RTL-SDR V2 USB Radio Receiver, 22-1100 MHz, with Antenna

A laptop and a USB port are enough to listen for signals a normal radio will not tune. This receiver covers 22 to 1100 MHz and arrives with an antenna, so it works as a software defined radio on a computer. It suits radio hobbyists and anyone curious about local transmissions.

Tune a wide band from a USB port

✅ A span wider than the FM band Coverage runs from 22 to 1100 MHz, well past the broadcast band.

✅ Tuning happens on the computer The tuner sends the signal to the screen, where software sets the frequency and the filters.

✅ An antenna comes with it The aerial arrives with the receiver, so the first listen needs nothing extra.

✅ Power and data from one port It plugs into USB and takes both power and signal from that one cable.

✅ Four versions to compare Each option is a separate version of the receiver, so check the names before ordering.

This is a receiver, not a transmitter: the tuner picks signals up, the computer turns them into audio or data, and nothing is sent back out.

The RTL2832U chip and the FC0013 or FC0012 tuner are the two parts named for this model. Which tuner you receive follows the variant you order, so read the option names before checkout.

Expect to run SDR software of your own choosing on the computer; the receiver is the radio front end, and the software decides what can be decoded. Where you put the antenna also matters: a window sill or an outdoor fixing gives it a clearer path than a desk against a wall.
