In this blog post I present an overview of the "Irwell HF Transceivers" vfo microcontroller software, it is intended as a guide to key features for those who have requested the software or are building the transceiver.
The software and MCU hardware is responsible for generating the VFO signal, oscillator frequencies and to provide control of the various transceiver stages.
The main VFO and controller hardware is based around an affordable STM32 Bluepill microcontroller board.
It is hard to believe my last blog post was in February 2023 and we are now in the month of August so almost six months have past between blog posts, shame on me 😉.
During the summer months I do not tend to spend a lot of time on hobbies but now the summer is nearing the end it is time to knuckle down and make a much needed return to the blog and my Irwell HF Transceiver project.
Before I do that allow me to whaffle a little about what I have been upto in the last few months.
In this blog post I go all OLD SCHOOL and prepare an analogues s-meter for my Irwell HF Transceiver project.
Big thanks to my ham radio buddy Frank G6YAQ who kindly donated the meter for this project.
