Hayling project

Following on from discussions at the 2019 Martlesham and Crawley Microwave roundtables about the need for an SDR based Microwave transceiver, Noel G8GTZ in September 2019 published a project proposal which set out the idea of a phased development based on the Rpi to provide an all mode transceiver for microwave bands up to 3.4Ghz and possibly 5.7Ghz, using the Pluto SDR hardware.

Colin G4EML volunteered to be the main contact point for the project and Heather M0HMO has offered to contribute to the project which will be hosted on GitHub

We are looking for others to contribute towards the code or publish designs in ScatterPoint for the additional system components such as Pas, LNAs and higher band transverters.

Early Prototype

Colin G4EML demonstrated an early proof of concept in early November 2019 - this was named the Langstone prototype...

Project Abandoned September 2020

The Langstone advanced and matured rapidly outside the UKug and the Hayling project made no progress so the UKuG Committee decided at the last meeting in September to abandon The Hayling Project. This page is for historical interest only
