looking for new receiver
Posted: Wed Sep 15, 2021 8:10 pm
Hello All,
I use Console since long time with SDRPlay devices (RSP1 and RSP2) with (almost) full satisfaction, apart the well know problems (ghosting, etc).
One of the big problem is the restriction to 8 - 10 MHz bandwith that can be received at a time.
For example, it's impossible to listen to the complete air-band (118 - 136 MHz) and set different receivers around the whole band.
So, question: if you would like to buy a better RX device (more or less same $$$) what would it be ? What's the best choice nowadays for general purpose RX ?
I read something about RX666 / RX888 and direct sampling for 0-30 MHz, but what about on higher bands ?
Could you please advice a solution and why ?
Thank you very much, Pietro @ hb9rxc
