Review: It works fine, just takes time and patience - There are a ton of negative reviews here, and I'll say for sure this is not plug-n-play in anyway. The git repository had just been taken over by another author and the documentation is pretty murky. It took me about 2 hours to comb through and finally get the steps I needed to get this going on a Raspberry Pi but I am now feeding audio to radarbox with minimal issue. Some audio is surrounded by static but once the weather breaks and I can install this outside I am sure that issue will resolve itself. If you would say your technical and troubleshooting abilities are at or below average, I wouldn't try to set this up yet. Keep an eye on the github repo and once that and the radarbox site install instructions become more clear then go for it.
Review: does not work - i am moderately good with computers and have used these dongles before with zero difficulty. this product is defective, you cannot use it with the plastic case on you have to remove it then pass air over it because it overheats and stops working. this one did not even work once and im not even sure if i can return it because i threw out the plastic case it came in. what a shame.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i listen to airband comm with your airnav radarbox flightstick vhf on a windows pc -without- an internet connection?**
A: I think the answer is no.  There is a download for a 'legacy' standalone application installation, that might work without internet.  But It seems they want you to use an app (phone or ipad) or a website interface.

**Q: Is this a rtl sdr with a 118-136mhz filter and amplifier or something more than that? will it work with gnuradio & rtlsdr-airband?**
A: Hi, This receiver has an RF amplifier and a filter that is designed for the aircraft band. That makes this receiver preform better as an aircraft communications receiver. with less susceptibility to interference from strong signals outside the band.

It is, otherwise, a generic rtf-sdr radio and should work with any software that the generic receivers work with. Don't know if there are any special considerations for setting the gain, as there is an added RF pre-amplifier in this radio.

*by J***Z on February 25, 2023*

Sobre pasa las expectativas en cuanto a su capacidad para captar diversas frecuencias radiales. No es tan sencilla de instalar en el raspberry pi siguiendo los pasos del fabricante se presentan problemas de configuración que hay que ir corrigiendo, por otro lado es muy fácil de instalar en Windows
