Will do bud

[@CBRadioOperator]

wow now you are speaking my language brother , I have been into interfacing radios with , things like arduino and RPI , and pc's for a while now. Love this setup ! I have similar boards all over 73

[@1883GotDown]

Nice... it worked great man ran it for 7 days 24/7 with no issues at all. Put on a tunner and even ran ft8 on 12m gor a day and it worked great man! Now I just need to remake it on a real board and make it smaller so I can mount the radio and get my a computer 🖥 put up close to it so it csn be doing it's things... I'm at over 100k contacts on ft4/ft8 for the last 4 years lol

Yep... Both sides... Nice work!

[@1883GotDown]

So you have respect for both sides huh?

[@PopeyeKF4LBG]

@1883GotDown Yep... I have what I need to work digital modes. I have yet to wire it all up, though... 😄 That 991 is a jewel! My FT450AT is still working great so I spend my $ on other things... Just to let you know... I got my lil' dx250 and that 4 pill Palomar working because of your help. Now I need a real GK heavy hitter amp for the shack! Thank you brother...

[@nitestrykerx01]

I made one where I wired a 3.5 m jack into the mic so you have to key down but it worked I could play sound clips directly from my phone into my radio but I like your design vol put is handy

I use Bluetooth and a summing adapter.

[@1883GotDown]

With Bluetooth ID still need this circuit right? Just make it so I don't need thr cords? Now that is something I'd love to have so I don't have these cords all over the place

Hay man i was playin around tryin to do this . Anyway i got mad at it and tossed it off to the side ,that was about i guess a yeat ago. Oh i was tryin to use a rspberry pi 4 to do this with a sinal link usb on gmrs and zello. Needless to say i got my ass handed to me. Anyway . I would like to know if your planning to fit this to a box . I would love to buy one. Great video. I am very interested.

[@1883GotDown]

Yes I'm planning to do a professional board using 600:600 isolation transformers and all. I habe a buddy that got one working on zello perfect and I can connect to his zello and talk on his radio

[@thatfonkyhonky336]

brother i made a perfboard PTT for JS8call that i use on 11m. working on getting a flatside antenna up soon. kinda a low-priority shits n giggles thing

[@1883GotDown]

Dood imagine over 130k contacts 90l confirmed LOTW the last 3 years i always thought it would be sweet to do digital on 11m.. maybe even make a page for free band etc... you'll see the EU guys doing one called DOS which is a super old one. Is there an issue making JS8 work put of band I noticed wsjtx won't let you key out of band. I use MSHV for contest and I can with that... mantjay would be sweet doing digital using freehand call... 2WR1883 lol

[@thatfonkyhonky336]

@@1883GotDown js8call had no problem freqwise. i was using a uniden PC-122 and ch25USB is where a lotta europe is. i suppose using the A channels would be more ideal

[@jethrobodine9617]

You've got (2) 980's... 🤣

[@1883GotDown]

True I needed 10m witj this bad boy :)

[@beekeeper8474]

Is that ft8 running in the background? Yup lol like to score a 991a and i can leave the 7100 in the truck.

[@1883GotDown]

Yes sir.... on 10m ive kept this side to my self many years but I just had to show this it was so cool and I was so excited to get it working man! I'm up to 1,567 contacts so far from my first radio since July 1st 9AM I'm hoping to beat my record of 3600 contacts for the 7 days.... go check it out at 13colonies.us/
