## Overview

The ADSBexchange.com Orange R860 RTL2832U SDR dongle is a high-performance, unfiltered software-defined radio designed for professional-grade ADS-B and VHF signal reception. Featuring a robust aluminum case for heat and interference management, a wide 30-978 MHz frequency range, and a precision 0.5 PPM TCXO for frequency stability, it offers plug-and-play compatibility with Raspberry Pi for 978 MHz UAT reception. Ideal for aviation enthusiasts and professionals seeking versatile, reliable signal monitoring beyond standard 1090 MHz ADS-B.

## Description

Software defined radio dongle, identical to our blue SDR stick, except that it lacks the 1090 Mhz filter. That means it can be used for 978 UAT ADS-B in the US, VHF, VHF ACARS, and a lot more. For standard 1090Mhz ADS-B, we recommend the blue stick that includes an on-board filter for optimal performance. (B09F2ND4R6 on desertcart)

Review: Great for 978 - This works very well for tracking UAT aircraft. I have it paired to a Sawbird+ and get planes within 100nmi. One has to keep in mind these planes fly at much lower altitudes that broadcast on UAT, so they’re harder to pick up. Runs pretty warm as with most SDR’s.
Review: Easy way to add 978 MHz to a ADSB feeder. - Working for me as I added 978 MHz to my existing 1080 MHz ADSB feeder. I plugged it in, configured the SDR and then rebooted. After awhile I started to see an airplane or two. I'm in the middle of the Inland Empire, Southern Caliornia, so there's not a lot of traffic around me. I created my own ground plane antenna and trimmed the aerial to about 77cm (just about 3 inches) as I measured the SWR on a VNA. Once I had it down to about 1.6 SWR, I connected to the SDR. The only downside is the plug obscures the neighbor USB port on a typical Raspberry Pi (4 model B). Using an USB extender seems to have degraded my reception by 1/2 (-3 dB). So that's the next thing to sort out. I'm really happy with how easy it was to connect and get going.

## Features

- Aluminum SDR case for effective heat dissipation and interference reduction
- Standard RTL2832U / R860 (same as R820T2) chipset
- Unfiltered to allow use on 978 Mhz UAT ADS-B (US), and VHF, VHF ACARS, or anything else.
- Plug and play with the ADSBexchange SDcard software image for Raspberry pi to add 978 UAT reception. Other uses require user to install/configure appropriate software.
- 0.5 PPM TCXO to prevent frequency drift as temperature changes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful!
*by W***? on May 24, 2025*

Easy to set up, comes pre-configured for 978. Using a raspberry pi image, it gets picked up instantly as a 978UAT sdr, especially important when I have this and a blue 1090 on the same device. Only thing that sucks is that it's difficult to plug into the same pi and have something in the adjacent port.
