The Boondock Echo is basically a radio answering machine, letting you record and play back received audio. It has some other neat features like speech to text, keyword alerts, and transmit options as well.
This video was just a quick test of the latest Boondock version. This one has some features that I suggested, as well as things people suggested in teh comments from my prior video! Namely, it has more off-grid and offline features, and can be used without an internet connection or cloud tethering.
While I didn't test every feature, I found a couple more use cases for this tech. First, for unattended monitoring of an unknown frequency (in this case, a supposed ham repeater from 2012) to see if and what traffic is there. Second, to record and keyword-search a large amount of radio traffic, like from a police / fire scanner. If you're a reporter looking for newsworthy keywords on radio traffic, or want to keep an eye out for a certain name or address in scanner traffic, this could be a way to do it.
Thanks again to the Boondock Echo team for sending me one to try out!
