dear list, please excuse my unbuffered intrusion here with a generic request for advice on USRP / USRP2 matters: from what i could glean so far from list and wiki, going for a USRP2 doesn't make much sense unless i would have a system featuring a PCIe bus or doing a lot of preprocessing on the FPGA. it seems getting a PCMCIA gigabit interface will not be doing much good. since my budget will be burned for the radio hardware, getting an adequate laptop will be delayed for some time. since i aim more at RXing, the USRP also seems a better option since it immediatly supports using both ADC channels with two daughterboards instead of having to build a custom frontend for the basicRX module, as would be the case with a USRP2? thanks for any elaborations or remarks on this. regards, opt _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
