I'm certainly not a lawyer either.  So far I haven't seen a TM on either
of the two 'similar' products.  Perhaps that's a point to be made.  Even
if 'we' don't intend to sue someone else, it may be a defense against
others suing us down the line if we put that notice on the HPSDR projects?
(not sure who 'us' would be, but I'm afraid it might be TAPR, since HPSDR 
is a cloud)

Originally I intended just a little humor.
