It features a 0.5PPM TCXO for superior accuracy and includes three antennas. Compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android, it's ideal for radio enthusiasts in India. All customs duties and GST are included, with delivery via ExpressBox tracked. ## Highlights - Wide Frequency Reception — Capture signals from 100kHz to 1.75GHz, including AM, FM, shortwave, air traffic, weather satellites, and more. Ideal for diverse radio scanning needs. - Enhanced Accuracy & Stability — Features a 0.5PPM TCXO for ultra-low phase noise and precise tuning, ensuring clearer reception and better signal identification compared to standard SDRs. - Complete Antenna Bundle — Comes with a magnetic base antenna, 2m RG58 cable, telescopic antenna, and two fixed-frequency masts (433MHz, UHF) for versatile signal acquisition. - Broad Device Compatibility — Works seamlessly with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android devices, making it easy to use with computers, phones, or tablets for on-the-go scanning. ## Key features - Turn your computer, phone or tablet into a radio scanner/ham radio receiver that can receive nearly all RF signals! Compatible with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android - NESDR SMArt RTL-SDR v5 can be used for the reception of broadcast AM radio, broadcast FM radio, shortwave radio, CB radio, public security radio, trunked radio, air traffic control, ACARS (plane-ground communications), ADS-B (plane tracking), AIS (ship tracking), POCSAG (pagers), NOAA and GOES weather satellites (weather images), weather balloons, radiosondes, DAB radio, DVB-T video, Inmarsat, Iridium, and so much more! - The best-performing low-cost RTL-SDR available anywhere! Compared with RTL-SDR v3, HF SNR is improved by up to 15dB, VHF & UHF SNR is improved by up to 6dB, tuning accuracy is improved by an average of 4x, and the frequency range is expanded all the way down to 100kHz - v5 has a frequency capability of 100kHz to 1.75GHz and up to 3.2MHz of instantaneous bandwidth. HF reception below 25MHz is accomplished with direct sampling and requires a suitable antenna. We recommend using a Balun One Nine to make a DIY long wire or dipole antenna (sold separately, product ID B08HGSYB7R or B00R09WHT6) - Though the direct sampling implementation of NESDR SMArt v5 is much better than any other RTL-SDR, we still recommend using an upconverter like the Ham It Up for a more fulfilling HF experience (sold separately, product ID B076CYK8XZ) - Your purchase includes a NESDR SMArt v5 RTL-SDR, a magnetic antenna base with a 2m (6.5') RG-58 feed cable, and 3 different antenna masts for UHF and VHF operation, including a variable-frequency telescopic antenna - Proudly built by Nooelec in the USA and Canada! Full 2-year product warranty and product support through our support portal at https//support.nooelec.com ## Why choose this product **Superior Radio Performance** — The NESDR SMArt v5 boasts up to 15dB better HF SNR and 6dB better VHF/UHF SNR than previous versions, with 4x improved tuning accuracy. Its expanded 100kHz-1.75GHz range and 3.2MHz bandwidth capture more signals. Designed and fabricated in the USA and Canada, it offers a premium, reliable experience for radio enthusiasts seeking detailed signal analysis and reception capabilities. This imported device provides access to advanced features often unavailable in local market alternatives. **Who It's For vs. Who Should Skip** — Ideal for radio hobbyists, ham radio operators, students learning about RF, and anyone interested in monitoring air traffic, weather satellites, or public safety bands. If you need a simple plug-and-play AM/FM radio for basic listening, this advanced SDR may be overkill. Those seeking only basic broadcast reception might find simpler devices sufficient. Users requiring specific, niche broadcast reception (like certain encrypted or proprietary signals) may need specialized equipment beyond this general-purpose SDR. ## How to use 1. Plug the NESDR Smart v5 into your computer, phone, or tablet via USB. Connect the appropriate antenna (telescopic for variable frequencies, fixed for UHF/433MHz) to the SMA input on the SDR. Ensure the magnetic base is securely mounted for optimal signal reception. — Connect the SDR and Antennas 2. Download and install compatible SDR software such as SDR# (Windows), GQRX (Linux/Mac), or SDR Touch (Android). Refer to NooElec's website for recommended software and drivers for your operating system. — Install SDR Software 3. Launch your chosen SDR software, select the NESDR Smart v5 as your receiver, and tune into your desired frequency range (100kHz-1.75GHz). Experiment with different antennas and software settings to optimize reception for specific signals. — Tune and Scan Frequencies ## Product details | Field | Value | |---|---| | Demodulator/USB IC | RTL2832U | | Tuner IC | R820T2/R860 | | Frequency Stability | 0.5PPM TCXO (max) | | Phase Noise @1kHz offset | -138dBc/Hz (or better) | | Phase Noise @10kHz | -150dBc/Hz (or better) | | Phase Noise @100kHz | -152dBc/Hz (or better) | | Frequency Range | 100kHz - 1.75GHz | | Instantaneous Bandwidth | Up to 3.2MHz | | Compatible Operating Systems | Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Android | | Antenna Input | Female SMA | | Antenna Cable Length | 2 meters (6.5 ft) | | Warranty | 2-year manufacturer warranty | | Brand | NooElec | | Model Number | NESDR SMArt v5 (100700) | | Color | Black | | Material | Aluminum Enclosure | | Dimensions (SDR Unit) | 5 cm x 4 cm x 1 cm (approx.) | | Weight (SDR Unit) | 149 grams | | Connectivity | USB Type-A | | Country of Origin | Designed in USA/Canada, fabricated by Nooelec | ## Frequently asked questions ### How can I buy an original NooElec NESDR Smart v5 RTL-SDR in India?
