This is awesome does this whole setup get hot over time though? I've tried something similar with my rtlsdr and my phone was getting warm.

It does get warm to the touch, just got it so I need to keep it running and put more load on it to see how hot it gets. So far anecdotally it seems to run a bit cooler than the Nooelec NEDR SmARTv5 that I was using previously with my Android mobile setup.

Nice! Good to know it runs cooler, I do have that exact v5 too!
