These dongles are mediocre, yes they are cheap, but they are virtually useless for anything other than a door stop.
The lowest cost, but useful, SDR receiver is an SDRPLAY RSP1A. With the free RSPUno software the RSP1A will track a K3 via Omnirig, clicking on a signal on the RSPUno spectrum jumps the K3 to the frequency. You can display DX Cluster spots on the spectrum too. Cost approx $120. I use an RSPDX with a home made ferrite splitter on the RF IN/OUT on my K3, details of the splitter are on my page at: https://www.qsl.net/g4aon/elecraft_mods/ 73 Dave -- Sent from my iPhone SE ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
