Welcome to my wiki!

This wiki covers the design of a simple, low-cost software defined radio (SDR) receiver to be used in conjunction with Quisk, a free open source SDR software. Quisk is compatible with Python and is hosted on the PyPi repository. More information on Quisk can be found here: http://james.ahlstrom.name/quisk/docs.html.

Most of the discussion following will focus on the hardware design, construction, and testing of the radio receiver. Block diagrams, schematics, and other files are available and are openly licensed. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
