## Description

RTL-SDR Blog V3 R860 RTL2832U 1PPM TCXO HF Bias Tee SMA Software Defined Radio with Dipole Antenna Kit : desertcart.in: Electronics

Review: Good and genuine rtl-sdr - It is priced well considering custom clearances needed to be done and it was hassle free. It showed up like any other desertcart product and after careful verification from rtl-sdr to the best of my abilities, I do believe this is the genuine rtl-sdr. I have kept the dipole antenna outside for about a week in rain and I had bit of rust near the pivot point but nothing major.
Review: Good product for radio enthusiast - I bought this mainly for the purpose of flight tracking (ADS-B). I started using this dongle from last month. More than 3500 aircraft data is uploaded to the server with my small setup. I am using home made antenna. I think I can improve its range if I use a professional antenna properly. However I am happy with the product. I am using it 24x7 except there was three outage for few hours totally. its working well.

## Features

- Includes 1x RTL-SDR Blog V3 R860 RTL2832U 1PPM TCXO HF Bias Tee SMA Dongle and 1x Multipurpose Dipole Antenna Kit

- Comes with our portable VHF/UHF dipole antenna kit. Great for beginners as it allows for terrestrial and satellite reception. Easy to mount outdoors and designed for portable and temporary outside usage. Please do not use outside during poor weather conditions. Not suitable for HF reception.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this work with Rf signals?**
A: Yes it is for receiving RF signals. Range is about 500 kHz - 1.7 GHz

**Q: Are you able to listen to digital communications with this?**
A: When antenna shopping you may want to keep in mind that there is no such thing as a digital antenna. Adding 'digital' to 'antenna' adds money to price, nothing more.

**Q: How does this compare to the nooelec txco receiver (amazon.com/dp/b00vz1awqa)?**
A: In addition to the previous answers, this one goes down to 400 kHz, vs 25 MHz for the other recievers.

**Q: Do you need Internet to run and operate the software. Can I run it while mobile without Internet?**
A: Once downloaded, no internet connection is needed to run commonly used software like SDR#.
