![]() I've also used OS software running under Linux to edit and typeset a book of music. I also use Open Source software for most of my (work) RF/microwave hardware design activities. I have used Libre Office, and its predecessor Open Office, running under a variety of Linux versions since the early 2000s for producing documents for both professional engineering and amateur radio purposes which have never misbehaved when run on Win machines. Windows argument, but my experience of Linux has been quite the opposite to Alberto's. I really don't want to fuel a pointless Linux v. I won't sell the S2, but it will be put on the "back burner" doing some routine radio tasks rather than my main radio. When said sdr will install in Linux with a simple installer package, I'll buy it immediately. I'm presently in the process of looking for an sdr that will give approximately the performance level of my S2 (within a reasonable price range) that will operate under linux without me having to be a Linux guru. I don't like "kludges" to get a radio working. The Elad FDM-S2 is the best radio I've ever had, and not having the S2 work under linux is the ONLY reason I haven't been able to reach my goal of dumping Windows for good. As one poster mentioned, probably due to time constraints, a "full blown" linux installer package will most likely never happen. I'm definitely not a linux guru, thus I've failed to get my S2 working with those files. There are some files available to get the Elad sdrs to work under linux using the GNU radio environment. ![]() The topic has been brought up before about getting the S2 working with Linux, and now by logical extension, the duo. I'm not going to add anything new here, just a general response to the question of Linux and Elad. ![]()
