Very interesting to see this capability on some "entry level" SDRs. I have only seen this done on some much higher end hardware before. For example the AARONIA Spectran analyzers come with a very similar feature (with much greater bandwith and much faster sweeps) and a really nice "wrapped spectrum" feature that offer a very similar layout.

Audio sounds nice. Amazed me modern day radio after my days of superhets and xtal filters and a BFO. . I built a SDR a few years ago , was impressed. Only SDR I have now is the G90. I do have RTL devices as well. It's far superior to what I was raised on. Thanks again for review.

Interesting, thanks for reviewing this! I’m waiting for reviews of Rig Experts’ “Fobos SDR” before I buy any “all HF” SDR. It’s scheduled to become available in July and, while more expensive, I’m guessing it’s designed and built with much more care. Not to mention that I’d rather support a Ukrainian company than one in China.

@@RoelandJansen Not at all; I've owned two of these and each performed excellently with active (gain) loops such as the Wellbrook ALA100 and ALA1530, and passive antennas in a suburban Seattle environment (e.g., lots of RF around). The RX888 MKii SDR has the same LTC2208 ADC chip inside as the highly regarded WinRadio G33DDC Excalibur. The dynamic range is similar in these two SDRs. The main difference is that the RX888 MKii offloads the bulk of the DSP processing to your computer. That is a primary reason for the price difference between the two. I've used the G33DDC (a friend's) with the same antennas and found the two comparable on MW and HF. Bottom line-- dynamic range is not a problem for the RX888 MKii. It holds its own against my Perseus receiver also.
