Many thanks to Dave Zantow (N9EWO) who relays this info regarding the new NRD-383 via Takahito Akabayashi:


[The JRC] NRD-383 is sold by “Defense Systems Sale Division” of JRC, so this SDR receiver is especially for military use.

The price is more than $50,000 [each].

The headphone jack on the front panel doesn't make any sense if this is a SDR.

Well, shoot I was getting ready to pre-order the radio-puter and just checked the old 401k. Looks like I just have to put off the purchase a little longer.

It would not be the first SDR to have on board DAC (example QS1R), this is done to minimize audio latency.

Before the computer gets the digital data? Are you saying that a radio product will come out of the headphone jack before the data goes to the computer?
