Re: Survey regarding GNU radio usage in amateur radio

Adrian,

Here are my answers to your survey;

1. Yes
2. Attempting to provide a complete transceiver for a Softrock/MOBO
4. It has a very steep learning curve which will keep the majority of hams
from utilizing it. However, it's block nature allows RAD which is very
attractive for SDR development.
5. No

Subject: Survey regarding GNU radio usage in amateur radio

Hello,

I am doing a survey regarding the topic of GNU radio usage in amateur radio
activities.
This survey is aimed at GNU radio users who are also amateur radio
operators.
The result of the survey will be published in an article freely available on
the Internet and may also be translated to other languages for reading by
other amateur radio operators.

Your contribution to the survey will remain anonymous unless you express a
wish to have author attribution for the answers.
You should be comfortable with the license of publication which will be one
of
Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license or GNU Free Documentation license.
You may reply directly or send me the answers privately. The date limit for
answers is 30 December current year.

I will ask you to respond to the following questions (you may omit questions
where you do not have answers):


1. Are you actively using GNU radio in amateur radio activities?


2. If yes, how are you using GNU radio, please provide some details.

3. Do you think GNU radio and applications using it solve some specific
problem
for amateur operators which is not solved by other free software DSP
libraries, or, on the contrary, do you think it should implement a solution
that already exists elsewhere?

4. What would you consider strong and weak points in GNU radio when related
to
amateur radio usage?

5. Is your local amateur radio community generally aware of the existence of
GNU radio?

6. If you have any authored / co-authored published papers, talk slides,
seminars etc. related to the topic of this survey, can you provide a short
description and a link if available?

7. Are you involved in research projects which use amateur radio
crowd-sourced
data, and if so, can you provide a short description of the project?

8. Do you have any suggestions for raising general amateur radio public
awareness of free software in general and specifically GNU radio?


Thanks in advance for answering.

Adrian
