[Hackrf-dev] Fwd: Group Buy? /Sick of Beige

[Tim Crisall]

ahahaha - I quit! - Ok, should anyone want to drive to Edmonton, Canada -
I'll chisel these pictures onto stone tablets and leave them out in my
front yard.

Transcription for those who can't make that far of a migration:  The case
looks awesome and #4x40 hardware works as well.

Now - with all that out of the way - I'm going back to figuring out how to
hook this hunk of galena in lead to my shiny new HackRF...
