Title: Perseus replacement
Post by: ddasty on September 01, 2020, 2130 UTC
Hi guys
I've got a Peseus SDR and it's time to replace it with something new and updated .
Do you have hints?

The Perseus architecture is several years old, but being realistic, it still is one of the best SDRs available in the sub-$1000 price range. :)

Is there a particular feature or whatever not offered by the Perseus you are wanting? It might help narrow down a replacement, assuming you really want one.

BTW, much of the recent developments in consumer-market SDRs have been towards more affordable solutions, such as the Airspy HF, SDRplay RSPdx, RX888, etc.

I like RTL with the proper filters to segment the bands.

I want to do something like the Kiwi SDRs, but don't really like their politics. Is there a way to do something like Kiwi (network LAN as well as slots for remote guests, Browser interface), yet maintain it yourself, updating and adding features that YOU want to?

Hi guys.
Thanks for replies
In the past i tested Elad S2 , Rsp2 and Afredi UsB and I keep Perseus because has a good filters .
Now i want to change with something have Eth interface , rf filters and a good DAC (16bit)
My crazy idea is a flex radio but problably i will spend to much money for this Hobbie.
What about Colibri DCC or SunSDR2 ?

You could look for an RF Space netSDR on the second hand market. I've had once since 2011, and it is still my best performing SDR.

KiwiSDR politics?

These little boxes have a party affiliation?

I presume KiwiSDR does not have enough open sores for his needs  ;D

I was wondering what that meant as well.
