Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Don't hold your breath on this product.? AirSpy announced a while ago that their current manufacturer would not be making the Ranger and they were looking for someone

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Of all the SDR FW apps, I like SDR# and SDR Console the best. As I've recently stated, I have a MAJOR aversion to the screen clutter of SDRUNO!! SDR Console is a bit kinder to your processor. Dave -

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
A very odd stopping point, wondering why it didn't go to the Amateur/ISDM band at 2.4 GHz, and at least cover one more band that's a pretty big deal in both the consumer, and amateur world? 1.75 is

Re: LZ1AQ amp With 2SC3357
Thanks for replying. Always good when simulations match measurements! I have since tested the same circuit with BFU590QX, and they perform about the same. So we have three transistors that perform

Re: LZ1AQ amp With 2SC3357
My simulation results mirror your experimental(??) findings. There is negligible IP3 & frequency response differences between 2SC5551 and 2SC3357. I used the circuit model that I previously developed

LZ1AQ possible changes
Hello everyone, a while ago there was a discussion in a german forum where forum member ArnoR proposed modifications to the original LZ1AQ circuit. The modifications seemed plausible to me but as an

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Yup - HF+ & SDRC combo is very nice. I bought my Airspy HF+ used for $100 but they do go on sale during the year, especially Black Friday. If you go the HF+ route, note there is a fairly recent F/W

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Likewise - paired with SDRConsole or SDR#. I personally prefer SDRC. Noel.

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
I fully agree. Very sensitive, amazingly good large signal performance at low cost. Best bang for the buck. New Airspy Ranger with extended receiving range from VLF to 1.75 GHz coming soon. I do not

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Good evening I would recommend Airspy HF+ Discovery which has a good performance/price ratio. For SDR software try SDR++. It is a multi-platform project (Windows, Linux and more) that supports a lot

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
I like my *Airspy HF+ Discovery* very much. It covers the HF ham bands, except 6m, which is fine by me, at least for now. Software... SDR#, SDR++, SDR Console, SDR-uno, HDSDR, each have their

LZ1AQ Amp w/BFU590QX
Just tested the LZ1AQ amp with BFU590QX.? Performance equivalent to the 2SC5551. As with the 2SC3357, the max voltages are lower for the BFU590 than for the 2SC5551. However, just like with the

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Hello Mike SDR Console offers lots of facilities such as timed recordings that the standard G31 Excalibur software doesn't. Are you also aware that there was an "under the table" dll (that's the

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Thanks to all who offered suggestions and thought-provoking questions.? Based on those comments it seems like AirSpy or SDR_Play would be good bets, mainly due to their not needing an upconverter for

Re: LZ1AQ amp With 2SC3357
Let's not step into "non-Foster" antennas. Heads might explode. Interesting section on loop antennas in Walter H Carlton's, Traveling Wave Antennas? on page 58. Jim/VEZ On Saturday, February 8,

I was not aware of that. Thanks for letting me know. I have downloaded SDR Console and it looks interesting. -- =================================================================== Mike M

Hello Mike Are you not aware that you can use Simon Brown's SDR Console with your Winradio Excalibur? 73s Tracey G5VU

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
I started with the dongles. They're "OK" but there is better. However, there is a problem with those and most of the more expensive SDRs in that they do not cover HF at all. You need to buy an

Re: Entry Level SDR recommendations
Good afternoon Roger, I noticed you made a comment regarding not to purchase a USB dongle because it has something to do with MW reception. I too have the RSP -1B. The RSP-1B requires a USB cable

You might want to think about what is important to you and what applies to your situation. Here are some things: Do you want to record or just listen live? There are differences in the span that can
