[hpsdr] PureSignal for HPSDR/Penelope/Mercury

[George Byrkit]

While it might be technically possible, there are lots of hurdles to
overcome, and PureSignal was not designed/implemented to work on the Mercury
receiver.

1) PureSignal needs an additional phase/clock-synchronous receiver channel
to get the feedback to correct the signal.  Mercury only has ONE receiver
channel.  You'd have to hand-stack multiple Mercury boards to begin with...

2) PureSignal needs more FPGA memory space for code and everything.  A
Cyclone III doesn't really have that available for you.

3) perhaps bus timing and all are also in the way.

You should reach out to Dr Warren Pratt, NR0V, who implemented PureSignal.
