iamk3 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 So, I really wanted to buy this during the holiday special and wasn't able to. Now that it's back in the HakShop, they are sold out. Anyone have any suggestions where to get one in the US? I was looking at this: http://www.amazon.com/Vantech-RTL2832U-DIGITAL-Receiver-RTL-SDR/dp/B00D8FIYZ2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391942236&sr=8-2&keywords=rtl2832u Thoughts?

barry99705 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 This is the one I have. http://www.amazon.com/gp/other/aw/d/B00C37AZXK?cache=3921b2955cb6f9e8c7b0549e477710c8#ref=pd_aw_sbs_1&precache=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN.Frank Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Amazon is covered up with em'. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=rtl2832u&tag=googhydr-20&index=aps&hvadid=28364434807&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=s&hvrand=8526988301105033098&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_7j18udivxn_b It's just that you don't get the neat little case to carry it in and a cool Hak5 sticker for your laptop. Also, I saw a rtl2832u set on Amazon for $10 but it was going to take 17 to 24 days for shipping and I wanted mine fast so I bought from the HakShop and got it in 2 days. There's plenty of these dongles out there, just need to ask if you really need the case and sticker or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no42 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Good resource of support chipsets & devices: http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr Ideally you want the following tuner: R820T - Tuner 24MHz to 1850MHz ; Now the E4000 has gone this is the tuner to get as it's comparable in performance. It also seems to be cheaper overall.Quick search on amazon shows this device (which will work) http://www.amazon.com/Receiver-RTL2832U-Compatible-Packages-Guaranteed/dp/B009U7WZCA/ You can find cheaper ones, just check the chipset and tuner!
