gengst 1 post Popping In	19-06-2007 23:41 I received my readybuilt card today, and put it into operation. Compared it to my ICOM R-71 receiver. Amazing, my ICOM gives a little bit better S-meter reading, but nothing else differs. You have produced a very good software receiver. Thanks a lot. I did some test on different computers and realized that the soundcard quality is very important. Best performance I got with my Delta 44 card. The antenna is also very important. Tried it with a short (2meter) wire, no good result. Running on my 20 meter dipole gives excellent result. /Gunnar
Morseman 1 post Popping In	05-08-2007 14:48 I've just put an order in for one, so will be watching for the post arriving next week! I was going to get an SDR-IQ but they always seem to be out of stock. I know the Elektor unit is 150kHz - 30MHz, where as the SDR-IQ claims to go much lower, but at least I'll have something I can have a play with.
