Is that like a FLDSMDFR?

I see nothing of interest. What can you do with this?

Software defined radio is the "sdr" you want to google if you feel like googling.

It allows you to tune into any frequency between 27MHz and 1.7GHz (meaning you can listen in on 2 way radios, pagers and many other products

1) "RTLSDR" is a term for certain USB digital TV (DVB-T) receivers that use the Realtek RTL2832U

2) chip which it was recently discovered can function as general purpose software defined radio (SDR) receivers.

I haven't played with my SDR dongle for a while, I'm curious how SDR-Sharp works since I last updated it.

They have added new features and altered the UI

Ooh, the Audio Spectrum window is a welcome addition, I used to have to use HD-SDR for that feature. Are you a ham or a curious listener?
Razor512
More of a listener, been having fun building antennas and mapping out the frequencies in my area. (will be getting an up-converter soon :) )

My area is a bit underwhelming as far as that goes...fairly rural, lots of hills on all sides, VHF and UHF simplex is pretty awful.
