[amsat-bb] SDR Radio

[Donald Olson]

Been using the SDRPlay2 on a couple of computers and an Android tablet.  Several pieces of software out there for it.  Have not done satellites yet. HF and VHF only, but the receiver goes up to 2 GHz.  As always, the key is having an appropriate antenna for the need.  Cost about US$150 at HRO.  Has two SMA connectors as well as wire connections and Amazon has a package of SMA adapters to several connectors for about US$22.
