🎫 Radio Callsign

A radio callsign is an assigned identifier for a transmitting station across aviation ATC, amateur, maritime, and military services. It matters for SIGINT and movement tracking: resolving callsigns to operators, identifying military or state units, and correlating intercepted radio traffic to real-world assets.

Format: Aviation ATC telephony (airline word + number, e.g. 'SPEEDBIRD 123') or ADS-B flight-id field; amateur/ITU-prefixed (e.g. 'W1AW', 'G0ABC'); maritime MMSI-linked call sign; military tactical callsigns

📡 How it is collected

• ADS-B Mode-S flight-id / callsign field
• VHF/HF SDR intercept
• LiveATC audio feeds
• APRS packet capture
• Amateur radio logbooks
• AIS maritime broadcasts
