No hay mucho que se hablar, el modulo funciona muy bien, lo único es que si piensas en dedicarte a esto es mejor hacerte una antena loop o otro tipo, o comprar una antena, las antenas que se envían con el modulo son buenas para un inicio, pero luego se da cuenta que necesita una antena mas grande y en un sitio con bastante visada para obtener resultados buenos, en la onda de 10mts he podido oir personas en Portugal desde Barcelona con una antena hecha a mano.

Worked for a bit...then failed to work on Windows...I typically think software fault first (esp. Microsoft), but after trying just about everything on Windows (incl. multiple driver/zadig and SDR# reinstallations), and similar on a Linux OS distro, I've deduced that this device has failed....so much time lost in frustration. The sad part is that it worked at first, then I didn't use it for a year or so, but I'm getting back into the hobby, only to be smacked in the face of the failure of this device.

There is NO lacking in Build quality. They even supply a strong and thick coax for there antenna, which is also not cheaply built!!! VERY WORTH THE PRICE. actually, if I sold this specific one I would charge more. The SDR dongle it self is AMAZING. paired with the supplied antenna and you have a high value sdr. I'm about to buy another one. There is nothing cheap about this set up. Good to know a company still cared about QUALITY. that's rare these days. I'm hard to impress and that's no BS.

I have always loved radio and this is one cool little radio! After the setup, which was very quick and easy, it works like a charm. I'm a ham operator so it's fun to be able to listen around the bands and be able to "see the signals" on the SDR software. This dongle has worked with all the software I've tried. Gqrx is my favorite so far, but CubicSDR is very nice too! I use Linux most of the time so I've not tried any other SDR software. It does get pretty warm while using it...but the aluminum casing does a good job of shedding the heat. An outdoor antenna works best but the included antennas work fine. I can recommend it! Kudos Nooelec...good job!

After connecting the original dongle I received to a Ubuntu Linux machine and running it for about 3 minutes, it seems to have died. The machine could no longer detect the usb device. I had tried to see if I can access it from another machine, and no go.NooElec has been extremely proactive about helping me resolve the issue with the first dongle I received. After performing some troubleshooting, NooElec determined the original device was defective and immediately sent a new device. If you're looking for an SDR device, NooElec is the way to go.

*** UPDATE October 6, 2018 ***The replacement unit arrived and, so far, is working great.*** UPDATE September 30, 2018 ***My original review is below. After just 24 hours of use, the unit is causing problems. It keeps dying and hanging my computer. I called customer support and a return/refund is underway. I'm not yet giving up on this unit ... I have just repurchased, so we'll see how the replacement holds up!My advice for anyone purchasing this device is to run it continuously for the first 24-48 hours (... just turn the volume down!) If there are going to be any hardware problems with your particular unit, they are likely to appear during this time and you can then simply do a return through Amazon._______________________________________________________________________________I really just wanted stereo FM radio capability on my PC, so this purchase may have been a little overboard, for me. I do like not having to have a regular FM radio for entertainment! I also have a BT transmitter attached to my PC, so being able to transmit to the speakers in my kitchen is very handy.After following the instructions, the device installed OK and was recognized by my Windows 7 PC. I settled on the SDR# (SDR Sharp) software. It can be a little overwhelming to someone not really into the hobbyist side of radio / SDR, as there are a lot of options. I fumbled through and managed to understand the features I wanted to use and reception is good where I am. (I'm actually using one of those square HDTV antennas with an adaptor on the cable).SDR Sharp does not actually need to be "installed" on your computer, so it does not add anything to the Windows Registry. You just need a folder in which to unzip the software, then you add the DLL file for this specific device.The user guide is sketchy and appears aimed at the radio enthusiast. The function of each of the options (the drop-downs, check boxes and buttons) on the interface screen should be explained. Also, there should be a way to minimalize the screen ... to remove the rolling graphic display, which would probably mostly not be needed for normal usage.This unit gets hot when you have the software running and are receiving a signal. I have mine suspended by cable in mid-air. You would do best to run these units via an extension USB cable, just to keep the heat away from your computer's case and also, don't use these in an enclosed cabinet or place them on furniture for the same reason.One of my Windows 7 updates knocked out the driver, so I had to re-install - something to keep in mind if you do a Windows update and your unit suddenly stops working.I would recommend this unit to others, with just one reservation ... you'll need to hunt for things and if you are not a little computer-savvy, you might have issues getting the device to work on your computer.

Very nice SDR. One thing I noticed regarding other SDR devices comments, is how warm or hot these can get. This model does get warm, but not hot, even with use over 3 hours. I believe this is because of the new heat sink configuration inside the SDR USB. After purchase, the company sent me a link to their web site with very good instructions to install the required drivers and software, which was very easy to do, once my SDR arrived. Their web page also has several SDR software packages that can be downloaded, but I prefer SDR#. Very good reception on most bands, including HAM, air, law enforcement, CB, etc. and of course FM. Antennas work well and even better with ground plane. The antenna base is magnetic and I highly recommend putting antenna on something metallic (i.e. steel) such as a cookie sheet or something like that, this will greatly improve reception of the frequencies.
