Sounds like your pine-ing for the next generation of
the Flex SDR radio. Six slots so you can plug in
multiple transmitters/receivers. Open source software
so you can write the radio interface to be just
exactly how you want it. A built-in computer, and
since it's built on the format of a server chassis as
computers improve, will be perpetually upgradable.
Put the radio up on a shelf or in a closet. Oh yea
you want QSK? This radio will be full duplex. Back
to the days when men were men, QSK WAS QSK, and the
sheep ran scared.
I can hear the bleating now: but it doesn't have a
knob!!! I can't live without my knob!!!!
You are right about N4PY's software making the Orion a
wonderful radio. Thank God for Carl. If the Orion
could use the SDR-1000 panadapter tuning it would be a
profound radio. It won't ever happen though. TT
hasn't done anything profound since the Omni-V. They
just keep trotting out the same radio with yet a
little more tinsel and fringe on it. Kind of reminds
me of someone that takes a Cadillac and turns it into
a pimp mobile. Fuzzy dice errr IP address anyone?
