Understood. Yes, it's lineage of the PHY is WLAN. Our lineage is WMAN. Which is more aligned with what you do is my question Shayne. Patrick Leary M 727.501.3735 [cid:image001.png@01D05730.A60BC3E0]<http://mkt2.us/TelrdNet>

In theory, Cambium could reprogram a 450 SM to talk 802.11 if they wanted. ePMP are not SDR. They have an 802.11 chip, and they will never not speak a dialect of 802.11. When they were originally talking about their WiMAX offerings, there was talk that it would eventually have a non-WiMAX firmware load. I.E. would be SDR. Then they rebranded some Gemtek radios, and told people to stop asking about a 'Canopy' protocol firmware load. In other words, not SDR.

Thank you Jon.

I always thought SDR meant the signal processing, anything to do with making sense of the RF, happened in software (FPGA counts!). Ettus Research's USRP is a example on TX/RX. RTL-SDR USB sticks on the RX only. E.g. If, in theory, the manufacturer can reprogram it to be a FM radio (maybe you replace the transciever/amps first though).

Purewave claimed to have purchased the rights to make their own mods, that was one of their claimed advantages over PMP320. Not sure what Mercury would say now. But don't they have a proprietary enhanced (but not LTE) version now? I don't see how they do that if it's not a SDR. I assume we are talking about the part of Purewave that went to Mercury, not the part that went to Redline. If you mean was it designed to do both WIMAX and LTE with just a different software load, no, they never claimed that AFAIK. -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Englhardt Sent: Wednesday, March 04, 2015 12:30 PM To: af@afmug.com<mailto:af@afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] New feedback (Patrick Leary) PW is not SDR based So call their Distributors and tell them to change their announcements. Just google Purwave and SDR and you find some. ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************ ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************ ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************ ************************************************************************************ This footnote confirms that this email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-SeCure for the presence of malicious code, vandals & computer viruses. ************************************************************************************
