<P>Hi Roger,</P>
<P>The Mercury and Penelope hardware will provide both a spectrum analyser with tracking generator and VNA. The rest is just a 'SMOP' (Simple Matter of Programming!).</P>
<P>Since Alex has already indicated that he is willing to support HPSDR under Rocky we can look forward to this in the future. </P>

(I sent this before accidentally appended to another thread. Hope those <BR>
who read it don't mind me sending it again in a new thread.)<BR>

Many on this list will have read about the clever use of a Softrock <BR>
RXTX card as a VNA for antenna analysis. See the reference to a <BR>
tutorial by the well known VNA designer, Paul, N2PK, well down the page <BR>
at <A href="http://webmail.arach.net.au/parse.pl?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dxatlas.com%2Frocky" target=_blank><SPAN style="COLOR: #ff0000">http://www.dxatlas.com/rocky</SPAN></A>(the Rocky software page). It would be <BR>
really nice to use the Ozy-Janus combination with a Softrock card to do <BR>
this. But it would need the developers of PowerSDR to incorporate the <BR>
relevant filters and GUI as devised by N2PK, or someone to write Windows <BR>
WDM driver for Janus-Ozy to emulate a windows sound card. I just <BR>
wondered if anyone is working on either of these projects (both well <BR>
outside my abilities to help with!), or should I be putting together my <BR>
audio computer with at least a 4 channel soundcard instead?<BR>
