Review: It works great, IF you can figure out out to use it. - There are people who say this thing doesn't work. Mine works great. I've used it without the up-converter to listen to emergency radios, and local 2meter ham repeater users, NOAA weather, FM radio, FRS radio, etc. I've used it with the up-converter to listen to shortwave radio from Cuba (I'm very far from Cuba), AM radio, and hams on 80, 40, and 20 meter bands talking over 1000 miles away. I've picked up FT8 traffic from half the planet. I did it all on a Linux laptop with some wire in the trash pile (that seems to be really good on 40 meter). BUT. You have to figure out / already know about a lot of radio stuff. The antennas matter. I strung about 10 meters of junk wire to the balun, and i grounded the other wire (no idea if that's the right way). It took me a lot of experimenting with antenna wires and the included antennas to figure out what would work for which band, etc. Nothing in this kit (or on their website) will help you with this. Lots of googling and youtube and pdfs. And you need to know some frequencies to listen around. Also, the software you use makes a huge difference. On linux I tried gqrx, cubicSDR, sdr++, and SigDigger. Not all of them make it clear where to put the -125 MHz when you are using the up-converter. They all have different options and terminology. So you have to play with several software suites to find one you can figure out with the upconverter. Lastly, you are likely to use this SDR kit where your computer is, which is probably bathed in wifi and other sources of interference. that's not really the kit's fault. So if you see someone say "i plugged this thing in and there was nothing but noise" keep in mind it's not that easy. You have to do some work. But I can tell you for sure it CAN work. I use mine all the time. A great way to learn about radio. Review: Fun radio to play with - The hardest obstacle I have had with this was figuring out how to use the balum. I ground one leg of the balum to ground, and the other one to a 100' piece of wire stretched 30' high out to my trees in the backyard. Another fight was finding the right software to use with it. I started using SDR++ and after playing around with it and a lot of youtube videos, I think I am starting to figure it out. Also, if you have a big spike in the center of your display, do a search for DC Spike with the SDR software you plan on using to see how to get rid of it. Once I got rid of the spike, the radio has been a lot of fun. Being a ham operator, I find this bundle fun to play around with, but there is so much more you can do with it besides scanning ham bands with the correct antenna. Discone antennas are good from what I hear. ## Features - A full, wide-band RF solution for those interested in getting started with software defined radio and with a keen interest in HF bands. Frequency range is 300Hz-2.3GHz (with a frequency gap near 1.1GHz) - The NESDR SMArt XTR HF Bundle utilizes a well-designed upconverter--the Ham It Up Plus v2--to receive HF, instead of utilizing a direct sampling hack as with most other low cost HF SDRs. This results in a vastly different HF experience--much better performance, and no loss of gain controls - Included is a Ham It Up Plus v2 upconverter, installed in a custom black aluminum enclosure; an NESDR SMArt XTR RTL-SDR, 3 antennas, an impedance matching balun for longwire and dipole antennas, and interconnect adapters and cables - Only available for a limited time! Due to the frequency gap this is NOT recommended for ADS-B. Instead try our NESDR SMArt HF Bundle (desertcart product code B0747PX3NZ) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07GZKR98X | | Analog Video Format | PAL | | Antenna | Radio | | AntennaDescription | Radio | | Best Sellers Rank | #151,025 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #11 in Radio Frequency Transceivers | | Brand | NooElec | | Color | Silver | | Compatible Devices | Devices capable of utilizing software defined radio | | Connectivity Technology | Radio Frequency | | Connector Type | SMA | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 235 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 years | | Item Weight | 340 g | | Manufacturer | Nooelec Inc. | | Mfr Part Number | 100794 | | Model Number | NESDR SMArt XTR HF Bundle | | Number of Items | 6 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Tuner Type | Shortwave | | UPC | 616469146311 | | Warranty Description | 2 year manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** NooElec - **Color:** Silver - **Compatible Devices:** Devices capable of utilizing software defined radio - **Connectivity Technology:** Radio Frequency - **Connector Type:** SMA ## Images ![Nooelec NESDR SMArt XTR HF Bundle: 300Hz-2.3GHz Software Defined Radio Set for LF/HF/UHF/VHF.

Please contact Nooelec directly for more information about specific applications. Thank you. **Q: Is the max frequency 1.7 GHz or 2.3 GHz? The standalone SmartXTR states it goes up to 2.3 but this bundle currently says 1.7.** A: 2.3GHz. Unfortunately the title is incorrect and we are working with Amazon to fix it back to the way it was. Thanks! **Q: Is this product compatible with windows 10 ?** A: Yes it is…I use the cubic SDR software. Just use the nooelec website for specifics. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works great, IF you can figure out out to use it. *by J***. on May 2, 2022* There are people who say this thing doesn't work.
