+OsmoSDR is a 100% Free Software based small form-factor
+inexpensive SDR (Software Defined Radio) project.
+
+If you are familiar with existing SDR receivers,
+then OsmoSDR can be thought of something in between
+a ​FunCube Dongle (only 96kHz bandwidth) and a USRP
+(much more expensive).
+For a very cheap SDR (with limited dynamic range),
+you can use the DVB-T USB stick using the RTL2832U chip,
+as documented in rtl-sdr.
+
+It consists of a USB-attached Hardware, associated Firmware
+as well as GrOsmoSDR gnuradio integration on the PC.
