    I've had a WinRadio 1550E for I guess two years, and it's a fair receiver
    -- the strong signal handling performance is fairly dismal, and I have some
    situations where it seems like the PLL goes out of lock or something and
    you get a lot of grunge on the audio.

    The software is pretty open, but the hardware isn't -- they don't provide
    any schematics so, for example, getting an IF signal out is pretty hard.

    The linux stuff is promising, but it seems like the work fizzled out and
    it's not all that usable at present, if you want to do the things a normal
    radio user would expect.

    73,
    John
