## Description

Included: Ham It Up v1.3 upconverter, assembled in black aluminum enclosure NESDR SMArt v5 SDR bundle including custom antenna base w/ low-loss RG-58 cable Balun One Nine v1 3 SMA adapters A full, wide-band RF solution for those interested in getting started with software defined radio and with a keen interest in HF bands. The NESDR SMArt HF Bundle utilizes a well-designed upconverter--the Ham It Up--to receive HF, NOT direct sampling hacks. This results in a vastly different HF experience--much better performance, and no loss of gain controls Included is a Ham It Up v1.3 upconverter, installed in a custom black aluminum enclosure; an NESDR SMArt RTL-SDR, 3 antennas, an impedance matching balun for longwire and dipole antennas, and interconnect adapters Proudly manufactured by Nooelec in the USA and Canada, with a full 2 year product warranty on all bundle components and 24/7 technical support availability. Please contact our support team any time if you have questions!

Review: You have to know what you are buying. - I have a lot of fun with these little devices, but someone who confused this with buying a portable shortwave radio seemed needlessly perturbed and said very unkind things about the product and its maker. I see these as components, and with the addition of some tinkering and improvement you can get interesting results. No need for vitriol towards Nooelec and their toys, when instead you can use solder and skill. ; ) It is really just a fun rainy day project. Some people should buy a Sangean or CC Crane radio instead (I use both categories depending on my goals).
Review: Bundle - It's an OK buy, the v4 is better

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You have to know what you are buying.
*by R***D on June 15, 2026*

I have a lot of fun with these little devices, but someone who confused this with buying a portable shortwave radio seemed needlessly perturbed and said very unkind things about the product and its maker. I see these as components, and with the addition of some tinkering and improvement you can get interesting results.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Bundle
*by D***I on October 6, 2025*

It's an OK buy, the v4 is better

### ⭐ Absolute garbage: How it is still being sold is a mystery
*by U***R on May 31, 2023*

Nooelec has been pandering this garbage for years. How much money they have embezzled is anyone's guess but it is a mystery why Amazon continues to offer it. You might pick up a shortwave radio station, as in one, but you would be far better off using the online receivers than these hardware gimmicks. It's junk. It has never been anything more than junk. There is no customer service and Nooelec refuses to respond to customer observations directly. Do not buy. Period.
