I can say this DOES work. With a single V4 dongle it works GREAT. Draws just under 2 amps at 5V.
Running 64 bit RasPi 5 w/ 8GB RAM but a 4GB would work just fine as it only uses 1.5 GB of RAM.
Also unit is equipped with M.2 board for PCIe card and boots from it. No SD card needed at all now.

Monitoring single NBFM is where it will live its life up on a hill with solar panels and batteries. :)
I also tried it with a 10 channel P25 P1 system and also works excellent under that load as well.
