Give me all the Bluetooth.. at one time! I knew there’d be a perfect use case for the @rfnotmagic 1 lime daughterboard @ 122Msps.. (little overkill). Sorry, @Aaronia_AG I borrowed a boost cable, also worth mentioning I attempted adding v6 support. github.com/alphafox02/blue-d…

That is a big SDR (Allen Telescope Array)!

Hey @sama, hit us up if you wanna connect GPT-5 to the Allen Telescope Array with a lot of on-sky time!

We worked with @Ginkgo to connect GPT-5 to an autonomous lab, so it could propose experiments, run them at scale, learn from the results, and decide what to try next. That closed loop brought protein production cost down by 40%.

From the second FengYun 3F weather satellite pass today at 12:37 local, some more tests: crop of the UK/Ireland. Using the @rfnotmagic SDR @ 122.88 MHz, recorded, demodulated and decoded with the @aang254 et al SatDump software.

We have been cooking something incredible for the last few months, and it was finally revealed at Computex last week. Our hardware has a double life as a software-defined 5G UE modem. It's fully self-contained. The lower PHY runs in the LA9310, while the imx8mp uses ARM RAL libraries to take care of everything else. Cell networks today are entirely a software problem, including the user terminal!

Honestly, this. Why do we have a nanoSIM slot in a SDR? Have we gone too far? Or is something brewing?

Blown away! Just when I thought SDRs couldn’t get any cooler, the @rfnotmagic board Lime daughter board lands. Crazy ideas are brewing, maybe even an onboard DragonOS! 🚀 stay tuned, lots of cool things to come I’m sure.

Probably nothing, but if you backed our campaign ordering anything but the granita daughterboard, you should receive your hardware tomorrow.

Having a SDR RFNM driver is cool, but what's super cool is that @ryzerth only took two hours from the time UPS delivered his unit to do all this:

Thanks to @rfnotmagic for sending over a #RFNM board and Lime daughterboard to add support in SDR ! #SDR #SDRPP

Would you like get paid designing some of the next RFNM daughterboards? We are hiring a layout guy. Altium, some experience required, super bonus points if you simulated an antenna before or you would like to learn how. hireo1@rfnm.io

At MWC? Check out Vicinity Technologies at the UK Pavilion for a static display of our hardware and an idea of what you can build with it!
