You're referencing a 5-figure rig like the ADRV9040 I suppose? I don't work in that industry but I do dabble in SDR hobbies and I guess due to my advancing age I view this as linear progress rather than breakthroughs. Two decades ago it was $1 million worth of junk.

Yes. That's a very modern design. Lots of MIMO.. so I assume you will find that beast in cellular base stations.

I'd more see it as a huge jump in the higher frequencies.

>2GHz basically became cheap now over night.

Thanks to Claude&co. it now only takes maybe a few hours to find (or brute force ) potential registers to spit out raw I/Q streams. The last huge breakthrough there was the now rather old Rtlsdr project around the Osmocom dudes.

OpenAI seething that they didn’t pick a fucking name for their platform.
