Review on 🔊 Nooelec Lana - High-Performance Ultra Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) Module for RF & Software Defined Radio (SDR) with Enclosure & Accessories. Versatile Wideband 20MHz-4000MHz Frequency Capability with Bias Tee & USB Power Options. by Anna Goetz

Like other Nooelec products I've bought this LANA amp is well made and works as advertised. You need to filter out any other interference such as B. 14.5 kW Radio Amor 100.3 FM, or you end up amplifying both the interference and your signal. However, with an FM filter from Nooelec I can get a lot more signals in the 1-2 GHz band. I use this amp with SDR Play 1A and use its bias tee to power the amp. With this power supply I don't have to put a DC block in series with the receiver. If you are powering the amp via micro USB, consider purchasing a Nooelec DC power supply or another brand DC power supply. The gain range is from 20MHz to 4GHz, so it doesn't do anything for RF signals. I found the amp to be quiet and had low insertion loss. The low power consumption of 85mA makes it ideal for SDR Play. Some reviews have said the amp isn't working, but note that the power LED must be pointed at the receiver or you'll only see noise and think LANA is working. This is a well-made general purpose RF amplifier. I love Nooelec and their well made, expensive products with cool names. Get one, it's fun to play with.
