KrakenRF has launched a new project via the Crowd Supply website for their new KrakenSDR phase-coherent software-defined radio with five RTL-SDRs. The project has already raised over $200,000 thanks ...

Traditionally, working with RTL-SDR required a deep understanding of radio frequency (RF) principles and a significant investment in sourcing compatible components. This complexity often posed a ...

A radio receiver consisting of just a very good analog-to-digital converter connected directly to the antenna plus a powerful computer could make a great radio. However, the present state of the ...

[ByTechLab] needed an enclosure for his R820T2 based RTL-SDR, which sports an SMA connector. Resolving to design and 3D print one in less than a day, he learned a few things about practical design for ...

No doubt most tech and electronic enthusiasts have encountered buzz around SDR, software-defined radio, and asked themselves “what’s the sudden big deal,” if the technology existed for decades? The re ...
