+GNU Radio is a free & open-source software development toolkit
+that provides signal processing blocks to implement software radios.
+It can be used with readily-available low-cost external RF hardware
+to create software-defined radios, or without hardware in a
+simulation-like environment. It is widely used in hobbyist, academic
+and commercial environments to support both wireless communications
+research and real-world radio systems.
+
+uhd, cppunit, gsl, lxml, numpy, orc, qwt, wxPython and Sphinx
+(this last to generate additional docs) are optional dependencies.
