[hpsdr] Books on SDR

[Chris Smith]

Hi

I have just done a cursory search of Amazon for books on SDR. First thing I noticed was the ridiculous price of these "reference" books. The next thing I noticed was the date of publication - 2007/8. Conclusion: If I was foolish enough to buy such a book it would seriously damage my wealth and be seriously out of date already.

I know that Phil Harman & Steve Ireland were threatening to write something after their series on SDR in RadCom and I was wondering whether that was likely to come to fruition anytime soon?

You guys on this list who designed/built/tested/kitted/distributed  Ozy/Mercury/Penny/Magister/Hermes and the software that goes with the hardware must be the leading authorities on this sort of DUC/DDC technology right now. You've put your knowledge to use for the community in a very practical way, for which I thank you most sincerely.

How about collaborating on a book on the subject? There is one guaranteed sale sitting right here. I'd love to have all that info in one handy volume in arm's reach.

Cheers

Chris
