Nice article! The only thing (besides initial price levels) that kept me away from SDR based designs for a long time is computer generated interference. That's also why the K3 shines as "stand alone" SDR.
It seems though computers/switching PSU's are finally becoming less RF noisy, making SDR much more usefull. (Perseus/netbook alongside K3 here with lineair power supplies giving virtually no interference) 73' Paul PD0PSB This was published in 2007, and makes no reference to our exalted Elecraft K3, but it's still very interesting reading, and indirectly on topic. http://www.ab4oj.com/dl/misc/dinosaur_concepts.pdf 73, Steve NN4X -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Interesting-Read%3A-Dinosaur-Concepts---why-are-we-always-so-conservative--tp3174631p3174891.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
