Raj, the price will go up, not come down. It will also be another thing for newbies to be confused about. For those who want to use a different audio amp, you have to just wire it up out of the volume control. It is as easy ss it gets even now.
What I would like to see uBitx become more hacker friendly. Please put
the audio on a daughter board
with a 0.1" pitch socket so we can plug in any chip or discrete home
brew board
Secondly daughter boards for the filter and the two bidi amps which I
call townships.
The mother board will shrink and be more hackable.
I guess that costs will come down a bit..
