Introduction
The RTL-SDR is the device that unintentionally delivered SDR, or ‘Software Defined Radio’ to the general public. Designed as a compact TV/FM/DAB tuning device, its chipsets, the RTL2832U and R820T give the device a vast operating frequency range (24 – 1750MHz).
Its budget cost, compact footprint and compatibility with cross-platform SDR platforms – such as GNU Radio make the RTL-SDR the ideal device for starting in the world of SDR.
If you require advanced functionality (TX, wider operating frequency, larger bandwidth, etc) – Lab401 also has the HackRF One and the BladeRF.
The device is delivered with an wide-band antenna and SMA connector. If you get bored listening to the ISS, you can always channel-surf TV with the included remote control.
