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

[Alexander Chemeris]

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.
