Although I own one of these I've been busy with other things and haven't used it much.  That said, based on what I do know, I would recommend a TinySA Ultra.

 Hi,
Your best option is to spend a hundred bucks and get an RSP 1A from 
SDRPlay, any SDR will work, but the RSPPlay RSP1A works very well for a 
tool to evaluate RFI issues..  Then see:
