While I am using these at a radio observatory, I am not using these as 
radiometer in the research sense.  I'm building up a public-facing 
interface that will answer two of our most common questions:
1.) What is that dish looking at (even if there's no observation going on)?
2.) What is the signal that just overwhelmed the research-grade 
backend?  For this I need something akin to a spectrum analyzer, and 
while we have those available I want a simple tunable frontend where the 
engineers on site can have a quick look at the spectrum, tuning around 
and watching live data in real-time (and listening to it, even).  
ShinySDR does this; your own multimode.py also does this, and this is 
the reason the C2's will be inline each each and every RF chain on 
site.  An 'RFI Sniffer' box permanently installed into the RF chain.
