Hi Ken
I am still battling with Hostgator but as things stand they will not waver the redemption fee even though they admit there auto renewal system failed me. ?As a last resort I have asked for a discount but I don't hold much hope in that happening especially seen as I have not had a response back from them.
The Irwell project continues to progress all be it very slowly. Over the weekend I put some parts on the xtal filter prototype PCB's I had made, no xtals on them yet but I wanted to test the switching between the filter types and also the switching from RX to TX, all went well so I now have to match more xtals which I hope to do this week.
The receive section is almost complete and I intend to produce a board for this from the modules I have completed and tested, this will then permit the build of a multi-mode communications receiver, the transmit board will be a separate unit that will interface with the receive module to create the transceiver.
Once I have populated the filter boards with xtals I will post some pictures along with filter plots.
Regards for now.
