Stewart: Whatever option you decide upon, you will find the panadapter to be a great device for localizing and killing various forms of EMI interference. For me it's become almost an obsession to find a blip on the screen then start throwing circuit breakers in an attempt to find the noise source. Since the time of owning the SDR-IQ unit, I have replaced power supplies on my daughter's Sony Playstation, two wireless routers, an UPS for my home office, several USB-to-Serial adapters and the noise floor is now reasonably clean. So beware, if you're concerned about EMI spectrum pollution, the addition of a pan adapter is so useful that it may keep you busy for a while -- although the exercise to/from the breaker panel will be good for you.
