Building HPSDR Rigs
Hardware Introduction
This is a guide for those new to HPSDR about exactly what hardware you need to be able to use the system.
Support documentation
Documents for user interested in building boards can be found on the Support page.
A complete HPSDR transceiver
This page provides an example of how to build your own transceiver using HPSDR components and other available hardware and software.
The Antec P183 Solution
This page documents an example of how to build your own transceiver using HPSDR components and other available hardware and software in a traditional a mid-tower PC enclosure.
The Tokyo Hy-Power HL-45B Solution
This page documents an example of how to add a commercial solid state 45 Watt Amplifier to your HPSDR rig.
The Rino R-1 Solution
Another PC case that works well with the HPSDR Atlas, Ozy, Mercury, and Penelope components. On this solution there is no direct CW, only audio CW. This would be a perfect companion to the Tokyo Hy-Power HL-45B Solution.
Never Short a Penelope by AD9DP
The short paper tells you why you should never operate Penelope into a shorted load.
HPSDR Performance Tests
The purpose of these pages are to establish HPSDR performance measurement process standards.
Receiver Performance Tests
Transmitter Performance Tests
