Software Defined Radio

A recent construction project is this software defined radio receiver for 40m the Soft66dB2. The radio is very simple to construct and has remarkable performance using Rocky software.

I was particularly attracted to this kit as it was reasonably priced and did not use any surface mount components. I have housed it in a small plastic box using a standard "wall wart" style power supply. It should be possible to build the radio in an evening with the only fiddly bit being the winding of the toroids.
