    SMA connections on SDR Dongles

    Greetings: First of all, I do not know if I should have placed this thread either in the "Antennas" thread or in the "SDR" thread. If I placed this in the wrong thread, I apologize. My logic was that I am specifically wanting to discuss those micro small SMA antenna connection points on the SDR...

    MAY 2022 Shack Re-Do

    In my last shack, I had everything in one Rack (Box) an 8U Black Woodgrain Rack (24"hx21w"x16"deep) which took up the whole left side of my corner desk, reducing my workspace. Great for the radios/scanners not good for desk space. In this new change, I found smaller narrow standard rack boxes...

    Running RTL-SDR.com and FlightAware Pro Stick Plus dongles simultaneously on Windows

    I had an RTL-SDR.com V.3 dongle up and running on Windows 10. Then I installed a FlightAware Pro Stick plus dongle, it runs great! I can't seem to use them simultaneously though. I know they are both essentially rtl-sdr dongles on the inside. How do I run them both simultaneously? Is there a way...

    Strange signals on SDR#

    I just got my sdr a few days ago and while scrolling through the spectrum i found some strange signals. It's a continuous transmission and it's not digital or at least not something dsd can decode. Does anyone know what this is?

    Unitrunker Is UniTrunker still popular? Alternatives?

    Hi there, I just entered the wonderful world of SDR and as such I am very new and inexperienced. I have watched a few videos online on how to decode P25 and similar trunked signals but these videos were fairly old. I have two RTL-SDR dongles (one RTL-SDR v3 and one NESDR Smart). I am using SDR#...

    I'm having a hell of a time trying to set up my RTL-SDR V3 to decode my local police departments, each one functions on a P25 conventional single frequency. I've seen too many videos on Youtube and have read countless hours of forums and articles on how to set this up to absolutely no avail...

    DSDPlus Please Help with Decoding, I can't figure this out

    I used to be into the old school Radio Shack Scanners, but a few years ago in my area, Idaho Falls, Id (Bonneville County) started encrypting their frequencies. I just recently found out RTL-SDR and purchased two of them to use with DSDPlus Fastlane. I can now hear agencies up to 60 miles away...
