions get answered fast.
GopherTrunk turns a cheap RTL-SDR dongle into a full digital-trunking
scanner — P25, DMR, TETRA, NXDN and more, decoded by one pure-Go static
binary with nothing else to install. Grab the latest build and follow
your first system tonight.
GopherTrunk is free and open source, built in the open by a tiny team. A
GitHub star costs you one click, helps other scanner operators find it, and
keeps the project moving. Would you drop one?
