Non offset tee for external TV tuners

NO TEE. Warning, product names are boiling over and I bought the wrong item. This device cannot power the LNA. Generates a strong artificial signal in the middle of the Sdraharp waterfall (apparently this is normal for some SDRs), but my Rtl-SDR doesn't. I didn't have an altitude tester but it paired well with FM stations and the local AM band, as well as a 2m USB cradle. Unless you're running above 1Ghz I'd go with the cheaper and slightly more user-friendly rtl-sdr, the silver one.

Pros

Brilliantly finished

Cons
