Hi Steve,
One question I forgot to ask elsewhere - Is the Hermes RTL code referred to the Hermes code for the RTL-SDR dongle and HF upconvertor?

Hello List,

I have been working on a lower cost variant of a DDC/DUC transceiver which I am calling Hermes-Lite. All the details are at?


I would like to eventually have something that is similar in price to the RXTX ensemble.?The design is entirely open source and open hardware. The cost of all materials (including the BeMicro SDK board) is around $150. No sound card is required. The FPGA firmware is a port of the Hermes RTL and is compatible enough to work with existing Hermes software. The ADC/DAC is the AD9866 12-bit integrated device intended for cable modems which I have repurposed as a 0-36 MHz transceiver. RX/TX tests of my prototype show good performance. The github site has instructions for listening to the receiver online. ?

I had hoped to have a more polished project before releasing, but I am starting a new job tomorrow and will have limited time for this project. Any help on this project or derivatives is welcome.


73,
