There is a new Yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RFICausedBySDRIQ/which may be of interest snipola To me, the most striking thing about this little box is that it's actually USB powered. Yeah, USB is pretty cool. So, it wouldn't require an independent power supply or wall wart. That means you could run it off a battery powered laptop after you lost power in a storm or something. I guess that's kind of neat, but if it generates so much RFI that a new Yahoo group has appeared just to discuss that fact, I wouldn't let this thing anywhere near my house. I'm skeptical about the OP. He never responded to any other posts. I checked out that yahoo group when he first posted and it had one member. Checking now, yahoo says the group doesn't exist. It is still probably healthy to maintain a little skepticism about the SDR-IQ too. It reportedly has switchable lowpass and highpass filters at 5 MHz and 15 MHz. It seems they would cover most desensitization issues. The 5 MHz highpass filter should prevent desense due to nearby lower frequency broadcast band stations. But if you've got a ham in the neighborhood who keys up on either 40 or 20 meters it seems to me that could desense the SDR-IQ to everything from 5 MHz to 15 MHz. It's interesting. I'll be watching the reviews and this group. -- rb |
