I found another site that reviews some units, and mentions the issues you noted: http://www.rtl-sdr.com/tag/sensitivity/ http://www.rtl-sdr.com/tag/sensitivity/
- heywire 10y agoI've used rtl_tcp on a raspberry pi before, but that was mostly to get the receiver close to the transmitter (in which case I unhooked the antenna as well).

There are numerous standalone SDRs that can be used without a computer. The rtl-sdr isn't really comparable to a proper radio. It is, after all, just a repurposed TV tuner. It's a great little toy for exploring radio, but the performance is exactly what you'd expect for a $20 dongle.
