Ham It Down Downconverter

How do I set up the Ham It Down with my NESDR?

We recommend setting up your SDR first, using our Installation Guide: “Getting Started with NESDR”. Once you have the SDR working as expected, you can then connect the Ham It Down.

Set-up instructions:

• Connect your antenna to the Ham It Down Input;
• Connect your SMA male to SMA male adapter to your SDR;
• Install your SDR/ adapter to your Ham It Down Output;
• If externally powering your Ham It Down, plug your USB power source into the USB jack. If using bias tee power, the Ham It Down will require 200-220mA of current from the SDR. (Warning: do not power your Ham It Down with more than one power source at a given time)
• Fire up your favorite SDR software, adjust the tuning offset to (+)1.5 GHz and tune to your desired frequency. Alternatively, you can tune to your frequency of interest minus 1.5 GHz. Enjoy!
