Fw: [Flexradio] Price Increase and 1 watt SDR discontinued

I was getting worried, with the announcement from Flex Radio that they are
discontinuing  the 1W SDR-1000, and increasing the price of the 100W
SDR-1000 by $100 to $1,500.00.  This message shows a potential alternative.
Now, if only I could figure out how much it would cost us US hams (euros,
VATs, etc...)

> Well in fact a 1 board functional clone of the SDR-1000 1W is already
available, check out www.kd-elektronik.com/af_e/sdr_e.html. Seems to be a
well-made board, and the price is right, too. Thanks to Dominik Bugmann
HB9CZF for pointing this out to me.
