Thanks everyone!

A project log for PortableSDR

Fully stand-alone HF (Shortwave) Software Defined Transceiver & Vector Network Analyzer. Designed for rugged portable use. Highly hackable.

I was delighted to see the PSDR made it to the top 15 in the first community vote! Thanks for your support everyone!

Update: I started implementing a crude AGC function. It works okay... I'm also getting to work on writing the display driver to use DMA so it doesn't interfere so much with other real-time operations.

That's an interesting suggestion, I hadn't thought of using it that way. Actually, my intention was that this would replace radios like the FT-817, since it will be able to transmit and receive on its own. I plan on putting a mixer so it can hit 2m, it would be pretty trivial to replace the crystal for 68Mhz instead.

One thing that I would like to see is coverage in the 68Mhz range, so it could be used as a panadapter for the FT-817, which has a 68.33Mhz IF. (see http://www.w1ghz.org/small_proj/small_proj.htm )
