Note:
This project includes three GERBER files! Due to PCBWay platform's limitation on the number of GERBER files that can be uploaded for a single project, the GERBER files for the side covers of the device are moved to separate projects:
LED_side_cover for WSPR-beacon
SMA_side_cover for WSPR-beacon
A small hardware device for transmitting WSPR messages based on the SI5351 IC. The device has a built-in TCXO to eliminate SI5351 frequency drift, a built-in GPS module for operation with active GPS antennas, transmission time synchronization and automatic QTH locator calculation, and a simple amplifier based on a single BS170 transistor (PCB version 1.0) or buffer amplifier based on a 74ACT244 IC (this version). PCB is made on based on SMD components and adapted for installation in an aluminum enclosure with dimensions 80 x 50 x 20 mm.
