I don't expect a US$ 9.00 dongle to perform like a US$1000 SDR. They are great performers for the cost, but no DX machine by any stretch.

In any case, I'm not trying to convince anybody to drop their Elads or Perseus in favor of an RTL dongle. But if anybody feels so inclined, I have 4 RTL dongles that I would be willing to trade for your Elad or Perseus. LOL

They simply can not compete with a QS1R, Perseus, etc.
