So an RSPDuo will give me two receivers and diversity, and with the addition of a Raspberry Pi I can totally duplicate all the functionality here for a few hundred pounds less with greater receive capability! SDRplay need to address the pricing here, it just doesn't stack up, which is a great shame, I love their kit and up to this point they hadn't put a foot wrong.
Thanks for asking this, I would like to hear a reply official or otherwise. I'm sure some folks will prefer the single box solution (and that is understandable) but when the price difference is what it is, one has to question why not go for the cheaper option.
Please have caution that you are opening ports up to your local network... it could be better to set up a DMZ or a VLAN that you can segregate this device on so if any vulnerabilities are exploited on the device, they cannot pivot to your main machine.
Would it not be possible to use something like cloudflares zero trust tunnel ,I have just bought the device so when I get around to setting it up I will be trying that method first.
@@capnrob97 it will be fine as it doesn't actually tunnel the data in the way you may think , put it this way I been using it for my media server for 2 years and no issues.
When you was using your tablet how did you get the circle thing around the tuning as i find it very difficult to tune as it adjusts the band filter very easy
I have been waiting for a networked SDR like this ! Does it support scanning, like FM VHF/UHF/AM Aircraft...and if so how fast and how easy is it to setup etc... Thank you for giving us such great information. Morgan WW7B
Great video and information as usual there. My question: I already have an RSPdx, connected to a windows box running 24/7 as a dedicated server for SDRConnect which I access locally and via my VPN server when out and about. Other than the web interface, does the nRSP-ST offer any other benefits over the setup I currently have?
I see from the video that it's possible for up to 8 users to use the nRSP-ST simultaneously. I'm assuming that those users would need to be within the same 10MHz of bandwidth?
Hi, Got mine today but I have a problem. I can't access it via the webb. The admin-tool says No IP under the Ports section. The Web Socket/Client Port is greyed out. Have I missed something ??
Me again 🙂 The web works only on WIFI (DHCP or STATIC). With Ethernet (dhcp or static) I'll get "No IP" on the Ports-menu. Bug or miss somewhere or what???
@@thbe51 It's not a bug as we use both WiFi and ethernet all of the time. Inside the administrator tool the web client/socket port IS greyed out because it can't currently be changed from 9001. So that isn't something to be concerned about. We plan to add the ability to change this port in a later firmware update. Have you updated the firmware from the factory default?
hi i have adalm pluto sdr i wanna duplicate wave with the rx tx i wanna record the data with center freq and bandwith with sample rate is that possible? please if you can help me im stuck on it like 3 4 months
You could reverse tunnel to it via SSH and then set your reverse tunnel as your proxy, that way you can authenticate securely i.e via a cert or at a minimum a length password
@@BeneeUKTailscale puts an end to dynamic IP/port forwarding nonsense, that’s the beauty of it. All devices running Tailscale act as they are on one internal network regardless of location.
@@uncleal6095 fair point, but I wouldn't want to trust the tailscale team, they seem like a jackpot target for an attacker though you could run your own headscale, most ISPs will sort you a static IP if you're nice enough :) or will let you lease one
Hmmm, Technological marvel for certain, which likely or most often is the strongest incentive in a set of incentives for having one. Assuming it's a single receiver capable of being addressed anywhere one has Internet connection or perhaps also a WiFi connection I'd personally not opt for this device and select another quality SDRPlay receiver having dual receivers were I to pursue having a new & different toy. While these network receivers have their place I can't say I have an interest in hosting a network addressable receiver & typically when I am away from the home engaged in shopping, attending a movie, visiting friends, working in the shop, & etc listening to a receiver is not included in the activity. On the other hand if you have several homes and do not want to equip each with a radio room or if you often want to listen to the receiver while traveling to a destination it seems a perfect fit.
I don't understand this product tbh. The SDR is limited to the sdrconnect software, which is far away from being finished. No modules, questionable UI, and unstable at longer operations. The SDR has no interface for the established softwares (like SDR++, SDR# , SDRangel or Uno over EXTIO). Sdrconnect offers no direct trunking as well. So I'm stuck with a fancy analog audio only receiver für ~500 bucks, and have other option as to wait for their software to mature. After testing out the nrsp for a bit over a week, I have finally returned it today. My current set-up with one RSPdx R2 on a Raspberry 5 is waaay more flexible - and less expensive. I doesn't look so sleek, though.
Better to use Kiwisdr 2 - easy to setup and have build in decoders for DRM and many more and is the same price range
We need built in DMR decoders not DRM ..🤷
Great introduction to this nice piece of kit. Thanks.

Thanks for the great video. The kiwisdr offers similar functionality and has decoders for many modes built in.
How much is the kiwi
@@martinryan5069 in UK Kiwisdr 2 is £400 and SDR Play nRSP-ST is £460, kiwi is cheap :)

@@ciscokiduk That is what I am going to do, although I don't know if streaming a ton of data over a free tunnel breaks the terms of service.

How do you cleanly shutdown this device? Is there an option somewhere in SDRConnect that I am not seeing?
I answered this at the end of the video..
So is the admin tool windoze only, or can we use it on Unix
The admin and F/W update tools run on Windows, Linux, & MacOS for both x64 and ARM64 architectures

I use to be a big fan of SDRplay but this one seems to of missed the mark. Could you do a comparison of this and the WEB-888.
give a link where you can buy this device?
find your nearest dealer on the SDRplay website
Great video and information as usual there. My question:

Lower power consumption and it's free of windows 🙂
@@fotografm The RSPdx is free of windows too if you use SDR Connect.

its called firewall rules on a new bt router for port forwarding.
How to connect remotely on an iPhone.
Can you open it up and see whats inside? Is it just an RSPxx and a Raspberry pi + PSU??
I dont that in my first video on this. Check it out :-)
@TechMindsOfficial will do, thanks 👍

Did you update the firmware? It's the first thing you need to do
@@sdrplay7519 Yes! I'm on 1.03 now.
You know what? I enabled the WIFI on dhcp and disconected the ethernet (which is static) and now it works. I'll check other combinations on this......

Do you forward TCP or UDP or both ports? You didn't say which!
Can we use tailscale if we not have public IP and not open and forward ports?Is there SSH function for nRSP-ST?

Will SDRPlay web site offer a page of online nRSP-ST's similiar to what they do over on the Airspy web site?
That's an interesting idea for sure! Will have to wait and see.

£500 for an SDR is a joke 😕
Very expensive they are becoming a rip off the Chinese will step in again and they will decode everything as well for half the price
