5924	2011-03-16 19:54:39	Bill Kelsey	New Kit at Kanga US
I am pleased to announce that I have a new kit ready to go. Craig - AA0ZZ - has designed an Si570 based vfo/signal generator that will work as a daughter card on the PICEL III, or as a standalone unit with a control board. The Si570 daughtercard is $45, and the control board is $45. If they are purchased at the same time the total cost is $80. Shipping is $5 for one or both in the US. DX locations will be at cost. The unit works between 10 and 157 MHz with a 1 Hz resolution. I can be used with a Quadrature Sampling Detector on 80 - 10 meters, or with a standard mixer on 30 - 2 meters. The control board has two push buttons, a rotary encoder, and a 2x16 LCD. The software source code for the 16F88 is available. More info is available on my web site at: http://www.kangaus.com/si570_project.htm and on Craig's web site (includes all documentation, schematics, etc.) at: http://cbjohn.com/aa0zz/index.html The kits are packed and ready to go! -- 73 - Bill - N8ET www.kangaus.com

Bill I assume these will be available at the FDIM vendors night at Dayton ? Will you be taking pre-orders this year ? I'll certainly be wanting the VFO and controller - not sure what else yet. 73 Steve, G4GXL -- QRP ARCI Webmaster and Board Member - www.qrparci.org FDIM - Four Days In May - www.fdim.qrparci.org MyAPRS Map - www.g4gxl.com/aprs (Kings Lynn, Norkolk) Twitter - www.twitter.com/g4gxl Member: QRP ARCI, G-QRP, TAPR, ARRL, BATC, UK Microwave Group > > I am pleased to announce that I have a new kit ready to go.
