====== ADS-X Arduino based QRP Digital modes kit. ======


Its been a while since I put together my 20M Phaser and 40M Phaser kits (still have a 17M to build) so I have always been looking for similar kits since I had so much fun building and using them, unfortunately they are no longer produced, so when I ran across this it instantly peaked my interest (so much so I ordered one, so will have a separate post on how that goes).

**ADX-S Digital Modes (WSPR, JS8, FT4 and FT8) HF QRP Transceiver Kit with 40, 20, 15 and 10 meter LPF Band Modules**

Here is a link to a review on a YouTube page that explains a bit about it, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGH0kUvkqX0|REVIEW: CR Kits ADX-S 4 band digital mode transceiver kit]] and here is another link with more info about it from [[https://qrper.com/2023/03/from-idea-to-kit-adam-introduces-the-arduino-digital-modes-hf-qrp-transceiver-adx-s-kit/|**ADAM BD6CR INTRODUCES THE ARDUINO**]] . Here is a link to the main site that sells these kits: [[https://crkits.com/|**CRKITS**]] 

Of course while looking into these I ran across something else new to me, **FT8CN** which is an Android App which runs on your phone or tablet which allows your transceiver to not only receive FT8, but also to transmit it too. So I will definitely give this a try with my Phasers and of course the ADS-X when I get that up and running.

Here is a link to the developers GitHub page where there is more info and downloads for it:  [[https://github.com/N0BOY/FT8CN|**FT8CN**]]. Here is a link by VK3YE on YouTube which has a bit of a review on it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HA1L8Bbjhs|**REVIEW: FT8 on your Android with FT8CN app (it's free!)**]]

So looks like I will have something else to keep me busy.
