Best Nooelec in 2026

A great addition to any radio or software defined radio with female SMA input, including our NESDR SMArt series and HackRF

8 male SMA adapters in total, allowing you to connect the following antenna types to your radio: N-connector, F-connector (aka 'Coax'), SO-239 (aka 'UHF' or 'PL-259'), BNC, MCX, PAL, RP-SMA, and SMA (female). Full list in description below

A convenient carrying case is included. Great for field use! Ample room to house your NESDR SMArt or NESDR Nano SDR

Turn your computer, phone or tablet into a radio scanner/ham radio receiver that can receive nearly all RF signals! Compatible with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android

NESDR SMArt RTL-SDR v5 can be used for the reception of broadcast AM radio, broadcast FM radio, shortwave radio, CB radio, public security radio, trunked radio, air traffic control, ACARS (plane-ground communications), ADS-B (plane tracking), AIS (ship tracking), POCSAG (pagers), NOAA and GOES weather satellites (weather images), weather balloons, radiosondes, DAB radio, DVB-T video, Inmarsat, Iridium, and so much more!

The best-performing low-cost RTL-SDR available anywhere! Compared with RTL-SDR v3, HF SNR is improved by up to 15dB, VHF & UHF SNR is improved by up to 6dB, tuning accuracy is improved by an average of 4x, and the frequency range is expanded all the way down to 100kHz

Included: Nooelec USB dongle & antenna

RTL2832U interface IC & R820T tuner IC on USB dongle

These are custom USB devices tuned for SDR and include much better components than generics

Flamingo+ FM (Flamingo FM v2) is a high attenuation bandstop filter designed to stop very strong broadcast FM transmissions from causing overload and other issues with your radio or SDR

The attenuation level of this filter is much higher than Flamingo FM v1 (>60dB typical avg. & >70dB typical max attenuation). We recommend this filter for urban environments and other locations with high-wattage FM transmitters nearby. For other locations, Flamingo FM v1 is a better option

Flamingo+ FM has a higher attenuation than other similar commercial filters, while also have a lower insertion losses outside of the stop band (<0.25dB avg.) and less of an effect on the adjacent VHF airband of 108MHz-137MHz (8dB avg. attenuation vs 16dB avg. of similar filters)

A high-quality, high-performance broadcast AM bandstop filter designed for software defined radio (SDR) applications. Includes free male SMA-male SMA barrel connector! Designed and manufactured by NooElec in North America. Impeccable quality and full 2-year warranty

Broadcast AM stations can be particularly problematic due to the high-powered transmitters used for broadcasting in some areas. These signals can overload the front end of an SDR, causing imaging and a number of other issues. As such, Flamingo AM makes a great companion to our Ham It Up series of HF upconverters (available separately on Amazon)

Flamingo AM was designed to provide approximately 40dB attenuation for broadcast AM frequencies, while ensuring that adjacent bands are minimally affected. The -3dB rolloff of the filter is 350kHz and 1900kHz. The minuscule out-of-band insertion losses means the filter can stay in place for most any application--though we do recommend removing Flamingo AM from the signal chain when not receiving HF frequencies

New! Redesigned for lower noise, better sensitivity and lower power consumption.

Design changes include RF-suitable 3.3v power supply with 1/10th of the noise of other SDRs, shielded power inductor for improved EMI rejection, and more!

You can install the SDRs side-by-side and back-to-back in nearly any portable/embedded device, like the Raspberry Pi 3, without the use of USB extension cables, removal of the SDR PCB from the enclosure, or other such hacks

The NESDR Nano 3 SDRs are installed in aluminum enclosures to greatly reduce EMI, improve performance, and facilitate heat transfer from the PCB to the exterior of the device
