I have been looking into getting a decent SDR and have narrowed it down to these two: RSP1A and RSP2.
In looking at past reviews and issues, both here and on other sites, I am inclined toward the RSP1A since it seems it is more sensitive to weak signals and the price point is lower. A cheaper route was preferred by me sometime last year but have come to the conclusion that a 14 bit unit is above and beyond the 8 bit and will just have to budget around $100 to make this worth my while.
Anybody here that has (or has had) both and can give me some advice on which one to buy? I'll be using an outdoor longwire antenna that is properly grounded to bleed off static, and I can easily make a patch cable for the SDR. Not sure which computer I will be using since I have Windows Vista and 8.1, and Linux Mint Tina available.
