I have used a few of the rtl based dongles over the past couple years, I also own a Funcube Pro+. This is the best performing device of it's type I've used other then the Funcube which was $200.00. The only thing the Funcube does better is out of band rejection because it has switched filters and the low frequencies. I really like the band width and the metal housing seems to reduce the number of spurs also helps with heat dissipation. All in all a great value.

Any illusion that this SDR would replace a dedicated communications radio, should be put to rest. Yes, the very low cost is attractive, but just understand that there's a reason why a good receiver costs many hundreds of dollars. For the curious, the RTL-SDR dongle is a nice place to start, plus there's several FREE software SDR programs out there that do a nice job. The most important thing that must be understood, it that these SDR's perform well, but MUST be paired with a good quality OUTSIDE antenna(s) to get its full potential (as limited as it may be) realized. Recommended for a first and (relatively) inexpensive step into the radio hobby.

If you want a good reception using this dongle, invest in your antenna. For me, a long wire antenna is the secret to receive all sort of signals, from HF, VHF, UHF, FM, AM, hamradio, broacasting, police, firesquad, aviation, acars, ADS-B, satellites, etc. I use the RTL-SDR V3 with SDR Sharp program in my PC. It is easy to install and configure. All information is available on internet.

i was very pleased how well this worked and the ham bands it covered set up wasn't easy but also not hard. learning to use it was harder but the user guide was helpful once mastered it will be a very useful item as the yanks put it bangs per buck i would recomend it to anyone with a interest in radio.

I bought 3 of these devices. Enclosed in an aluminum case they are very stable and are used for a local P25 trucked system and for aircraft plotting. They run off an internal window antenna since I live in an apartment and d well. These are far better than the early SDR dongles that needed offests set in the software. If you want to experiment with SDR (software defined radio) this is the SDR to purchase!
