Epiq Solutions is pleased to announce that the first production of the Bitshark USRP RX (BURX) daughterboard has been completed. The BURX daughterboard is a broadband RF receiver that is capable of tuning from 300 MHz to 4 GHz, providing up to 50 MHz of RF bandwidth. It plugs into either the USRP or the USRP2, just like any other daughterboard. Additional details of this board (and other members of the Bitshark family) can be found here:
http://www.epiq-solutions.com/products_overview.php We are now accepting credit card orders for the BURX board through our website, and expect to start shipping boards by 5/7. To place an order, follow the "Add to Cart" link on the BURX product page: http://www.epiq-solutions.com/product_detail.php?line=Bitshark&product=Bitshark%20USRP Initial quantities of this board are limited. For all the folks that placed a pre-order with us, we will hold your boards for 15 days (until 5/14), after which they'll be released into the publicly available pool of boards. The GPL version of the BURX driver for both the USRP and the USRP2 is expected to be part of the GNU Radio 3.3 official release, but until then, we've set up a git repository at github with driver support for the BURX board added in. This repo can be cloned with the following command: git clone git://github.com/JohnOrlando/gnuradio-bitshark.git Then perform the standard bootstrap/configure/make/sudo make install, and you should be all set. Additional documentation for the BURX board will be made available in the coming weeks on the BURX product page, so stay tuned. -- Regards, John Orlando CEO/System Architect Epiq Solutions www.epiq-solutions.com _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
