=======

In 2023, the 70MHz band became accessible to amateurs in Switzerland. This offers an excuse to build a transciever.

See dart70-blockdiagram.pdf

* Enclosure: Hammond 511-0900

Receive gain:

S9 is -93dBm, S1 is -141dBm

-141 -1 +16 -1 -7 +16 -4 +60 -7 +30 = -39 dBm


Transmit gain:

-6 -7 -4 +16 -4 -7 -1 -1 +15 +15 +15 -1 = 30 dBm

## To order

* Enclosure 511-0900
* Cable 15134-0803
* Microphone MH34-B4B
* encoder and potentiometer knob (6mm shaft diameter) 5164-1101
* right-angled 2.54mm headers HMTSW-140-24-T-S-070-RA

* Ordered:
  * Adafruit 292 and 181

## TODO

* Double-check height with pin headers
* Add silkscreen info for headers, pinouts and testpoints
* Position of holes for vertical boards
* Clearance for ethernet magnetics
* Placement and clearance for front connectors
