Next-Generation I/Q Rigs
|
Yes, folks, time
marches on, and there are more concepts to try. The DSP audio
processing above was a start, but now there are two rigs that are
closer to being completely software-defined:
The
DSP-10 2-meter rig by W7PUA - kit available from TAPR, http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/Fdsp10.html
- nice all-mode 2-meter rig with an emphasis on DSP features for exotic
weak-signal reception
AC5OG's "Software-Defined
Radio for the Masses" - http://www.flex-radio.com/
- not a kit, but a cutting-edge HF rig that uses an advanced PC
soundcard for the DSP functions (and rig control, of course).
