About this talk…

The BITX is a simple to build, yet challenging all-band transceiver kit.

Many people, even if they don’t own one, will have heard or read of the impact it has for a radio amateur to be able to build a rig at a low cost, with repeatable results, to get on the air.

Ashhar advanced the BITX with the introduction of the uBITX, which is a HF (3-30MHz) all-band SSB and CW transceiver kit.

His latest design, the sBITX is a hackable HF SDR transceiver designed around the Raspberry Pi.

In his talk, Ashhar traces the history of BITX, with a bit of anecdotal banter and some tech pointers.
