## Overview

The NESDR Mini (TV28T v2) is a compact, USB-powered software defined radio receiver featuring the RTL2832U demodulator and R820T tuner IC, offering a broad 25-1750MHz frequency range. Designed for compatibility with a wide array of SDR software, it includes built-in ESD protection and comes with an antenna, making it an affordable, high-performance tool for ADS-B tracking, amateur radio, and RF signal exploration.

## Description

This custom Nooelec SDR is a modified DVB-T USB dongle tuned for SDR usage, including upgraded crystal, capacitors and inductors compared to generic devices. Full compatibility with a large array of software packages, such as MATLAB, HDSDR, SDR Touch, SDR#, Planeplotter--too many to list. The perfect device for learning software defined radio, on the cheap. Amateur radio, ADS-B, police & fire scanning, trunking, satellite images--you name it, this little guy can probably do it. Outperforms many devices 10x its cost! These units are based on the R820T tuner IC made by Rafael Micro. As such, they have a frequency capability of approximately 25MHz-1750MHz, though this can vary somewhat from unit to unit. There is also an RTL2832U IC on board of course, which acts as the demodulator and USB interface. The connector type on the antenna and USB board is MCX--male MCX on the antenna, female MCX on the SDR. There are plenty of adapter and adapter cables available in our store if you want to connect your favorite antenna! Want HF too? You can modify the dongle for HF reception, but it's not a great way of doing things. If you would like to do this please contact us and we'll be happy to walk you through it. However, we strongly recommend you take a look at our 'Ham It Up' upconverter which will let you listen all the way down to 100kHz or lower with impeccable sensitivity.

Review: brill - Mine is set up to recieve plane radar with flight radar and a raspberry pi. Works great for that.
Review: Handy little USB with a great chipset for Software Defined Radio - I've been using this for a little while, getting into what Software Defined Radio is, and what you can do with it, and looking back this is probably one of the best choices I could have made. The Interface and Tuner IC's on this USB, the Realtek RTL2832U interface IC & R820T, are the best out there for SDR at the time of writing and give an incredible range meaning that reliable reception is possible of radio waves from 25MHz to over 1750Mhz. That makes AM, FM, DAB Digital Radio, ADS-B (Aircraft) Transponder Reception and, allegedly, Digital TV reception is possible with one USB device. I say allegedly for TV reception because I haven't tried to make it work. Getting it to work is a breeze and there's plenty of open source software already written for Linux, MacOS and Windows that makes finding drivers that work much easier than I was expecting - that's down to the Realtek RTL2832U chipset - just type rtl-sdr into you Search Engine and you'll be spoilt for choice. The NooElec is a nice design that slots firmly into place - a plus if you're mobile - and the design allows for ample ventilation of the IC's inside. Other than that there's not much else to say about the USB stick enclosure other than it's on the large size so you might want to use a good quality USB extension cable if the space between the USB2 or USB3 slots on your machine are rather close (and you'll definitely need an adapter if your machine only has USB Type C but you probably knew that). It also comes with a handy 5dB aerial which itself has a handy magnetic base that'll help you get started. Don't expect miracles from this aerial though - depending on your project you'll most likely want to use or build one that's tuned to the frequency bands that you're interested in. That said I was surprised at how well it performed across all the spectrum which is testament to the quality of the R820T Tuner circuitry. When coupled with a purpose built aerial is when you see how remarkable this piece of kit is - it's range for picking up radio signals is truly remarkable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this unit tune and receive on 137mh/z for weather satellites?**
A: At present im using one these to rx acas aircraft on 133*** and decoding with a freeware software decoder on a laptop ,so google " RTL usb DVB " for sites , my advice put the dongle at the antenna end reducing sig loss in coax cable ,and set up 50k bandwidth usb ,use a fast comp/laptop as it will need to run the software decoder at same time .Dont expect the same results as a dedicated rx .(ie-Amateur Radio )

**Q: hi all , was wondering if this will work on a mac computer . many thanks**
A: hi Bobthere is a help group on Facebook contact one of the group on there, they should know. Search RTL-SDR installation.

**Q: Will I be able to listen to the planes in my area**
A: Yes, if you google your areas approach radar frequency and local airports frequencies and input them into appropriate software it works very well. Just on a small antenna I can monitor birmingham airport from 20 miles away.

**Q: Hi there,
Is this waterproof or indoor use only?**
A: The unit is NOT waterproof. It could be used in a car with a laptop, etc.  If the weather is dry and no high humidity or rain you could use it outdoors.
