Der Artikel wurde am Sonntag bestellt und gestern am Montag schon geliefert. Der RTL-SDR Stick von nooelec und die dazugehörigen Antennen sind sehr hochwertig. Damit kann man als Amateurfunker direkt loslegen.

You're going to need a good deal of technical knowledge and some additional software to get the most out of this piece of hardware. I would also HIGHLY recommend buying at least two. For most situations when monitoring/scanning P25 systems, you're going to need one dongle dedicated to monitoring the control channel and another dedicated to listening to channels. It's possible to get something out of one, but you're honestly going to get a lot more use an enjoyment with two or more of these puppies. The higher the traffic on the area you're monitoring and the more dongles you'll need for handling listening to all that traffic.What is good to note is that overall, this thing doesn't get too hot. But there IS a significant amount of power draw, so I'd also recommend considering a powered USB hub. The powered part is important. You can fry the PSU right out of your laptop by running too many of these. Even one may push a laptop past its limit without additional power assistance over a long duration.

The antennas and cabling were a little to poorly made. Since most of these units use open source software, they don't include tyhe software, you need to find it, download it, install it and load the drivers DIY. The problem is that not all the information on the company websites is well written and clearly understandable. Ultimately, the product did not provide enoouogh functionality in my area. About all I could get on it was FM radio. and not the full bandwidth.If I was going to buy another unit -- I returned this one -- I would purchase (and recommend) one that receives Shortwave out of the box. Also, one that featured software available from the manufacturers website that was either specifically adapted/modified to work with the product.Be aware that none of the SDRs offered for less than $100 offer true native ability to recieve shortwave.My star ratings apply to my purchase only. Your mileage may vary.

I'm still learning a lot about radio and this has helped greatly. I'm picking up FM radio just fine. I'm also hearing chatter on popular HAM radio clubs in the aria. I haven't noticed any heating problems, but sometimes the USB drivers for the SDR bug out. Restarting the App fixes this issue though, so not a major problem. Once the drivers load I have no further issues with stability. I can scan the airwaves as much as I'd like.

Requiere de ciertos conocimientos previos y tener ganas de enredar, pero una vez adquirida un poco de destreza es muy divertido ver que hay por ahí. En internet está todo, y resulta algo curioso tener que explicar a alguien que estas esperando a que pase un satélite para obtener una foto atmosférica. Aparte, le he encontrado uso como escáner de frecuencias bastante útil en aplicaciones no convencionales, donde lo equipos al uso están bastante limitados en frecuencia en base a una tarea concreta. Sin embargo, también tiene limitaciones importantes sobretodo en relación señal-ruido, armónicos y recepción de señal en lugares saturados, pero no se puede pedir más por lo que cuesta. El aparato en si esta bien hecho, y la carcasa metálica un plus porque coge temperatura y así disipa algo de calor. Las antenas no son lo mejor, pero sirven para empezar.

Highly recommend over the cheaper and lower performing rtlsdr's on the market. I'm impressed at the accuracy and low noise floor. In the near future, I am going to use this strictly for NOAA / METEOR satellite reception.Using this on OSX, for some reason it performs poorly in GQRX (I could need to update and rebuild) but it performs great in gnu radio and cubicsdr.

This is a royal pain in the ass to install on ubuntu. They don't have their own driver so you have to go find the OSMOCOM RTL-SDR driver and install it. Then the OSMOCOM driver to list the dongle on GNU Radio fails on an NVIDIA driver error. NooElec tech support is worthless, they just push off to someone who supposedly knows what they're doing and doesn't know either. If there was a zero star I'd give it that.
