    Is this the new model???

    • Yes.

    Been using Airspy and the spyverter for two years now without any issues at all. I have mine running nearly 24/7. Its a great SDR for rx applications and performs very well.

    Not sure why the above guy decided to ask a question and leave a 1-star review for it.

    Do you have shipping to Colombia ?, what price does it have with shipping?

    • We do. Shipping would be as quoted in the checkout.

    This has become my new favorite general purpose direct conversion SDR front end, at least for VHF/UHF. About the only way to make it better would be to use direct sampling, but it’ll probably be quite some time before such a thing for VHF and UHF is affordable.

    The Airspy R2 is a lot better than the cheap SDR dongles that I have, but is buggy using USB 3.0 slots. I only have one USB 2.0 slot so this is fine for now, but it would be great for Airspy to update their USB drivers to support USB 3.0 slots better than currently. I tried the USB drivers at Airspy and Windows says they are outdated. My Airspy R2 would recognize the USB 3.0 slot one time and the next time would not. I did take my case off to find that the Airspy R2 was made in August 2015 with the Rafael Micro R820T2 chipset, but was hoping to get a newer model. The only difference is the Rafael Micro R820T2 vs the new Rafael Micro R860 chipset is said to be the same. No one has reported any SDRs with the new Rafael Micro R860 chipset so far with the web searches I have done, but Airspy does advertise it on their website. Overall, I am please with the improved signals and lower noise, but wish for better USB handing in the newer motherboards of today, which are seeing less USB 2.0 slots on motherboards.

    The product was ordered to Canada on February 9th.

    Using third party tracking have been giving me estimates of “tomorrow” for the past few days.
