Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [USRP-users] A good alternative for Ezcap DVB-T Dongle??

[Nowlan, Sean]

My experience has been that the EZcaps with E4000 aren’t easy to get anymore since the E4000 has been discontinued. I’ll second Rui’s notion that you should look for something with the R820T. I just picked one up last week – it seems to have much better sensitivity and much less LO leakage (DC spike) than my EZcap.

 

Look for the NooElec TV28T: http://www.amazon.com/Receiver-RTL2832U-Compatible-Packages-Guaranteed/dp/B009U7WZCA/

Hi Rui,

I was looking for alternatives because ezcap dongles are not readily available in India. When I bought one (I bought from dealextream) it had to be shipped from Hong Kong and took many days to reach me. I had to pay extra customs duty.(That any way will be unavoidable)

. I'm not averse to ezcap in any way. But I'm looking for better reliability about shipping.

If you are aware of any dealers selling ezcap, I would be glad to know the details.

Thanks.

Manu

Hi Manu,

why an alternative? I uses dongles with the E4000 tuner some cynergys. In my opinion the ezcap with the R820T tuner works better and more stable (rtl-sdr project).

Cheers..

Hi,

What are the options for a good alternative for Ezcap DVB-T dongle?

We need some RTL SDR dongles, for setting up experiments for undergraduate communication lab course. We were planning to buy some RTL SDR compatible dongles for the same. If anyone knows a good alternative for Ezcap DVB-T dongle, please let me know. Any amount of details ( specifications, available vendors) are welcome.

Thank you.
