Hermes - A DUC/DDC Transceiver

Project Leader: Kevin M0KHZ

Building on the success of Penelope and Mercury, Hermes will combine the two functions onto a single board to produce an HF (160-6m) Digital Down Conversion – Digital Up Conversion Transceiver.

Potential features at the moment include:

- IDC Header to enable the use of the Alex HPF/LPF board set

- Onboard 10MHz TCXO with provision for an external input

- A Pennywhistle type of amplifier with 15w output

- Microphone, headset, loudspeaker connections

- 13.5v DC input

- Open collector outputs for external relay/equipment control

- Euro- card size PCB (160mm x 100mm)
