This comparison is without the Noise Reduction (NR) being on for either radio - they both sound better with it on! The Malahit in this video does have the Noise Blanker (NB) on, though. The LAN-IQ does not have any NB. The Malahit's NR is adjustable, the LAN-IQ's is not, it's either on or off. But nevertheless I am able to pull out weak signals better with the LAN-IQ than with the Malahit. The LAN-IQ is also able to display up to a 768 kHz band width which is a lot more than the Malahit's 160 kHz maximum display. You can order the LAN-IQ with an optical encoder for tuning for $25 USD more, which is superior to the Malahit. The Malahit has more options for adjusting the display than the LAN-IQ. The Malahit has more sound options so you can adjust it for good quality audio. But now I use a small battery-powered 3-band equalizer, a Koss EQ50, with which I can tailor the LAN-IQ sound to be as good or better than the Malahit. The Malahit lets you easily store and retrieve frequencies from memory - the LAN-IQ has a cumbersome process to do the same requiring a number of presses and turning the tuning knob, and restrictions on what frequencies can be stored in the first 13 memory locations. The Malahit has an internal battery (although some models may not). You will need an external power supply for the LAN-IQ - either USB power or 7.5-10V can be used. You need an external speaker or headphones for the LAN-IQ, using a 3.5mm jack - the Malahit has an internal speaker or headphone output via 3.5mm jack. I use an external speaker with both. If you buy a Chinese Malahit clone, you may get sub-standard components - mine has a bad 22 MHz oscillator that makes it incapable of receiving above about 200 MHz, and degrades the signal quality on HF. Get your Malahit from the Russian developers to be sure of its quality. Both of these SDRs are capable of picking up signals and playing them intelligibly that most other non-SDR radios cannot. I like them both, but lately I use the LAN-IQ more than the Malahit - the optical encoder tunes smoothly, and I can see 768K bandwidth rather than just 160K, as well as receive and understand weaker signals better. You would think for the much higher price for the Afedri LAN-IQ that you'd get more options to adjust various parameters - but you'd be wrong. Nevertheless the choices made by Alex the developer of the LAN-IQ work well to deliver a great little receiver. Hopefully development of the firmware will continue but that is to be seen.
sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I love any help you can give me
@Calvin Damon Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Doesn't the Malahit demo firmware offer 50KHz-200MHz. The pay for upgrade firmware offers 50KHz-2000MHz with a gap between 250-400MHz. What was your opinion of them?
test using a home-built 49:1 unun between the whip and the input of the receiver. Should then be much better. There is a video on it. Also, someone measured the current as about 300 ma.(?)... less on standby, but not by much.
What is the brand of this malahit clon, please? There are several malachite/malahit clones under differents brands: KKmoon, MiLESEEY, manovo, FLAMESER, stm32h743 and so on.. All of them work with same software? Are all of them the same thing? What are the differences? Thanks.
@Alexej Svirid I have the malachite upgrade version and its worth it you have 400 to 2ghz.its done at the factory you don't have to play around down loading the software.and also the upgrade version has a cw decoder built in which is pretty cool.
I'm listening to sound in my headphones connected by wire to my laptop, connected to my router over wifi and then connected to the internet via cable and fibre to a server that another user connected to via a similar pathway to me, when they uploaded over that connection a video which shows them operating radios which are tuned to and listening to transmitting stations....which are transmitting data received by them over the internet. I suppose, I could always just switch it off if ever it becomes a problem .... :)
you cannot compare these two receiver,malahite has not rf ADC,but has an audio ADC.Afedri is a true sdr with rf sampling 12 bit,fpga etc. That's why the price is twice (too much,in my opinion)
They need to integrate this technology into a laptop. That way you have the benefit of the large screen. Also , it would be nice to have high quality pots and mechanisms

Hi Fernando! Thanks a million for this interesting test, I think that the Malahit SRD got better clearer audio, thanks again for your time!

