[hpsdr] does 'SDRMAXII' happen to work with Mercury ? etc...

At the moment there is no inter operability between the HPSDR 
hardware and SDRMAXII

That does not mean there could not be.  The QS1R and Mercury hardware 
are pretty similar.  One could modify the FPGA code on Ozy and 
Mercury to emulate a QS1R -- essentially send up the same datastream 
a QS1R does.   Another approach would be to provide and adapter layer 
of code on the PC that took the existing Ozy/Mercury 
protocol/datastream and converted it to what SDRMAXX is looking 
for.   Since everything is open source I think both of these 
approaches would be feasible.

This is certainly something Phil Harman and I have thought of - don't 
know that either of us has any firm plans to do anything about it in 
the short term.   If soemone's interested in taking such a project on 
I'd certainly support 'em doing it.
