Hi All,
I've been following the (lowcost) GNU SDR HW development in progress
since it started.
I sure do not oppose to what you are doing and hope you succeed, but
is it practical today?
Practicality is a very important aspect of any project like this, and
it's one that needs to be explored.
Many components that you would choose aren't practical for amateur
assembly, and once it's assembled, what kind of
test equipment exists out there to help with verification, etc?
The SDR-Widget + UHD-SDR makes a pretty-good combination, and clearly
has been assembled by amateurs. But if you
want to move beyond that class of capability (greater bandwidth,
etc), how "practical" is the result for amateur assembly?
How practical for professional assembly with amateur-scale pricing?
All critical "up front" questions, to be sure.
