RTL-SDR - an SDR receiver from a cheap DVB-T tuner on a USB connector

Hello, I would like to ask if this antenna (http://radiocentrum.com.pl/produkt/boomerang-27-sirio-balkonowa-cb-309-cm/) will work with Dongl RTL-SDR V3? I am afraid that it will not work or, worse, damage the Dongiel. Please advice.

Why combine on the portal Radio stock market qrv, there is a converter with rtl 2832 r820t

Can you buy such an adapter?

Yes
Uncle Allegro has, type the SMA connector
or on google

Hello forum members. Due to the fact that opinions differ on this topic, I will ask an official question here. I am mainly counting on a response from RTL SDR V3 users (silver housing).
Well, how did you manage to get the reception range on this device without any amplifiers and other accessories? According to the manufacturer, it is 24 - 1766 MHz. However, I saw "miracles" on the network who achieved different receptions outside these borders.

The second question concerns plugins. Have any of you come across a TETR decoder that can be operated in SDR SHARP, but for SDR CONSOLE V3?

So, in your opinion, V2 is the best product of this series? I have both but different antennas and I don't think I will check it.
As for my experience with the V3, it is short, but I compared the pickup at BFM at the beginning. Local radio is much better on this. The signal is clear, stereo, beautiful and without distortion. I had problems on V2. A lot of noise. Checked on the same antenna.

Let me put it this way - it all depends on the drivers.
I have V2 and the original drivers are 24-1766 MHz, but if you replace them with those by Mr. Oliver Jowett, the range extends from 5 to 1865 MHz. In any case, it no longer detects DECTs that operate above 1880 MHz and the heterodyne signal from AM radios when it is operating below 5 MHz. At least this is the case with my receiver and my devices, it may be slightly different for others.
Another thing is the actual stability of receiving signals at such frequencies. Practically below 15 MHz, reception is not satisfactory; while in the case of AM radio stations it will still escape (because it has higher transmitting powers), in the case of ham radio it is already very poor. As for the upper limit, I was playing sniffing the GSM900 band and here was the spread of 4 channels (0.8 MHz) between the set channel and the actually received one.
Probably the best stability this receiver obtains when receiving VHF radio and TV bands (it was originally created for this), so depending on the standard it is from about 40 to 870 MHz.
The matter is simple:
- use an upconverter for lower frequencies (e.g. in the DC-40 MHz range)
- for higher frequencies, the downconverter depends on the band from which you want to listen (e.g. for the GSM900 band)
- when you want to use a very wide frequency band, it is worth considering the purchase of HackRF (the cost of a new piece is about PLN 1000); in addition to receiving signals in the range of practically from DC to 6 GHz, it also enables transmission

Welcome
I would like to raise a certain issue related to the above-mentioned topic.
As you probably know, RTL-SDR with the use of SDRSharp allows us to download the satellite signal, e.g. NOAA, and convert it into an image.
And here I have a problem.
Do you have any knowledge what program is now compatible with Sharp and Orbitron to edit the photo? Unfortunately, WXtoIMG does not work under Windows 10 and I cannot deal with it :(

I managed ....

Gentlemen, how are you with the radio receiving of the falling meteors? Apparently, it is bad with the transmitters of the eastern neighbors and it is hard to catch anything. Do you have any other solutions? Geminids are fully flying, and I received nothing in the east direction and USB frequency 49.5 million

And yet it is not bad. I set the antenna properly, the appropriate configuration of the RTL device and it works. It is a fact, without the help of the HROOFT program, but directly from the SDR console. In addition to the visual "showing" of the meteors, you can perceive the sound at the same time. As a colleague said, "the sound is literally cosmic".
Did you also try to pick up meteor echoes?

I am attaching selected traces.

Receiving programs are Fldigi, Multipsk, JVCom. 32
Digipan, MixW.2.19 or higher ver.

