I have one of those that I've used to listen aound on VHF using SDRSharp. It
works well, although with poor sensitivity on the supplied 6" mag mount, so
it is pretty much limited to FM broadcast or transmissions from the airport
1 mile away. I also have a Paragon and am very interested in your panadaptor
project. Please keep me informed as to how you tap in to the IF should you
proceed.

I was thinking of providing a buffered 70 MHz output from the IF in my
Paragon II to drive one of these:

The idea is to gain a cheap panadaptor display for the rig. What would be
a good program to use with the dongle? Is PowerSDR or PowerSDR-IF
compatible for what I am thinking about doing?
