Scott,
I too have just started playing with the NooElec SDR. One thing that hit me between the eyes is that the SDR is not very sensitive. I have had moderate success copying local two meter traffic and APRS signals on 144.390 by using a broad band preamp at the radio and also one at the antenna, with that arrangement the SDR hears much better. 73, Mark Mark Spencer, WA8SME Education and Technology Program Director ARRL, the national association for Amateur RadioTM 43 Pinelock Dr. Gales Ferry, CT 06335 860-381-5335 860-460-1139 (cell) mspen...@arrl.org _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
