because I just found this:

http://www.rtl-sdr.com/pitx-qrp-tx-shiled-for-wspr-on-20m-now-for-sale/ Here's the documentation/presentation from TAPR in a pdf that's not small, right here. I just ordered one. This might be fun. |

Finally got around to installing Windows 10 IOT Core on my Raspberry Pi 3 this weekend - AMAZING!!!
Installed a streaming media server to it and now looking at integrating them into the annual light show. I'd love to do some HAM related stuff - Any other good projects that you know of??? |

Lol.
I haven't had time, lol. I haven't even loaded the software onto the Pi yet. I can't find a microsd reader/writer. I'll see if I can do it tonight or tomorrow. ETA: I have to get a 20m antenna up too, so there's that as well. I don't have a resonant 20m antenna in the air right now, I'll probably throw up a vertical at least temporarily. |

Seems like a bit of over kill use for a Raspi. The QRP-Labs kit is $33 and you can expand it to cover multiple bands. The fully decked out kit with 6 bands, gps, relay board and enclosure can be had for $134. You're probably around $80 for a Raspi & the TAPR board by the time you add an SD card, p/s and some kind of box. Just another WSPR option to consider, not trying to poo-poo on the project.
