Title: NEW High-end Quadrus SDR
Post by: Rafman on January 24, 2015, 2053 UTC

Well more than a Perseus SDR but price base for starters?
It is higher horsepower BUT I get nervous when there's no price listed

Hi All, the Quadrus SDR web shop already open and the team is ready for registering orders:
http://spectrafold.com/quadrus/order/
if you are interested in applications examples and performance have a look on their blog:

as the high-end models can support 16 channels (=16 DDCs) I am looking for application needs
for large ch count/density (~production) receiver systems
I am happy to help you in any question you might have regarding Quadrus SDR.

I'm surprised you went with a PCI card. That eliminates laptops, as well as every potential platform other than PCs.

not at all, it is very easy to connect it to a laptop with a simple PCI extender to express card:
