[hpsdr] New Hermes board

[Berndt Wulf]

G'day Kjell,

many thanks for the information.

One feature on my wish list is an interface to provide a means of 
coherent phase reception for MIMO, beamforming, DF etc. applications, 
which, AFAICT, is not possible with the current design.

After a few weeks playtime with LimeSDR, I've started to appreciate 
streaming of 30MHz BW of spectrum and the ability to select and decode 
multiple channels, something I would be looking for in the next edition 
of Hermes.

73, Berndt
