A huge thank you to Richard VK2ARH and the Manly-Warringah Radio Society who have shared their wonderful kit build of the Arduino Digital Modes HF QRP Transceiver (ADX).

REAST organised with Richard a bulk buy of the transceiver kits and the Barb-a-Watt QRP power/SWR meters. The first introduction session with Richard on a Zoom Call from VK2 at the Experimenter’s Night on 19 March 2025.

The ADX was designed by Barb WB2CBA see his GitHub site for files and details of the project : https://github.com/WB2CBA/ADX.

About 30 kits that are being put together and the PCBs even have the REAST logo on them!

Richard went through a powerpoint slide deck about the history of the project, some expectation setting, tips and tricks and much more, thanks Richard.

All the information about the build including the construction manual can be found on Richard’s GitHub Site – https://github.com/VK2ARH/Cowtown-ADX-Project

We will be continuing the build over the next couple of Wednesday Experimenters nights.
