Question's on SDR related things?

[AngWay]

Hi i am having some problems with what i should buy and not buy. right now i have three RTL-SDR v4's and i'm using one to listen to a p25 control channel on OP25 and the other two are being used with dsdplus fastlane i have two instances of fastlane open and each one scanning a set number of frequencies, i'm just wondering if i were to get a sdrplay or a airspy r2 or something along those lines with a 10mhz bandwidth would i see better progress on what i'm currently doing now?

would say a sdrplay do better at scanning a set amount of frequencies or would i just have the same performance out of either?.

Also i am wondering if i got something like a radio shack pro 668 could i still do what i am doing with the three rtl-sdr's?

or would i be limited to just a single control channel or just one instance of scanning so to speak?.

I am not the best with all of this i am fairly new to the hobby so please keep answers simple and "dumbed down" if you can. Also i really appreciate the feedback! BTW which SDR would you recommend that has 10mhz of bandwidth? Thanks!

SDR-RTL have only a weak tracking filter at its front end but SDRPlay devices use frequency band specific filters like a scanner and performs very much like a Uniden SDS100/200. But I believe you will have a more limited amount of software to choose from that can handle a SDRPLay device.

will dsdplus fastlane and op25 and sdrtrunk work good with a RSPdx?

I've never tried any of those programs directly controlling a SDRPlay receiver, only feed it's audio from SDR#. You'll have to look in each softwares documentation what receivers they support.
