Eric Blossom of GNU Radio visited Europe one month ago.
Some radio enthusiasts in the Netherlands where interested in the
GNU radio project. So I asked Eric if it was ok to make a video for them.

The resulting two video clips are online (in MPG / VCD quality).

GNU-radio_intro.mpg and
GNU-radio _Q_and_A.mpg

A zip containing these two video files can be found on :

Enjoy, and feel free to mirror / distribute them ...

With regards,
