Hi

Good news!
The project got funded!

I am eagerly waiting for the end of the year to testdrive it ;)

 RM> Hi All!

 RM> There is a corwdfunding for a new Software Defined Radio.

 RM> https://www.crowdsupply.com/lime-micro/limesdr

 RM> It is a USB3 100kHz-3.8GHz 12 bit software defined radio.
 RM> Full duplex 2x2 MIMO.

 RM> It seems that it is open hardware/software and supports soapy SDR and
 RM> UHD. It is endorsed by Ubuntu as the "Arduino for telecoms and RF".

 RM> Normal price 299USD.
 RM> Early bird 199USD (sold out)
 RM> They made a second early bird for 249USD (I am in there).

 RM> Also nice for HAM use as it starts at 100 kHz.
 RM> Please beware that transmit power is very, very low.
 RM> You need an amplifier for HAM use.

 RM> You can also attach a ridiculous amount of antennas.
 RM> 2x2 MIMO with 3 receive antennas and 2 transmit antennas.
 RM> = 10 antennas ;)))

 RM> Crowdfunding asks for 0.5 MUSD, if they reach their goal delivery is
 RM> projected for december 2016.

 RM> A previous generation Lime chip is also powering the BladeRF SDR.

 RM> Sounds very interesting, maybe some of you are interested as well.

 RM> CU, Ricsi
