I worked in the late 1990s on a project called JCIT (I don't remember what it stood for anymore). It was a SW radio project done in Ada. The project was canceled for non-technical reasons. I don't know if any of that code is being reused on JTRS. Probably not, since doing so would make sense. -- Jeff Carter "No one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle, do you understand?
