Great, very good news as I ordered it this morning.
Question regarding my kit I'd left boxed up since Dec 2023. My boards
have a 2023 date on them, they also have ver 009b. Looking at the
images of the boards at
I'm not finding ver 009b info. ver 010 or 011 images of boards have
dates from 2022 or thereabouts, a year before my boards.
Hopefully my Teensy 4.1 and audio board will work with my boards.
Also the filter boards has the legacy five bands, I would like to
operate on 60M. Will it work on 60M as is or should I look at
upgrading some boards? This is the best time for me to make any
changes.
Thanks! Ron VE8RT

I haven't ordered a display recently, but there was a 3.3-5.0V jumper on the back (J8) that let's me select between the two voltages. Maybe that's no longer an option?

Everything has been ordered. After reading the messages regarding
display noise and 3.3 vs 5.0 volt options I ordered the 5.0 volt
display.

Thank you,
I'll carry on, appreciate your saving me scanning over a year's of
posts to the lists to check for recommended changes since my kit
arrived.
So wishing that I was retired already, I'll be 70 this year. Stuck
around because my boss www.buffaloairways.com <> won't hire an apprentice
or replacement, I'm one of the old guys with experience on his own
fleet plus the DC's, C-54 (retired now), L-188, and our fire fighting
fleet which includes CL-215s (piston ones from the 60's). The next few
weeks is my break before fire season gets going again (not only
lightning, also re-animated zombie fires).
The required parts will be ordered this week.

Your kit does not include the Teensy 4.1 or the Audio Hat, either (available from PJRC.com). The display is ordered from BuyDisplay.com and is a Chinese company so it will take some time. The correct model number is in the Files section of this site.

I was furtunate enough to received from Ron AG1P a T41 kit back in
December of 2023. The plan to get to it in early 2024 didn't work out,
I've just this last week gone through the box and have a good start on
the book.
Before I dive into building it are there modifications or other that
I should do right away? The 5 inch display and other not included in
the box I should get on order ASAP. Retirement should have happened in
2020, hopefully this later this year.
