These
low-cost receivers were intended for PC users looking for interesting applications
for their PCs, scanner enthusiasts and radio amateurs. It is increasingly
found in many specialized professional applications as well.
The WiNRADiO WR-1000i hardware/software package consists of the receiver card, Windows-based software, a start-up antenna and a 150-page book which provides introduction to radio scanning, many interesting hints and frequency lists.
This ISA card is I/O based and does not require any IRQ's. No cables or power supplies needed - no clutter on your desk. Just plug in and scan!
The WR-1000e is perfect for those of you who want all of the features of the 1000i but need or prefer an external receiver. The specifications are identical to the internal receiver card however it is a compact external receiver unit. The units connects to your receiver via a RS-232 interface. (PCMCIA adaptor optional)
The
WR-1000e hardware/software package consists of the receiver unit, Windows-based
software, RS-232 cable, multi-voltage power adaptor, start-up antenna and
a users manual.
