Re: PA3

 

Hi Seth

I do not have you on my current list for a MK3 HF Linear Amp PCB but will add you now.

Your MK3 Linear PCB is reserved from my current limited stock.

I will email you once I can confirm cost to include the PCB's that you registered an interest for on the databases.


Regards

Andy


Re: boards

 

Hi Ron

I will be adding the MK3 LPF printed circuit board to the registration databases soon once I have finalized the PCB layout. ?That just leaves the digital vfo which I will be looking at, just need to decide if I should do a run of the original MK2 VFO or look at other options.


Regards

Andy de G6LBQ


Re: For Sale: Almost completed Transceiver

 

Dave

There is a bunch of people ordering the boards through Andy on the G6LBQ group. You might have good luck there.

Built and aligned Exciter Module

Built and aligned Lowpass filter Module

Built and aligned Bandpass filter Module

Built PA Module with heatsink

Exciter dc switching relay board

Unopened VFO kit

Custom Case

A bag with Various spare Integrated circuits

Plugs / pins for exciter connectors (currently wires soldered directly)

All modules have SMA RF connectors, matching interconnecting leads included (see photos)

It has had qsos in the past with external VFO and TR7 amp, but needs controls wiring and new meter fitting (the old one didnt survive the trip home!)

Photos are at

Asking ?300 ONO including shipping to mainland UK?

Email me if interested

Re: boards

 

Count me in, very interested would love to build this rig


Re: Boards and stuff.

 

Hi Andy


I'd also like to have 1 MK3 PA board reserved for me.

i'm in both databases. any plans to make all boards to build the complete radio.

Hello Andy,
I thought I requested one of your PA3 I think it was. Im not sure as Ive done many things on sleep deprivation recently.

Thank You Sir,

Hi Andy

I'd also like to have 1 MK3 PA board reserved for me.

Please join it to the boards of the exciter and BPF that I have already registered on the databases.

Hi Tim

Your MK3 PA board has been reserved from my stock and I will email you soon to confirm cost along with the MK2 BPF

Hi Ian

Your MK3 PA PCB has been reserved from stock and I will email you soon to confirm cost along with the MK2 Exciter PCB.

Re: G6LBQ MK2 Exciter PCB - Pre Order

 

Hi Adrian

As requested I have added you to the databases for two MK2 Exciter boards and two MK2 BPF boards.

Thanks for you interest.

Regards

Andy de G6LBQ


Re: Other PCB's to be made available for pre-order.

 

Hi Seth

At this time I do not have any complete kits available for a complete build.

Through the databases you can register your interest to pre-order individual PCB's but you would have to source components to fill them.

Thanks for your interest.

Regards

Andy de G6LBQ



Re: Other PCB's to be made available for pre-order.

 

Hi Peter

I am working towards making all of the PCB's available by providing the databases where members can register there interest to pre-order.

Please keep an eye on the databases as I will be adding more soon.


Regards

Andy de G6LBQ

Re: Other PCB's to be made available for pre-order.

 

Any chance you'd be willing to do a run of the full set of boards?

Hi Everyone

Just a quick note to let you all know that I will be adding more databases soon so you can register your interest to pre-order Low-Pass Filter PCB's and HF Linear Amplifier PCB's.

When I originally designed the MK2 Low-Pass Filter module I wanted it to be universal so I created a PCB that could be populated with component options that rated it for low power use 10-20 Watts, or high power use 100 Watts plus.? I am going to re-design the low-pass filter PCB for 10-20 Watt rating only, this will allow me to reduce the PCB size, use smaller relays and reduce the overall build cost. The new Low-Pass filter will become the MK3 and will also be used in the Irwell transceiver project currently under development.

I do have a small quantity of the MK3 HF Linear Amplifier PCB's in stock, this amplifier was developed to interface with the MK2 Exciter and take care of all the RF switching paths but is also a great universal HF Linear Amp for use with other projects including the Irwell Transceiver that is under development.

Stay tuned for more information and announcements!

What would it cost me to get one of those mkiii setups?

I would be thrilled to build entire rig

Re: Boards and stuff.

 

Hi Andy,

I too would like a PA board as well if you have enough.

Thanks, Tim Mi0TME


Re: G6LBQ MK2 Exciter PCB - Pre Order

 

The second database still reads BPF in many places, ?i went ahead and added myself. ?

I have equalinterest in all boards. ?I got to see the W4OP build at FDIM a few years back! ?What a beautiful rig! ?I have great respect for Dales craftsmanship, the man has real skill and talent! ?It pulled me in with great interest in whole project! ?I have interest in every board and complete build instructions if available!?


Thank you for all the work you do here! ?I wish you a much better 2017

Hi Andy

I cannot access the database, due to access controls at my end.

Anyway, can you please add me to the order list, I want two exciter boards, and two MK2 B-P Filter boards.

Hi Everyone


The database for pre-order of the G6LBQ MK2 Band-Pass Filter PCB has proven to be a success so I have now created a further database for registering interest to pre-order the Mk2 Exciter PCB


The database list is accessible to all members of the group so you can keep an eye on the level of interest registered.


I will need a minimum of 10 confirmed orders for PCB¡¯s before I can place a manufacturing order.


All members who have registered there interest on the database will be contacted by email once there is sufficient interest to consider placing a manufacturing order for the PCB¡¯s. In the email, I will confirm the PCB cost, shipping costs and you will have the opportunity to confirm your order.

Please note that any member you registers there interest on the database can remove themselves from the list should they wish to do so.


Access to the Group Databases is via the feature list on the left hand side of your screen between the files section and Wiki section.


Once you are in the Databases section you will see the heading Request for G6LBQ MK2 BandPass Filter PCB?? click on this to view the database.


If you want to add yourself to the database and register your interest just click the green button that says ¡°+Add Row¡±


Next fill in the two required fields and finish off by clicking the blue button that says ¡°+Save Row¡±


I have added myself to the database so you get an idea of how it appears.

Andy de G6LBQ
