====== Phaser Digital Mode Transceiver Kit ======


This is a link to the Web Page for the Digital Transceiver Kits I am building ( 20 M and 40 M ) it looks like a really fun project, they have a discussion group too which is quite interesting to follow as it gives a community feel to the whole project, I am hoping to receive the 20 M one soon and will try to take photos and do a little write up on it for our website.

Just a quick update, I received my 20 M and 40 M kits, finished assembling and testing the 20 M kit, worked right away, quite impressive I made contacts immediatly including one to Japan all using just under 4 watts!

Definitely a worthwhile project and quite a bit of fun to build and use, price for the kits is $60 USD with $20 shipping so a budget way to run digital modes for around $100. 

I will add some more content in the coming days.

Finished assembly of board.

Installed in the case which has a clear lid so the board is visible with the lid closed, the power supply is a TalentCell Model YB1208300-USB 100 watt hour which seems to work well with it for portable operation.

It appears mine is making some history, Phaser from Canada to Phaser in Japan!
