From my experience, he probably won't be able to leverage this to relocate, precisely because it is a bit military-prone and these things require clearance only a citizen may get.

SDR was actually an area I worked on while at college, and a bit in a few companies after that. Both CPU-based and FPGA-based, on the early days of GNU radio.

There's some niches SDR and RF may get outside military use: RF-based instrumentation (I currently work on a particle accelerator), TV and Brodcast equipment (I also worked before in these areas), but these are VERY niche.

Well, if anyone knows about some interesting opportunity that resembles this, I'd be glad to hear!
