Re: New HL2 companion board

As an update, there is a part that is NLA. Jim is trying to substitute, or redesign the board layout.
Simon, would you like to test a one of the 10 Beta boards?

Re: New HL2 companion board

Jim is back from vacation. This project will move forward soon. 129 are interested, so fully populated boards will be built by Makerfabs. 10 Beta boards, just for QC & testing first.

Re: New HL2 companion board

In a week or so, Jim will be back from vacation. I will then collaborate with him about a backplate a couple other things. Then off to Makerfabs for a 10 board test run. They will be fully populated.

Re: New HL2 companion board

I am thinking that the receive inputs may be usable as to seperate receive antennas, as PS is not used in Console. At least they are broken out the back panel, instead of soldering in a ufl socket.

Re: New HL2 companion board

Per the IO board designer, all that is needed is to send the frequency over the I2C bus & 3 header pins on the HL2 board. It plugs in to replace the filter board jumper plug.

New HL2 companion board

Copied pasted from HL2 Facebook group: Jim Ahlstrom (designer of the filter board) has designed a general I/O board for the HL2. It allows things like amplifier/transverter interfacing, PureSignal input, dedicated receiver input and a few other bits. Github: https://github.com/jimahlstrom/HL2IOBoard...
