[hpsdr] SDR-1000 interface board

Really Novel! Should be pretty inexpensive to produce. What would go on the
Project board (hardware wise)? I had to read this a couple of times. Since
the Atlas is designed to go in a PC enclosure, so too could the stack! Would
the stack be powered from the Atlas? I bet the whole shootin' match
including 100w PA could even go in an Aria enclosure with better cooling and
isolation.! If we could tame the noise on that 12 V ATX power supply card..
WOW!

Hi all,

The reason for this post is to see if there would be any interest in
an interface board to integrate a SDR-1000 stack on to the Altlas
backplane.  What I envision doing is using the SDR-1000's TRX, BPF,
and RFE board by providing a header for the board stack ( minus the
PIO board ) to plug into this interface board.  The interface board
(which will be an Atlas plug in board) will replace the functions of
the PIO board.  This includes replacing the linear and noisy switching
regulators on the PIO board.  Control of the DDS, relays, etc.. would
come from the OZY board.  The JANUS board would be used for the sound
interface.  Connection to the PC and the PowerSDR software would be
over one USB connection only - no audio cables.

This will obviously void the SDR-1000 warranty, but many of us have
older SDR-1000 units that are either out of warranty already or have
already been modified in some other way not supported by the factory.
I have a three board stack with RFE board that is gathering dust
because of continuous problems ( mainly soldering related ) with the
PIO board.   I would like to get some use out of it.

Anyone interested in such a board?
