I do not recall what the goal of Minerva was going to
be? This is not on the list of HPSDR projects that I
see. Can you update me/us on this or post a URL to a
description?<br class="">
<br class="">
For the RF consider adding a connector to a PCB and use
the Cariiboulite-6G-01 from Crowd Supply. This is an RF
capable board that can work up to 6 GHz which normally
plugs onto a RPi. It should work with other processor
bases.<br class="">
The advantage is the board is available at a modest
cost, it is built and tested, an FPGA is included so it
is possible to customize the verily for many
applications. The design is open source and the chips
are apparently available.<br class="">
<br class="">
You may also do a similar thing with an RTL-SDR but not
have the level of flexibility the Cariboulite would
offer.<br class="">

Hi all,<br class="">
<br class="">
I am in the final stages of prototyping a receive only
version of <br class="">
Minerva. The PCIe/FPGA/ADC parts<br class="">
are working. The final step is the design of an RF
appropriate front <br class="">
end. I'm afraid this is outside<br class="">
of my skill set...<br class="">
<br class="">
I would like the community's help in this design.? Any
<br class="">
comments/suggestions/criticisms are welcome!<br
class="">
I've put together a website with info and sample
schematics:<br class="">
