Are there any existing reliable alternatives?
- est 13y agoBladeRF, USRP
- anExcitedBeast 13y agoBladeRF looks pretty awesome.
- SigmundA 13y agoIf you want to try this stuff out cheap, then get a DVB-T dongle that works with RTL-SDR: http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr http://www.nooelec.com/store/tv28tv2.html http://www.nooelec.com/store/tv28tv2.html bladeRf, USRP and now HackRF are def a step up but big difference in cost. There is also http://www.RFSpace.com http://www.RFSpace.com, http://www.Winradio.com http://www.Winradio.com and http://www.flex-radio.com http://www.flex-radio.com for commercial offerings.
- fdb 13y agoMyriad-RF is also an open-source project. It costs $299 and supports frequencies between 260MHz and 3.8GHz. http://myriadrf.org/ http://myriadrf.org/
- VLM 13y agoFor real usable ham radio SDR there's always http://fivedash.com/ http://fivedash.com/ aka the former kb9yig operation. I have a liteII combined kit built for 30 meters. Works pretty well! Wide enough BW that with a 192K sound card (or was it 96K?) I would listen to one of the aircraft weather transmitters. Note this is narrowband low frequency rx and tx gear, whereas there's two separate "cultures" of SDR people and one lives to demod wifi and the other lives to do advanced DSP on 160 meters or whatever. And the two don't often meet.
