SDR -> Software Defined Radio -> receiver. You'll need a transmitter too.

Though I'm sure some clever person somewhere hacked one to do just that.

SDR transceivers have been on the market for quite some time; have a look at the HackRF, for instance.

At least Wikipedia says a software defined radio can also include a transmitter. I've seen a couple programmable transceivers, but virtually all of the cheap SDRs are just receivers (usually repurposed TV sticks).

I know that someone at least build a setup where they could record and decode GSM with a reciever, but I can't find it right now.
