Decoding ACARS on VHF with your SDR Radio - Monitoring Aviation Communications Ep 5
This video shows most of the kinds of messages you will receive if you set up an SDR radio to decode ACARS transmissions in the VHF air band.
I used the following 2 SDRs in the making of this video :
RTL-SDR v3 -
NooElec NESDR SMArt -
To see a review of these 2 budget SDRs you can watch my Budget SDR Shootout at
Of course you can use any SDR that covers the VHF airband to decode ACARS transmissions.
The scanner I use most for airband is the Uniden Bearcat BCT15X which you can find at
Software used :
acarsdec -
Black Cat ACARS -
AcarSdeco2 -
