Hi Bill,
?
The UCB is for use with the SDR-1000 and provides expanded external I/O.? Not needed in general.

I did not see a cost for the Universal Control Board. This is a first time order.
Do I need one?
Sri abt the ignorance.

Hi Art,

I have all the parts for the alpha kit ready to send except for the toroid
cores.? I was informed they were shipped last Monday from Florida, so I am
kind of wondering if it is really so.? I have held off on sending the alpha
kits until I had the cores in hand, but may need to reorder the cores from
some other source.

So far three of the alpha kits have been built (with the few toroids I had)
and are working very nicely.? Performance has looked good enough to head for
a kit run at the end of November.

Sorry for the delay on getting the alpha kits out.

73,
Tony KB9YIG
