The new RSP1A explained by Jon Hudson from SDRplay. The SDR-play RSP1A is a major upgrade to the popular RSP1—it is a powerful wideband full featured 14 bit SDR which covers the RF spectrum from 1 kHz to 2 GHz. All it needs is a PC and an antenna to provide excellent communications receiver functionality. Combined with the power of readily available SDR receiver software (including ‘SDRuno’ supplied by SDRplay) you can monitor up to 10 MHz of spectrum at a time. Documented API allows developers to create new demodulators or applications around the platform. KEY BENEFITS - Covers all frequencies from 1 kHz through LF, MW, HF, VHF, UHF and L-band - Excellent dynamic range for challenging reception conditions - Low levels of spurious responses - Works with all the popular SDR software (including HDSDR, SDR Console, Cubic SDR and SDRuno) - ExtIO based plugin available - Software upgradeable for future standards - Strong and growing software support network - API provided to allow demodulator or application development - Multiplatform driver and API support including Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and Raspberry Pi 2/3 - Up to 16 individual receivers in any 10MHz slice of spectrum using SDRuno - Calibrated S meter and power measurements with SDRuno - Ideal for monitoring of ISM/ IoT/ Telemetry bands <2 GHz - Ideal for portable operation KEY FEATURES - Continuous coverage from 1 kHz to 2 GHz - Up to 10 MHz visible bandwidth - Powers over the USB cable with a simple type B socket - 14-bit ADC silicon technology (not another 8 bit dongle!) - 11 high-selectivity, built in front-end preselection filters - Software selectable AM/FM and DAB broadcast band notch filters - Software selectable multi-level Low Noise Preamplifier - Bias -T power supply for powering antenna-mounted LNA - RF shielding layer inside case - SDRuno—World Class SDR software - Documented API for new apps development - Single SMA antenna socket covering entire frequency range 73 Pascal VA2PV
