I own the original RX-888 and wondered what the differences are between that and the MK2? Basically is it worth the upgrade..

Thanks

Higher sample rate (double) and some added gain control as I remember. I have to get back on making a SourceRX888 dll to sneak in after making it look a little bit like an rtlsdr dongle to SDRC.

In this blog post, you can see Jinze (Justin) Peng's announcement of the MKII, and he outlines the differences.
