A new off-shelf low-cost echelle spectrograph was installed recently on the 0.6m telescope at the Star\'a Lesn\'a Observatory (Slovakia). In this paper we describe in details the radial velocity (RV) analysis of the first three transiting planetary systems, HAT-P-2, WASP-14 and XO-3, observed with this instrument. Furthermore, we compare our data with the RV data achieved with echelle spectrographs of other sub-meter-, meter- and two-meter-class telescopes in terms of their precision. Finally, we investigate the applicability of our RV data for modeling orbital parameters.
