If you're using an RTL-SDR, I think you might also want an upconverter (Ham-It-Up) as these inexpensive SDR dongles can't tune below?24MHz. The newer ones can do direct sampling for HF frequencies, but I'm not sure how well it performs.

I was reading about combining a Bitx40 with an SDR dongle here:?
Has anyone else done this mod? Is RG58 or RG-174 to the same area of the case as the antenna a good idea, and can I get away with grounding only the case side and not the C23 or Q1 side??
I was going to use it with an RTL-SDR V3 dongle and a Raspberry Pi, but no idea on software yet.
