Pretty slick, but looks to be very costly.

Universal Radio is blowing out Commradio CR-1 SDR. Looks like a standard tabletop receiver, w/ enough knobs and buttons to occupy Al, but at it's heart it's an SDR.

It's about a tenth of the price of that Commie spy box and made right here in the good ol' USA.
