It seems like nobody has (yet) used the Pi Zero W.?? Why don't you
give it a go?? I suspect that it will be a noise generator as well
as RF prone ... but worth a try!

Anyone thought about using a PiZeroW (or even a
regular RPi) for controlling a uBitx?
I thought to myself, while pondering my design decisions,
"Hey, a PiZeroW is $10.? A Teensy3.2 is $20..."? Looking
quickly at the pinout, it has spi and i2c, and a few GPIO's.?
I don't have any experience programming the raspberry pis, but
adding an i2s audio dac (or two) could easily do DSP audio,
spectrum display, etc... I have my RpiZeroW hooked up to a
3.5" TFT touchscreen display I got off amazon... ()
Mostly just curious.? Doubt I'll change directions with my
top mod PCB, but it certainly could be an interesting option
(The RpiZeroW consumes ~250mA @ 5V as I recall)
