Hi Mike,

I think that it really comes down to time and effort.  Like many groups
HPSDR depends on the support of a relatively small number of active
developers.

If you are going to put time and effort into a new design then, assuming
the high performance does not come at an absorbatant cost/time, building
the best performing project you can seems to make sense.
