I saw a review on eham for a tiny Russian made sdr. It was called Belrig and the reviews are fantastically glowing. Some of the comments saying that this $149 radio just blows away any old portable radio, Sony, Teusum. Its cigarette box size with a thimble type know on the side.
Then I saw a Malahit sdr with a water fall display, touch screen. This radio also had rave reviews but it comes with heftier price a base of $197 and now an additional board for better hf, and quite a large receive coverage.
Just curious if any one the board have any thoughts on these radios or others, I wouldn't mind building one, but the source is so far away.
I am very aware of the clones out there, and they are everywhere.
