I think the most significant difference between the FCD and the Softrocks is
FREQUENCY, isn't it? Are there Softrocks that will do 64-1700 MHz?
I don't remember for sure, but I thought

For someone who already owns an Icom R-7000, a $20 Softrock kit with the
appropriate crystal for 10.7 MHz, connected to the IF output and a good sound
card, will be able to display a 96 kHz bandwidth. The Softrock in this case

Some information for you.
We are already looking at having these distributed and manufactured externally.
The extreme demand was not what we expected I'm afraid. Please understand that
to make these I have to personally invest several thousand dollars up front,

Hello Gordon
Thank you for your comments.
In case you didn't know it, the original manufacturers for the FCD pulled
out one day _after_ they were due to deliver to me. That has meant that
rather than having time to fully document the API and provide a full
interface, I have had to build the

What we need is an Ethernet interface to USB that uses POE. This
has got to be out there already.
I would put quite a few of these in remote locations for monitoring
a whole lot of things.

Remember that there are USB
What you need for that is a version that uses a PIC32MX7xx (easy port if there
was source available and no NDA) that has a built in Ethernet controller (needs
external PHY but that's not a big deal). Then the PIC32 could either decode
narrowband and send audio back, or more likely I/Q over
