$20 USB stick for hands

Overheated and burned my hand. This thing is dangerous, I literally burned my finger trying to pull it out of the USB port.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Secret

Works great!: Satellite TV

Works great. I was able to use it on a Windows 8 system and my Nexus 6 Android. But it came back not blue as the picture shown.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...

BEWARE! LOST HOURS AND MONEY!

I give up! This thing is very complex and troublesome. It seems impossible to install drivers for every receiver software I've tried. Every package I could find was DOA! The installation requires at least a computer science degree to work. This SDR just doesn't work as advertised in my experience! Don't waste money! I regret buying this item!

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Stable RTLSDR key, suitable for semi-serious tasks.

I'm a radio amateur and enjoy tinkering with software defined radios, especially if it helps with my hobby. I've had cheaper versions of RTL-SDR keys and they tend to fall short when it comes to oscillator stability. This means a stable narrowband signal will drift when you see it on the waterfall display, and when you're trying to snag a satellite pass it's an unforgivable downside. One of the first cheap keys I bought was scattered everywhere, so much so that it was useless for anything other

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
