[AMRadio] Another AM'er Returns...

[Brett Gazdzinski]

I will listen for you on 40.
Its been great lately.

I just got another sdr-iq and its fantastic running hdsdr or sdr-radio 
(programs), so I can use it as a standalone receiver and drive the homebrew 
rigs with the carrier from a 32V3.

I also have a few very well working homebrew receivers, but find using a 
regular receiver makes me feel blind.

I was using a flex, but the other programs are so much better then psdr.

Last Sunday there was a very large group on 7290.
And you could not ask for better conditions.

Tell us about your homebrew receiver.
