That reminds me, I posted this back on Feb. 1st. 1 watt TX, $10-20 range.
Need to do some googling and find out who has been building useful stuff with these and what code is available. On 2/3/2015 4:32 PM, Rob Terzi wrote:
These look like they'd be fun to play with. Looks like a version on a through-hole board is available for under $20. From the Hamgear (PD0AC) blog: https://hamgear.wordpress.com/2015/02/03/make-your-own-transceiver-with-a-dorji-dra818u-or-dra818v/ "These modules have been around for a while, but they fascinate me. For only US $12,88 you get a fully functional 1 Watt transceiver working on either VHF or UHF." He's got pictures and pointers from a project that uses an Arduino to control the transceiver module. The module is small and cheap enough to embed with an Arduino or RPi. It will be interesting if/when PD0AC gets his hands on one of these modules. If you read his other blog posts he often reviews radio gear, running through a bunch of bench tests checking harmonics, etc. https://hamgear.wordpress.com/ Enjoy, --Rob W2RCT
