,----[ Quote ]
| The Communications-Electronics Research,
| Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC)
| is creating a Software-Defined Radio lab
| that will work with the Navy Research Lab
| to transfer work done previously on the
| Joint Tactical Radio System to the GNU
| Radioâs open-source, free software
| environment.
|
| Tim Leising, director of the Software-
| Defined Radio lab at CERDEC, said his group
| is focusing on developing and testing
| future software defined radios with the GNU
| platform to promote collaboration and
| information-sharing via network
| connections.

It smells like a smear. The Microsoft-funded IDG
people mention Unabomber (who had a manifesto) right
after the Gnu manifesto. Coincidence? Intentional?

GNU Radio: the open-source software defined Radio
,----[ Quote ]
| GNU Radio is an open source Software Defined Radio (SDR) project that was
| started about ten years ago by Eric Blossom, an electrical engineer. The main
| idea which is behind this project, as its founder says, was to turn all the
| hardware problems into software problems, that is move the complexity of a
| radio equipment from the hardware level to the software one, and get the
| software as close to the antenna as possible.
|
| [...]
|
| The GNU Radio package is provided with a complete HDTV transmitter and
| receiver, a spectrum analyzer, an oscilloscope, a multichannel receiver and a
| wide collection of modulators and demodulators.
