Scotty Cowling WA2DFI from HPSDR and TAPR; Jared Boone AF7SO from ShareBrained Technology and Great Scott Gadgets (HackRF); and Steve Hicks N5AC from FlexRadio Systems team up to make this engaging presentation from their points on the SDR ‘spectrum.’ As you’ll see, the room was SRO (crowded and hot).
Scotty’s up first.
Jared hits at 20:58
Steve starts at 36:50

I’ll point out one thing that was missing: the other guys. Our team acknowledges that SDR is the future, but they didn’t make any specific references to some of the newer players who are stepping in.
