[Linux-ham] Flex 6300 and Linux

The FlexRadio folk have gone and done it. They have an Ethernet enabled 
SDR for HF+6m at a price point that compares favorably to other HF rigs.

Now, here's the rub: The stock software doesn't run on Linux. They are, 
however, looking for people to work on this. Sounds like the API would 
be fairly trivial to get your hands on and start hacking. Also sounds 
like there are some other people already headed that way.

I know there are a few of you on this list interested in SDR that might 
be able to help with these efforts.

And as an added bonus, from the "I thought that guy looked familiar!" 
department, one of their staff (W4TME) is in Holly Springs.

Let the experimenting commence!
