There is a new Yahoo grouphttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/RFICausedBySDRIQ/
which may be of interest to those who own or may purchase anSDR-IQ. The
purpose of the group is to exchange information about RFI caused by the
SDR-IQand how to reduce or eliminate the RFI.


The obvious solution is . . .
not to buy one. ~ RHF

OK. What's 'SDR-IQ'?

If anyone needs any information on the SDR-IQ or SDR-14 let me know. I
have both of them running here side by side with an IC-R9000, TS2000
and an IC-R8500. Not sure about what birdies people are talking about.
All of the birdies are in the range of -90 to -100 dBm. My TS-2000
has birdies that show up S9 on the meter. I guess a lot of people are
jumping to the conclusion that because it is simple on the front end,
it has to perform poorly. The analog to digital converters used in
these radios have equivalent IP3s of greater than 45 dBm. Also, there
is not one signal that I cannot hear on the SDR-14 or SDR-IQ that I
can hear on any of my other radios.
