Well,  Mike King, Terry VB, and Tony Parks and VHF UHF SHF users of SDR 
made that job easy.I just told and showed them what others were 
doing and how they might accomplish the same thing.  I hope next week at 
Southeast goes as well.

FWIW I have been using Linux since 1995-1996

I started with RedHat - then found Mandrake (now known as Mandriva)

I have tried many of the different linux distros but always come back to 
Mandrake/Mandriva.


I have found issues with most of the other distros that have turned me away 
from them.


If I had to chose one distro it would be Mandriva. Easy to install, fast & 
very stable.


I did burn some live CD's recently so I could check out some of the others 
including ubuntu, and they just are not as good in my opinion.

Hi Pete,

As Dan says the software is available from my web site
http://microsat.homelinux.org/dttsp/ (including source).

It has been on hold for a while awaiting the new version of DttSP.
Well, at least as far as releases go.  I have added support for using
with a Converter/Transverter on my development system.

Currently there is no support for the transmit side.  I plan on updating
to work with the new version of DttSP and then get to work on transmit
and controlling the SDR1000 hardware.

I am also expecting an exciter card for the SoftRock series to be
available soon that will need some support.
