Outstanding

I purchased this recently and it has met my expectations. Installation of the SDRUno software was easy and straight forward. I hooked the antenna A to a MFJ-1886 TR Loop, and Antenna B to a MFJ-1886 Discone. The service I received from Radioworld was top notch and I highly recommend this SDR Receiver.

Gateway to SWL

I have been a fan of SDR's and spectrum displays from the time they first came out. This receiver is by far the best bang for the buck, I can't stress how excellent this SDR is. I run this with SDRuno and SDR-console and it has been flawless (both are free for download). Antenna is a 135' EFD and the receive is excellent, on par with my Tentec and Elecraft transceivers. Does not come with a USB-A to USB-B cable, so you need to find your own. Has 3 antenna inputs and USB. Handles VLF wonderfully with it's HDR mode. The software does handle the RF gain a bit differently then a typical transceiver and the software takes time to fully comprehend, interfaces nicely with various decode programs. There is not much you can't do with this receiver and have noted no in shack interference. A fun rig to play with yet, can do some serious short wave listening.

Amazing value, great receiver.

If you have never used a decent radio before, or have very low comfort level with computers, this is probably not a good choice. You wouldn’t learn to drive on a formula one race car. If the signal is out there this will hear it. Be aware that it’s only as good as the antenna it’s connected to and the RF noise level in your location. You can, however, be comfortable that it’s not the receiver that will limit your enjoyment. Lots of choices for software if you don’t like SDRuno, try SDR Console or HDsdr. That’s the beauty of software defined radio. This isn’t a cheap TV tuner “dongle” repurposed to become a radio, it’s a well designed and finely built piece of gear that works very well. Virtually every mode can be received and decoded from long wave to satellites. Highly recommend this receiver!

API and compatibility issues

Every time I want to use the radio I have to reinstall the API, SDRPlay could not find why. Also not compatible with most SDR sw out there.
Admin response: This would be an issue with your particular setup, unfortunately. We use them here and have sold hundreds, with no issues. If this persists, please contact our service department. There are also numerous additional software packages available, however some of the competitors software will not work, for obvious reasons.
