GNU Radio is a set of building blocks that allow you to create your own radio design from building blocks. However, there has not been created a set of compatible blocks to work with the HPSDR boards. Having this would give those of us who are not software types an opportunity to create our own signal processing systems. Others can probably tell you more about it than I, and you can find a lot by Google-ing GNURadio, of course.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>But whatever you decide to tackle, welcome aboard and many thanks! <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Tom Holmes, N8ZM<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Tipp City, OH<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>EM79<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-left:solid blue 1.5pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 4.0pt'><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> hpsdr-bounces@lists.openhpsdr.org [mailto:hpsdr-bounces@lists.openhpsdr.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>chris@chrismitchellhome.net<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, July 30, 2012 11:19 PM<br><b>To:</b> hpsdr@lists.openhpsdr.org<br><b>Subject:</b> [hpsdr] Software Developer Looking to contribute<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'>Hello all,</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'>I'm a software developer with a lot of experience in C# and C++, specifically in performance and scalability optimization.
