Woot... got my desktop... now to get SDR working

Very pleased to have received my Novena desktop unit!

Very well packaged! The build appears to be very high quality eg. very close tolerances and very precise laser cutting of parts

The tip regarding the black strip on the LCD was heeded... so no issues installing it.

The only slight issue I noticed were the screws holding the power PCB board needed tightening - the board was loose which caused a display flicker and the machine to power off abruptly when jostled slightly.

Was hoping to get the myriadRF board (SDR) working first but there doesn't seem to a how-to dummies-guide.

Installing the myriadRD board was straight forward:

1) remove the breakout board

2) install the myriadRF board

I haven't done much exploring, but it doesn't look like the drivers for the myriadRF board are already installed. And, as far as I can tell there's no SDR software installed either.

Xobs... help!?  :D

Thanks for Bunnie and Xobs (et al) for an amazing little piece of hardware.

Being able to design and build something like this boggles my mind.

Update: I'll have to dig into the [1] project to see if there's build/install instructions, or try to bumble my way through getting it setup.
