[hpsdr] List Lull - a few announcements and info

[Don AE5K]

Wow!  Over 48 hours without a message posted to this HPSDR discussion
list -- I think that is a record.

So that we don't start getting "pings" (where's Eric E. been?), I'd like
to take this opportunity to mention a few things.

As of tonight, we've reached 450 on our subscription list and it
continues to grow as the word gets out about HPSDR.

The hpsdr.org web pages are getting a little outdated, so one of these
days I'll try to update them.  But, of course the Wiki continues to be
the latest information.  This past week has seen some additions to it,
including some interesting results by Bill KD5TFD on a "Op-Amps Bakeoff"
(see Janus).  Apparently, some of our list members don't know about the
HPSDR Wiki.  Easiest way to find it is to point your web browser at
http://hpsdr.org and then click on "Wiki" on the left side area.

TAPR is currently stocking and selling the Atlas backplane and the
extender card (Pinocchio).  http://tapr.org

What about Ozy and Janus?  Since we all want to "get it right", both
boards are going through a second "alpha" spin to really make sure the
changes made in the first alphas (mostly minor) are what was intended.
Once these second alphas get the OK, I think you can figure on more
rapid action.

The above information, by the way, is *unofficial* but I believe it is
accurate.  The developers *have* been very busy -- so just because you
don't read a lot of news on this discussion list does not mean they're
asleep.

We all look forward to Ozy, Janus, and other parts of the HPSDR total
project.
