Pros
It's purpose is to compensate for the tuning limits of your rtl-sdr device.
Cons
Not thrilled with this upconverter. Does not work as advertised. Online manual is not helpful!
Highlights
Quality
Im using it with the nooelec nesdr smart and sdr sharp software with several antennas longwire vhf uhf
This upconverter works great and is easy to install
This cable is not included with the item
The main criteria to know about is setting the tuning offset of your software to 125 mhz to compensate for the upconverter
Competitiveness
Mine is used with a nesdr dongle a raspberry pi 4b and a banggood tr switch plus an elecraft kx3 transceiver
I use it with a nooelec rtlsdr and enjoy listening to hams on 40m and 80m
The upconverter uses 125 mhz and above

As a ham operator i understand where nooelec is coming from hams like to tinker and supplying your own power for a device is common in the ham world

However in this case i strongly disagree with nooelecs decision to not include a power cable with the device they cost pennies for companies to buy in bulk and supply with their products

It should absolutely come with a power cable because it cannot function without one

The description even says it comes ready to use
