Review on 📻 Full Band UV RTL-SDR USB Tuner Receiver - 100KHz-1.7GHz - R820T+8232 Ham Radio by Michael Herrera

I ordered two devices and wasn't expecting much for the price, but both were broken. They worked with standard RTLSDR software and I could hook them up to a computer and receive HF from them, but they didn't work with HF. In fact, I suspect the HF connector on them isn't connected at all, since when tuned to HF frequencies it can only receive strong signals when connected to the VHF+ connector. On the HF port it was just a shallow waterfall. I have a huge 160 m 1/2 dipole 60 feet away that I use to pick up signals from all over the world so that's not my antenna. I'm disappointed because it had the potential to be a good cheap HF RTLSDR. The cases even had a good form factor, and mine were pretty solid. I will have to return mine as it doesn't work as advertised. I hope whoever makes them can include some basic documentation and fix any issues.
