This is an evaluation of performance on bands used for satellite communications, i.e. VHF and above.

If anyone is looking for an SDR primarily for HF and below, I think the Airspy HF+ Discovery is considered the best affordable option right now. If you want a good general-coverage SDR, I'd recommend one of the SDRplay products like the one they reviewed or the cheaper RSP1A.

I'm interested in HF, but I'm interested in transmitting too. It's my understanding that Airspy is receive only?
