I'm eagerly anticipating the release of the Mercury and Penelope, I 
will be used as a radio, but not just a radio. I could be used to 
form a VNA a spectrum analyzer, a frequency generator that can 
generate more than on signal at a time, there are lot's of 
possibilities with that board set.

At present what is the planned RF output power of the Penelope? I'm 
assuming that it will be in the 100mw to 1 watt range?
