We have tried to source from UK or European suppliers, and only used one from the Far East, they are low cost but sometimes delivery is uncertain.

SESSIONS

A reminder of the weekly sessions planned, starting Tues 8 Sept 2015:

1 Update on the Arduino UNO & a couple of get-you-up-to-speed projects

2 VFO: an introduction to the Si5351 DDS and DS3231 RTC

3 An interlude about the use of Eagle CAD for PCB design, LTspice for circuit simulation

4 VFO: adding a rotary encoder and LCD display

6 Building the VFO_RTC_IQ kit

7 SDR: An overview of the design

8 Building the SDR_40M kit

Here's the completed prototype kits in a stack with an Arduino UNO:
