[QUOTE="deeptho, post: 1155716, member: 215446"] The stid135 cards are actually quite good for most purposes. For specific niche applications, other cards have advantages such as being able to tune below the regular bands, working better at very low symbolrates (below 500 kS/s), or being able to discover PLS codes. I have many cards, but the 6909x is the one I like best. The chips even have capabilities for "raw data" acquisition, which would make them very useful for software defined radio, but unfortunately due to the way the cards are wired that functionality cannot be used. With some slightly different design, the 6903X could also do more than it does now. A side reason is that there is actually documentation available. For many other cards nothing exists or can be found. Also TBS are helpful in case of problems. [/QUOTE]
