> It looks pretty impressive, having a software implementation of a full
blown
> DSP system with continuously variable bandwidth, ECSS, SSB, AGC, and IF
> frequency shift. All you supply is an IF signal in the range of 100mV, the
> hardware interface and the software do the rest. Think of it as a 21st
> century version of the Hammarlund HC-10. Although a 455KHz IF is
suggested,

range

> progress but it looks very promising.

> I ordered a couple of 74HC4060s from Circuit Specialists and and 2 SBL-1
> mixers from Dan's Small Parts to interface my Drake R8 with his software.
> The hardware interface can be built for less than $20.
> Has anyone on the list worked with Vittorio's software?
