FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
This is a new section started to allow asking and hopefully answering questions about HPSDR.
DOC - Documentation
Summary of current documentation available.
Quick Startup Guide
Documents to help users get HPSDR setup and working. Includes firmware upload instructions.
Support documentation
Documents for user interested in building boards can be found on the Support page.
Software links
Links to HPSDR software and resources can be found on the Resource page.
Links to the FPGA programming course by Kirk, KD7IRS -- see the Verilog page.
DOWNLOADS - Firmware and Software
Links to current firmware and software available.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
This section contains information relative to "putting the pieces together".
A complete HPSDR transceiver
This page provides an example of how to build your own transceiver using HPSDR components and other available hardware and software. It concludes with test measurements that compare the finished transceiver to other commercially available high end transceivers.
The Antec P183 Solution
This page documents an example of how to build your own transceiver using HPSDR components and other available hardware and software in a traditional a mid-tower PC enclosure. This example system can accommodate all sizes of PC motherboards up to the standard ATX. The system design will also accommodate larger PC power supplies to power RF amplifiers in the 200 - 500 watt range. The large enclosure is configured to provide a HPSDR with maximum performance.
PowerSDR Keyboard Shortcut List
This page lists all the known PowerSDR keyboard shortcuts.
