Thanks Mal,
Tom , wired them direct last night
.... interesting
angle , seems they have dropped half
of a
normal dongle into a docking
board , The
issue I was interested in was the Ae
feed
for low bands , and from the image ,
its visible ,
that the feed is single ended , via the
toroid ., he
also plotted the gain , which falls
off to
LF , which is similar to the device
being
Cap coupled , both are single ended
methods ...
100KHz is listed as the lower
operating
frequency , in this case its possible
the transformer
is the reason ......
I think a small pre-amp [ 10 dB
?] with
gain roll off to HF would be a
better
option , as the chip works in
a direct
coupled set up , down to audio , a pre
amp could
also provide the ~~ 200
ohms input match as well
But for round £10/15 supplied
as-seen not
a bad option

Hello Graham,

Tom,
At least its running !
Yes it
is and not so bad!
'' only the
q-input
works''This
only means
that if you click the ExtIO button at the HDSR user
interface "RTL Setting"
offers to you at Direct Sampling "Disabled" (for
VHF/UHF), "I input" (no
stations at HF, only noise) and "Q Input"
(stations at HF).
Do I
assume,
that they are using a single
ended feed
for the low band
?Having no
datasheet for the
RTL2832U I´m not sure about this. As you can see on the
picture enclosed at the
lower side of the pcb there is a small ferrite toroid for
the HF signal with two
output wires, first being fixed with silicone on the
RTL2832U housing and then
going to two adjacent pins of the IC - whatever this means.
Is there
some form of pre-amp / pass
band
filter before the input
?There
is no pre-amp but you
can see a two stage low pass filter on th left side of the
ferrite toroid (two
coils and 6 capacitors)
