This geniune SDRplay RSPdx-R2 is an enhanced version of the popular RSPdx and is a wideband full-featured 14-bit SDR which covers the entire RF spectrum from 1kHz to 2GHz.
Combined with the power of readily available SDR receiver software (including ‘SDRuno’ for Windows and Multi-Platform ‘SDRconnect’ supplied by SDRplay) you can monitor up to 10MHz spectrum at a time.
The RSPdx provides three software selectable antenna inputs, and an external clock input. All it needs is a computer and an antenna to provide excellent communications receiver functionality.
Key Features/Specifications:
- Covers all frequencies from 1kHz through VLF, LF, MW, HF, VHF, UHF and L-band to 2GHz, with no gaps
- Receive, monitor and record up to 10MHz of spectrum at a time
- Significantly improved noise performance below 1MHz (i.e. for some MF, LF and below).
- Improved dynamic range below 2MHz both in tuner mode and HDR mode.
- HDR mode below 2MHz giving overall dynamic range and selectivity advantages
- Software selectable choice of 3 antenna ports
- External clock input for synchronisation purposes, or connection to GPS reference clock for extra frequency accuracy
- Excellent dynamic range for challenging reception conditions
- Free use of Windows-based SDRuno software (check website for versions supported)
- Free use of SDRconnect SDR and server software for Windows, MacOS and Linux (Check website for versions supported)
- Multiplatform driver and API support including Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and Raspberry Pi 4/5
- Strong and growing software support network
- Calibrated S meter/ RF power and SNR measurement with SDRuno (including datalogging to .CSV file capability)
- Documented API provided to allow demodulator or application development on multiple platforms
- An integrated frequency scanner (for frequency ranges and stored memory panel lists)
- Weight: 315g
- Dimensions: 113 x 94 x 35mm
- Antenna A port: 1kHz -2GHz, 50 ohms Input impedance, SMA Female connector
- Antenna B port: 1KHz -2GHz, 50 ohms Input impedance, SMA Female connector, Selectable 4.7v DC out (see Bias T)
- Antenna C Port: 1kHz -2GHz, 50 ohms Input impedance, BNC Female connector
- Bias T: Software selectable 4.7v @ 100mA

It’s also a good time to remind the Raspberry Pi, Linux and MacOS users that’s SDRconnect software is one of the few SDR programmes to run natively on those platforms. See more here: https://www.sdrplay.com/
The fully calibrated Windows Spectrum Analyser software continues to be improved and Steve Andrew, the author provides great support for it: https://www.spectrumanalyser.
