TAPR and iQuadlabs announce agreement for SDR components

The ARRL report that the Tucson Amateur Packet Radio and iQuadlabs
have announced a sourcing agreement for High Performance Software
Defined Radio (HPSDR) development boards.

These include Pennylane, a ½ W transmitter, Mercury, an HF
direct-sampling receiver and Magister, an FPGA-based interface
controller card.

Together these boards can be used to create a high-performance HF SDR
transceiver.

Under the new agreement, TAPR will acquire inventory from iQuadLabs,
creating a one-stop source for all openHPSDR boards.

In addition, iQuadLabs will acquire inventory from TAPR to build
pre-configured and tested complete openHPSDR systems.

Zephyr Engineering, Inc will continue to manufacture the assembled boards.

Amateurs interested in exploring “next generation” Software Defined
Radio will be able to easily purchase openHPSDR components directly
from TAPR.

And, for the first time in the history of openHPSDR, those who wish to
buy a completely assembled and tested radio will have a source at
iQuadLabs.
