Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Comparison between GNU Radio and FlexRadio

[Rafael Diniz]

Considering the hardware, I think that for ham usage, as you said,
FlexRadio is more ready-to-use, but usrp, equipped with the correct
hardware, allows you to do much more things, and also it can work with a
much wider bandwidth.
But I don't own a FlexRadio, and don't know about it's intrinsics.
I'd also like to hear more about a USRP/FlexRadio comparison too.