@Calvin Damon it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
@Eli Gatlin You are welcome xD
Thank you for the comparison Fernando. I have been interested in both and this video is very helpful.
🎉 Lovely test, thank you.
Wonder how this would be now, with the Malahit DSP-2? 😊
A very good A-B comparison. I wish others could be as intelligent. Well done.
I like the silver one because it has disco lights.
These Are My Dream Devices
hello, could you please tell me where you bought the Malahit SDR ? Did you get one with demo software and had to activate it with an activation code?
from official supplier.
will it do air
Doesn't the Malahit demo firmware offer 50KHz-200MHz. The pay for upgrade firmware offers 50KHz-2000MHz with a gap between 250-400MHz. What was your opinion of them?
Great demonstration, thank you for sharing
Thanks for this excellent comparison. Both receivers were being used on the Bose speaker? Seems that the Malahit frequently has quieter reception?
Hi,please can you tell me if the Russian Malahit can receive in AM Synch mode ? thanks 73
Very good video nice Radio I have got one myself and its brilliant well done 👏
There is a problem with Malahit-DSP using whip antenna? Also - what is compared power usage in milliamps?
test using a home-built 49:1 unun between the whip and the input of the receiver. Should then be much better. There is a video on it. Also, someone measured the current as about 300 ma.(?)... less on standby, but not by much.
Witch one is best for awl thanks mark
Does the Malichite receiver allow USB and LSB Reception in SSB Mode?
Yes if you have original one.
Мне кажется Malahit-DSP меньше шумит и АМ станции мягче принимает . uv5emr 73 !

This one is genuine
@@Djmatrane russian original?
@@trackerom6518 Yes this is Russian original. China clones is just pieces of shit
@@Djmatrane ok. Thanks.
@@trackerom6518 Please bay from Russia original one with optional filters board.
Maybe my bad, but I can't seem to find out when I am hearing which receiver. How can I know?
He points at the receiver. :)
Algum deles é bom para DX em FM ou ainda perdem para os famosos receptores Sony XDR?
This chinese clon of malahit works fine, really..What is the brand?
@Alexej Svirid I have the malachite upgrade version and its worth it you have 400 to 2ghz.its done at the factory you don't have to play around down loading the software.and also the upgrade version has a cw decoder built in which is pretty cool.
@@georgewatson6622 Your malachite is the russian original?
Hi, Great video, thank you. Where do you buy the Malahit-DSP please?
I was just checking some out on eBay there's a whole bunch of them on there
Witch one please thank you
Bom dia Fernando você tem para vender esse aparelho aí
Para comprar e aqui: www.afedri-sdr.com/
hi where you buy the Malahit ? is it a kit >/any link to this where to buy vy 73 thank you
i dont listen to anything over 146 mhz only shortwave and 2 meter..so the Malachite from 0 to 200mhz does it just fine. And a MLA 30+ loop antenna....
Hi Fernando i need guide update 50khz a 2ghz thx
I commonly see both "Malahit" and "Malachite". Which is correct? Someone needs to make up their minds.
Can you compare this sdr recivers to some popular recives ? Some degen de1103 tecsun yaesu?
both units worked just fine, i would have either of them,,
I'm listening to sound in my headphones connected by wire to my laptop, connected to my router over wifi and then connected to the internet via cable and fibre to a server that another user connected to via a similar pathway to me, when they uploaded over that connection a video which shows them operating radios which are tuned to and listening to transmitting stations....which are transmitting data received by them over the internet.

Нихрена не понятно, но очень интересно 😁 какой приёмник лучше я по этому видео не понял
Malahit-DSP from Russia

You can compare everything. Radio is Radio. This is not a quality comparison, but a comparison of the concepts.
@@FenuRadio if your looking for a screen protected the Fuji camera xlz fits perfect for the malachite.
They need to integrate this technology into a laptop. That way you have the benefit of the large screen. Also , it would be nice to have high quality pots and mechanisms
These make expensive large SDR receivers redundant. To me it looks like an Icom7300 receive side in your pocket, wooohoo
hi fernando, where can i find the case complete with knobs?
Malahit is in the left , therefroe afedri has better audio
Я понял что Фернандо итальянец и с удовольствием слушает своих земляков.

I think I'll stick to the Russians; they clearly know whart they're doing, especiallybwith the coming RF ADC
shut up and take my money $$$$$$
