    "content": "Like others have mentioned here, the $20-25 RTL Dongles have not worked \nvery well for me when combined with a transmitter.  The FT-857D/FUNcube \nDonglePro+ combo worked well for me. Not one of the two RTL dongles was \nsuitable for regular use.  I rank the RTL's as a failure for both mode B \nor J birds without significant additional filters.  For simple receive \nuse, they're okay.\n\nIf compactness was a desire, the FCDP+ would be my choice. However, the \nSDRPlay mentioned has a lot more bandwidth capability and is reasonably \npriced from HRO in the states.\n\n73\nClayton\nW5PFG\n\nOn 1/22/2016 13:10, John Toscano wrote:\n> Mentioning that you are waiting for a tax refund makes me think you are\n> planning to dive into SDR with a fairly high-end and expensive unit, You\n> can probably get away with spending $25 or so if you have reasonably modest\n> expectations.
