      Hi              Good news!       The project got funded!              I am eagerly waiting for the end of the year to testdrive it ;)              CU, Ricsi                     08 May 2016 21:15, from Richard Menedetter -> All:               RM> Hi All!               RM> There is a corwdfunding for a new Software Defined Radio.               RM> https://www.crowdsupply.com/lime-micro/limesdr               RM> It is a USB3 100kHz-3.8GHz 12 bit software defined radio.        RM> Full duplex 2x2 MIMO.               RM> It seems that it is open hardware/software and supports soapy SDR and        RM> UHD. It is endorsed by Ubuntu as the "Arduino for telecoms and RF".               RM> Normal price 299USD.        RM> Early bird 199USD (sold out)        RM> They made a second early bird for 249USD (I am in there).               RM> Also nice for HAM use as it starts at 100 kHz.        RM> Please beware that transmit power is very, very low.        RM> You need an amplifier for HAM use.               RM> You can also attach a ridiculous amount of antennas.        RM> 2x2 MIMO with 3 receive antennas and 2 transmit antennas.        RM> = 10 antennas ;)))               RM> Crowdfunding asks for 0.5 MUSD, if they reach their goal delivery is        RM> projected for december 2016.               RM> A previous generation Lime chip is also powering the BladeRF SDR.               RM> Sounds very interesting, maybe some of you are interested as well.               RM> CU, Ricsi                     CU, Ricsi              --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: To boldly go where no one has gone before (2:310/31)    |
