It's processor and ram that count most. If you record to mp3, you can store loads of transmissions in minimal space requirements.

Please be wary of anything but the two links previously mentioned by another user in this thread. These units are small, cheap and relatively easy to knock off. There are a lot of less then reputable units out there for purchase. Be patient and use a known good seller, for your benefit.

go figure....the txco kit with antennas is out of stock and the dongle alone is out of stock. can anyone suggest any stateside places selling the dongle(s)?

Yeah, you can still purchase from the rtl-sdr.com Worldwide Store in China. The Worldwide store took about a week the last time I placed an order.
