<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We barely had a quorum Tuesday. Another
conflict with the CLC. They need to change their meeting night. Alternatively,
we could pick a different time for the SDR meeting. If you have a
suggestion, please make it to the list. It was suggested that maybe
noon hour was better, but getting started and ending on time become more
of an issue.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Greg passed out another few pages from
F4DAN http://f4dan.free.fr/sdr_class_eng.html This
is the magic decoder ring to the material he discussed last week.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We discussed splitting the SDR development
into two parts:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- sampling</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- rf</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We are letting each area strongly influence
the other. If a sampling method can be determined, real work can
be started on that topic. The goal being the determination of:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- a sampling rate</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- determination of beagle IO bandwidth
limitations</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- FPGA requirements dictated by rate
and bw</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Once sampling is defined, then the rf
folks can determine a conversion scheme. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">No revelations here, just trying to
focus on the sampling issue.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We talked about who else might be a
good addition to the project and a few names were suggested. Chris
Beamlander next target. If you know/see Chris, "encourage him"
to participate.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Any other names???</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hope to see more of you next week.</font>
