SDR-V2 Description The SDR-V2 radio receivers are all RTL-SDR receivers based on the RTL2832U chip, but they feature different tuners: the FC0012 tuner supports the 22-948.6MHz frequency band; the FC0013 tuner extends the frequency band to 22-1100MHz and supports L-band input. Note: 1. The RTL-SDR V2 cannot receive shortwave radio signals because the RTL2832U chip in the RTL-SDR does not directly support shortwave reception. It lacks direct downconversion for HF bands (below 24 MHz). Therefore, due to hardware limitations, the RTL-SDR V2 cannot receive shortwave radio signals. The RTL-SDR has a rich supporting software ecosystem, covering multiple platforms including computers, tablets, and mobile phones. Real-time Sampling Rate: Approximately 2.4 MS/s (million samples per second). Actual stable values may be slightly lower. I/Q Mode: Supports complex sampling (quadrature down-conversion). Resolution: ADC Bits: 8 bits (built-in in the RTL2832U). Dynamic range is limited, making it suitable for entry-level applications. Interface: USB 2.0: Requires computer signal processing (may be limited by USB bandwidth). L Compatible with mainstream SDR software (SDR#, GQRX, HDSDR, CubicSDR, etc.), requiring no additional drivers. Open Source Ecosystem Support L Extensive software support from the global developer community, such as SDR# (Windows platform, highly user-friendly). GQRX (Linux/macOS, supports spectrum analysis) rtl_433 (decodes 433MHz sensor signals) dump1090 (decodes aviation ADS-B signals) Low-power portable design USB powered, no external power required Typical Applications Amateur Radio & Spectrum Monitoring Monitors aviation bands (1090MHz ADS-B), amateur radio (HF/VHF/UHF), FM/AM broadcasts, and more.
