[Discuss-gnuradio] [announcement] XTRX miniPCIe/PCIe/USB SDR crowdfunding

[Alexander Chemeris]

Hello all,

And almost exactly one month (vs one week) later, it's launched:

XTRX - The first ever truly embedded SDR.

Early-bird pledges are already gone but the campaign price is still lower than the normal retail price after the campaign. So make yourself a Christmas gift :)

I would appreciate any help in spreading the word, as well as feedback.

Hello, all.

Following our presentation at the GRCon'17 [1], we're launching a
crowdfunding campaign for the XTRX SDR in the next week or so.

XTRX is a tiny miniPCIe embedded versatile SDR. Up to 120MSPS 2x2
MIMO; 10 MHz - 3.7 GHz Rx/Tx range; built-in GPSDO and much more.

Answering the most common questions:

Q: Is GNU Radio supported?
A: Yes! That's how we tested all our prototypes. Check out "XTRX
Software Status Update" [2] for more details about the currently
supported software. More software to follow.

Q: Price?
A: Special campaign price will be announced with the start of the
campaign. We're still working out details, but it'll be in the range
of other popular SDRs. Also, the campaign pricing will be lower than
the retail price thanks to a support from our partners.

Q: I don't have miniPCIe. Can I use XTRX?
A: Yes! There are converters to USB3, PCIe, Thunderbolt3 and some more.
