[hpsdr] (no subject)

[Joe Martin K5SO]

The fact that you're unaware of anyone else doing any software  
development certainly doesn't mean that no one is doing any.  As a  
matter of fact I (and several others too) am actively helping with the  
initial development of Phil Harman's KISS Konsole framework code to  
run the HPSDR boards outside of PowerSDR.  The KISS Konsole program is  
only in its infancy right now but the work is being done (daily)  
entirely in C# (as opposed to C, C++, and C# for PowerSDR) so that  
more people will be able to make their own changes, compile the source  
code, and produce executable versions with current software tools that  
are inexpensive.  Since I'm not a professional programmer my  
contributions are slow go but I am spending plenty of time on it and I  
will see it through to completion because I want to use this program  
for radio astronomy as well as HF and EME communications in the end.

Granted, Bill is  certainly a tower of strength for us in his  
monumental effort to support HPSDR via PowerSDR mods and I thank him  
profusely for his selfless efforts on our behalf in that regard but I  
also think there are many including me that would like to have another  
realistic option to it, something that we can realistically work on  
ourselves to produce specific capabilities that PowerSDR doesn't permit.
