After the prior post mentioning SDR radios, and me seeing how they work
withe the web radios, I am now intrigued by the concept. There are several
DIY and assembled brands used, with SoftRock being among the best price.
However, SoftRock does not appear to be available at this time and several
other brands may be "retired" as well.

What would be recommended? I don't want to spend a fortune, but still want
decent quality, preferably covering the HF bands. SSB, AM, FM. I see a
brand called Elektor SDR offering assembled kits under $150 US. However,
some people have problems with setup and a weak receiver. Now they have a
preamp for another $75 or so.

Appreciate any thoughts on the subject.

Thanks,
