You could use a Pi with an RTL2832 USB SDR running Raspian with the librtlsdr library installed. Then you can just execute rlt_fm (with the -M option for AM mode) and process the output with a custom audio processing software to detect the microphone clicks. You could use a multitude of methods to activate the requested systems, including GPIO, USB, Eithernet, or any combination of them. For the custom audio processing software, I suggest looking at GNU Radio as a source for examples. You could probably kludge something together fairly quickly.
PM me if you need any help. Sounds like a fun project.

So, from a software standpoint, is it literally just "plugging in" another RTL-SDR radio, and the software sees it? I guess what I'm looking for is, what are the configuration steps necessary to utilize a second radio on 1090?
EDIT: and is this the micro you're talking about?

Right now i have a NooElec NESDR Nano 2+ in there. I started with a different model that is no longer listed on Amazon, but I think it was a popular model 2-3 years ago when i purchased it.
Anyone used the Nano 2+?
This setup contains the following:
Note that the stock Nano2+ antenna dongles are too long for the box. I have ordered DMURRY14's antennas from Amazon which have the right-angle cables that shouldn't have this problem: http://www.amazon.com/ADS-B-High-Gain-Antenna-FULL/dp/B01EJUM83S
Just wanted to share for anyone using this Acrylic box.
