Thank u for Seller services

Funcionou perfeitamente

Funciona muy bien aunque si es muy necesaria una buena antena al exterior,

Working great so far although its not exactly "plug and play" (which I expected) .. I'm using a Pi3 with the PI-SDR image. Works great with SDR++ on the image. The one issue I'm having is not being able to pickup AM broadcast bands. I suspect thats antenna related but not sure yet. This has been fun to play around with. Not allot going in my area with uv- vf so cant comment on that yet. I have a MLA-30+ antenna coming soon. Will update here more after that. I can say its definitely an improvement over ver 3 just because of the increased coverage. Looking forward to installing on a android tablet . Update - works great. Overall .. these are cludgy to use compared to a dedicated radio, but fun and allow you to learn and experiment with several spectrums of RF. I was finally able to get AM but ended up installing and using on a Win11 machine. You will probably want to set up multiple antennas to use with one of these. The MLA 30+ works great on HF and lower bands but truly doesnt perform well at all above 30 MHz (expected). For that I'm going to try a simple setup with a DPDT switch and use a long wire (by long I mean about 15 feet strung along the floor). The ability to go lower in the bands makes this a worthwhile purchase. I never went the route of the upconverter before because of the added cost and hassle . Plenty to experiment with and learn. Now that I feel like I have the antenna situation addressed and have a baseline I can start tweaking the software and bookmarking stations. Nice to have good sounding stereo FM radio available on my PC setup as well. I still have a couple things I want to try - like going portable in the camper, completing a comparison of SD# and SD++, things like that. This thing will keep me busy for a while.

Maybe nice for some other frequencies, but doesn't want to pick up anything around 868mhz, so avoid if you're using it for FLARM etc.

SO COOL> what more can i say- if you are buying one of these you probably did your research. This works great - i have purchased two different antennas to go with it. It's important that you have the correct antennas for this to work well. Highly recommend using the programs SDR++ Cubic sdr or GQRX with it. There are many programs to choose. SDR++ has been working the best for my FM stuff. GQRX is harder to use but has lots of parameters. Cubic kind of splits the difference. Anyhow everything is easy enough to instuall and this dongle Works great. Super nerdy- Lots of blogs and instructions out there for this thing. Well supported. Also i reached out to the manufacturers with a support question and they got back to me right away. I used this donge with my Mac as well as my Raspberry Pi. Super diverse. Five stars all around.
