Hi,
Just curious:
How popular are these software defined receivers (SDR) these days for
general
sw listening in the price range of, say, up to $ 1,500 ? *The kind that work
with one's PC.
Haven't thought about them in quite a while.
Is WinRadio still the standard for these kind of things, or are there now
others also offering them, that are comparable, or better ?
Still, there's something really nice about twisting knobs, I guess, but this
old fashioned concept really dates me.
For a $ 1,500 budget what would you get ? *Why ?
(for MIL and AM up to 30 MHz mainly; possibly some VHF/UHF if capable)
I'm not familiar with the setup, but I have heard of a unit known as a
Perseus(sp) which a number of DX'ers are using.- Hide quoted text -

Not to fan any flames, hopefully the "smoke" is
now gone. Can you believe this group now? People
actually asking radio/antenna questions and people actually
answering them? :-D
**THIS** is what makes this group great so great IMO.
