Looks interesting, didn't watch the entire videos. I wonder how much Tx power it has.
But it has to really be easy to carry, I mean easier than a cell phone and a dedicated HT. Otherwise few would bother with it, because you can buy cheap tiny HT's today, and they are full featured dual band etc. |

Neat for $35 but Android only.

I read the code and it looks easy enough to port to iOS or a desktop system. So long as the maintainer doesn’t have an ideological opposition I might take a crack at it.
I’ve had similar ideas for a tactical radio for quite a while. |

Looks like you can buy completed boards with the components added with immersion gold and selective hard gold for about $35 anyone want to get in on an order for them?
Taking a look at the Gerber now. I have ESP32 here, but if it will also take the SMD version that would be great they are about $3 from Digikey and I have the board to program them. ETA: No it only will take the Dev kits, but they are around 6-12 bucks depending on how and who you order from. |

I'd probably be interested in a group order. It's a very neat project and he responds to email pretty quick.
