Description

For full product details, please visit the product page at nooelec.com! Proudly designed, fabricated and assembled in the USA and Canada! The Ham It Up Nano is an HF upconverter that will allow you to extend the range of your favorite SDR or radio down to 100kHz. It is compatible with any radio capable of 125MHz-190MHz operation (to utilize the entirety of its 100kHz-65MHz frequency range). It is installed in a black aluminum enclosure and includes a male SMA to male SMA connector and microUSB to DC adapter. It is important to note that some SDRs will have their ESD protection diode tripped when powering this product via USB. You can still use this item with these SDRs, but you will need to install a DC block between this and the SDR. Features: ✅ Small, light-weight module--just 2.0" x 1.2" x 0.75" (50 x 30 x 18mm) and 1.6oz (45g)! ✅ 3 different powering options: bias-tee, microUSB and DC barrel connector ✅ Contains an internal 125MHz low-phase-noise TCXO w/ 1PPM accuracy for improved sensitivity (away from high-traffic RF zones, like broadcast FM) ✅ Double shielded from external RF interference (EMI) with the external aluminum enclosure and an additional internal EMI shield ✅ A maximum input level of +1dBm ✅ Contains 3 filters--input, output and LO filters--configured with ultra-high quality components for excellent sensitivity and selectivity ✅ ESD protection on both the RF input and output to protect your Ham It Up & SDR from stray static discharge ✅ Reverse voltage protection and short circuit protection on the USB power input to protect your Ham It Up from accidental damage ✅ Ultra low-noise linear power regulator with voltage noise under 10 µVRMS! ✅ Side-mount LED power indicator ✅ Sturdy right-angle 50 ohm SMA connectors used for both input and output ✅ High-quality PCB with ENIG finish

Ham It Up Nano - Tiny HF, MF & LF Upconverter w/TCXO.
I used the Ham It Up Nano - Tiny HF, MF & LF Upconverter w/TCXO. With the Nooelec RTL-SDR v5 SDR and SDR Software. The Up Nano - Tiny HF, MF & LF Upconverter w/TCXO. Works great if you do not need a low noise amplifier. You set your SDR Software to use the Ham It Up Nano. And off you go now you can get from frequencies from 100kHz-65MHz, . Note: If your Antenna is design to pick up the range. But you will need to buy a 5V 10A Power Adapter 50W Universal Travel Charger,100v-265v Adapter Transformer Charger with 5.5x2.5mm DC Output Jack for WS2812B WS2811 5050 2835 LED Strip/String works the best You could go down to 6A. I found that No noise is injected for this power supply . To put it and other way NO humming sound, The cheeper power supply will give you a humming sound. Not good. Over all a good system with the SDR Software. ... show more

Works really well.
Well designed unit. I'm and engineer and I measured all the specs (naturally!). The Nooelec up converter meets all of it's specifications. Works much better than any RTL USB stick with direct sampling at HF frequencies, because with this unit you get full control of the RF gain. You can't control the RF gain of a direct sampling RTL Stick at HF frequencies normally. I use this with a ADALM-Pluto for HF coverage. Works great. ... show more

Very good device
I blindly bought a bunch of the SDR add on devices. Once I figured out what this does and what it's for. Definitely a must for the NESDR V5. Was curious if it would hinder the quality of some of the signals I had been able to receive, definitely not. Easy to use, very good quality, good price. I've been using this for over 2 years now. ... show more

Great way to get into HF, way better than RTL-SDR direct-sampling
This is my first upconverter, and I'm pleasantly surprised with its performance. Previously, all I had was an RTL-SDR with direct-sampling mode, which was able to get acceptable reception, but only with a very large outdoor antenna hung up in a tree. In comparison with this thing, it's night and day. This can easily catch the same signals with a small indoor antenna, usually with even better SNR. My one complaint is that its local oscillator is not very precise, which makes it harder to tune accurately to SSB signals. It's definitely more than good enough, though, especially for the price. If you want to get into HF, but don't have an SDR that can get down that low, then this is just the thing to get you started. ... show more

Gonna order Nesdr biastee and DC Block and repost review...
For two years I thought my HamItUp nano was defective. All that missed fun, dang. Then I smartened up and purchased a DC Block from Nooelec and installed. Powered nano with micro usb. This thing works excellent! The support from Nooelec is excellent, but only when applied!

Lab Tested: Completely Non Functional!
I paid 60% more for this defective product than for my RTL-SDR. Apparently I was unlucky and got a dead unit. But if they don't test them before shipping then you may get a dead one also. So be Warned. After using I was suspicious. I connected my Sig Gen with 13.7 MHz at 20mV. Using my scope as a Spectrum Analyzer there was no signal at 125MHz +-13.7MHz. Not even leakage from the 125 MHz Osc measured with a -118dBu noise floor. The LED works for Bias-T and USB power. I will NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER nooelec product. ... show more
