The NEW RSP1B SDR Receiver From SDRPlay

Here we take a look at the new RSP1B from SDRPlay which has a massive noise floor improvement over the older RSP1A. We also take a look at the new features of SDRConnect Preview 2.

It just gets better and better. 🙂

I bought an RSPdx in December and it's an awesome radio. The folks at the shop (a brick and mortar ham radio store - a rare thing these days!) said they sell zillions of them.

It sure is nice to see the RSP-1B in a metal case, plus the other improvements. A fair number of WebSDR sites are using the RSPs; less noise helps them have better sensitivity!

[Pedrok]

Iam glad to see an updated rsp with new spec that can work with the new software in a metal case at last

[ograilways]

It would be interesting to compare the RSP1B with the RSPdx.

[raybokor]

what splitter was he using to split between he 2 rsps

[JonathanAdami]

I was right about clicking buy on the rsp1a, happy I caught this video in time :D

[StueyD]

I'm a little gutted as I only got my RSP1A a just over a week ago and its the lower frequencies that are improved in the 1B that I'm most interested in. Luckily the RSP1A is performing amazingly well with a piece of speaker wire as an antenna so its not all bad.

[billvalley]

Is the RSP-1B better at lowering noise on the lower frequencies than the RSPduo?

[KarlWitsman]

Here in the US, there seems to be nothing in the long wave spectrum and I'm not interested in beacons. So I would like to know if this noise rejection is better in the shortwave bands too? Otherwise, I'll just stick with my RSP1A. Thanks for any information you can give us.

I wonder if the RSPdx has the same frontend filters and therefore perform as well as the RSP1B on LF. Very good explanation on the new featurs of SDR Connect Preview 2. I'm stalling it soon and try it.

[TM-nqtt]

I can't get this to connect to my gnu radio on linux at all. Any fix?

[brianwilliams]

I made my own metal case for the RSP1A cost me nothing about two years ago

[twitch_theoxidado]

how does it compare to the hf disvovery? big differences?

[FishingFan]

Nice one Matt! Just ordered mine. Ditching my Funcube dongle Pro after all these years! Will the RSP1B work on other platforms like Spectrum lab or HDsdr? Reason I'm asking is I do meteor scatter detection from the Graves transmitter in Lyon, France on 2m ssb.

[TheButterZone]

Ooh now I want that metal case for my RSP1... that's no longer sold.

[justinrayguitars]

New to sdr. So if I buy one of these and hook up to my laptop and 11 meter antenna I can see the 11 meter band?

[JohnR_ytbe]

I really like the shaky scene transition astheticaly but its making ne a bit dizzy Matt

[BillyNoMates]

SDR Connect is so much easier to get up and running compared to SDR Uno, Even though it doesnt have the full set of features yet.
The real black art is allowing port forwardign through routers to enable remote access.
then there is the issue of getting a domain name registered but this seems to be easier to do compared to the port forwarding.

[WTRI_Ronny]

So the new single has better specs than the current Duo also?

[tonystephen]

I've often wondered does the host computer cause much QRM with the SDR?
