Licence of the test recordings

The program is GPL-3.0-or-later (see LICENSE). The recordings are data rather than program, they are not in the repository, and a licence for code says nothing useful about a file of samples, so they are licensed separately here.

Recordings made for this project

CC BY 4.0 (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International). Use them for anything, commercial or not, redistribute them, cut them up and publish what you make, as long as you credit where they came from:

IQ recording by the WaveShark project, https://github.com/v0l/waveshark, CC BY 4.0

Every entry in fixtures.toml and offair.toml carries a license field, and CC-BY-4.0 there means this: recorded, or generated, for this project by its authors.

Two things these recordings contain that the licence does not change. They are recordings of real bands at real places and times, so identities are in them: aircraft registrations, a Meshtastic node named "Kieran" and its position, the hardware addresses of whatever was advertising in the room, the serial of a radiosonde over Sussex. Each manifest entry says which, because that is what makes the capture evidence. Nothing about the licence makes the law of the place you are in stop applying to what is in the recording, and nothing in it is a permission from the people or the transmitters heard.

Recordings that came from somewhere else

Five of the fixtures are not ours. Each carries its own license and a license_source naming where it came from, and the terms are the publisher's, not this project's:

file from terms
acars_acarsdec_12500.wav TLeconte/acarsdec, test.wav LGPL-2.0-only, the licence that repository states
vdl2_model_136.975M_1050k.wav szpajder/dumpvdl2, test/vdl2_model_16b_1050kHz.wav GPL-3.0, the licence that repository states
sstv_martin1_44100.wav colaclanth/sstv, examples/m1.ogg, converted here GPL-3.0, the licence that repository states
dvbt_hd_429M_9142857.cs8 Ron Economos, w6rz.net/adv16.cfile, cut here no terms stated by the publisher
rs41_herstmonceux_405.80024M_31.25k.cs16 SDRangel, sdrangel.org/iq-files, cut here no terms stated by the publisher

The first two are fetched from their own repositories at a pinned commit and are never re-hosted. The last three are: a conversion, a cut and a requantised cut are on nostr.download because the originals are lossy, a gigabyte, or a WAV that needs converting first. Ask the publisher rather than this project if you need terms for those two unstated files.

Neither the rtl_433 corpus (rtl433.toml) nor the LoRa survey dataset (survey.toml) is redistributed here at all: both are fetched from their publisher. The rtl_433 corpus is contributed recordings under no stated licence; the survey dataset is CC BY 4.0 from the Universidade de Vigo, doi 10.5281/zenodo.13835721.
