What makes you say that? A software defined radio could do this pretty easily.
- bcrl 3y agoIt's pretty much guaranteed that any software defined radio you build today will be almost impossible to get parts for in 10 years, so your maintenance budget ends up requiring a software developer to upgrade things when parts become obsolete. At least with computers from the 1980s, the hardware is fully understood and can be much more easily repaired. There are already projects that have produced modern replacements for custom chips in machines like the Commodore 64, and there is at least 1 underway for the Amiga's chipset.
- uni_rule 3y agoAt that point keep everything else intact and just replace the Amiga there with a Mr. FPGA running the same thing on hardware emulation.
- cobaltoxide 3y agoReminds me of: "We do these things not because they are easy but because we thought they would be easy."
- uni_rule 3y agoI don't believe one that transmits is anywhere near as cheap as one that recieves.
