In a few weeks we will have an independent report with receiver measurements for:
- RTL-SDR V3
- Airspy Mini
- SDRplay RSP duo
- LimeSDR Mini
- BladeRF 2.0 micro
- Ettus USRP B210
- PlutoSDR
We have measured:
- Noise figure (aka. sensitivity)
- Dynamic range (reciprocal mixing, blocking, SFDR – whichever occurs first) at various separations)
- Spectral purity (internal spurs)
for all satcom frequencies (except 1.6 GHz) and all gain settings.
Although our methods are relatively simple and not necessarily 100% “clinically clean lab tests”, they will provide a good basis for making side-by-side comparisons between the different devices.