Dude, if you are looking for information about programs for the sdr tuner, I recommend downloading the PDF file and reading. I got the file from a friend from the forum but unfortunately it is in English. I hope you can handle it.
Here are the sites with the programs.
https://www.qsl.net/rv3apm/
https://www.rtl-sdr.com/big-list-rtl-sdr-supported-software/
http://sdr.ipip.cz/software

I searched the forum, but maybe unsuccessfully?

Apparently, radioscanner.pl has a list of most of the radio bands used in Poland in the form of an xml file for the SDR # program, but I am afraid that I will retire before activating my account there. Maybe there is a download here somewhere, or someone can help?

And even better if it was in the form of xls or ods, because I wanted to use it for PLSDR.

Thanks in advance for your help.

If anyone needs it, here is a simple python script that converts xml for SDR to csv used by PLSDR.

Hello everyone and I wish you all the best in the New Year. Recently, I tested the design of the QFH antenna for GPS frequency as described on this website. http://jcoppens.com/ant/qfh/fotos_gps.en.php
It turned out that it works very well at the 1540MHz frequency. I recommend everyone to test this antenna, if someone does not have the original one from the VAISAL probe, he can do it as described on the page above. I would like to add that I had two FP6L amplifiers connected. One about 30 cm behind the antenna in it I desoldered the choke at the input so that the voltage would not go to the antenna because it is short-circuited, another meter in front of the tuner and set it in the TUNER AGC options. The effects can be seen in the photos below

Best regards.

How can you drop ver.SDR SHARP Is your ver. is it payable?
I have SDR Sharper ver.03 and when receiving it scratchy, as if the oscilloscope was the reason I have such an impression. I posted SDRSharper v.03 and SDR Sharper v.05 in one of the posts
I just found it, but it does not move. I use RTL 2832 fc00013 black housing.

I have this version. On this FC0013 you will not listen as high as it worked on the 1090 and it is a version with a generator instead of quartz. The tuner was called LV5TDLX.

Thanks for the sdr
I have LV5DE-lux and the SDR-Sharper is scratching
In my post I wrote about starting HDSDR, so I turned on Q / I in ExiO and HDSDR started and VHF 88-108MHz I ordered R820T and got fc00013 in black ob. with led Perhaps ver. extended, I did not try below 24MHz, I will let you know

Good day.
What is the situation with receiving the SSTV from the ISS?
Can the picture be picked up at any time? From what I was able to find out, the same ARISS works from morning to evening and is the SSTV signal transmitted in the same way?
A few times I have already camped late (1 am and 4 am) but unfortunately to no avail. And here's my question. Am I not picking up because they are not transmitting or maybe it is not as simple as in the case of NOAA and METEOR 2 ??

pldi
with ISS SSTV you must have a radio-transmitter 2m / 70cm Check the sp7pki forum, on this portal registration with your own username You do not need a ham radio sign
With NOAA I do not answer the question of the antenna What software does NOAA receive from RTL2832 fc 00012

It is possible to pick up iss normally and I have already found out that the official website of the station should be followed on an ongoing basis.

It turns out that ISS infrared harnesses are sent occasionally.
As for noah, it's a simple matter and it catches without any problems on the flower type antenna.
There are plenty of instructions on YT on how to receive Noaa. The most troublesome thing is waiting
Here is a nice link with the programs I use.

Ps. The Orbitron tracking program is the production of our compatriot

Something like that is an attachment to RTL
From NOAA video link already with the settings, burn to CD / DVD / Pendraiver for yourself and transfer to another pc / laptop with XP or WIN7 Is it possible

Buddy, forgive me, maybe it's late when I write, but I don't understand you completely.

pldi
I mean I set the settings in SDR-SHARP by. the link from Youtube and the SDR-Sharp catalog with new settings I transfer to e.g. a pendrive / CD / DVD Having SDR-pa, I upload to another PC-et / Lap

GSM attachment, portal cxema.ru

Buddy, I am not strong in this field, but the sdr # program itself does not interfere with the registry settings. All settings are saved in plugins and the main directory. The issue of sub-settings such as e.g. virtual line or drivers, e.g.
I personally got the sdr from a very helpful person and the settings were ready.
Was that what you meant?
