FDM-DUO USB Failure


Chris Bartram
 

Hello Vianney,

I appear to have damaged the TX USB port of my FDM Duo. I would very much like to repair this myself. Is it possible to have some information about this part of the circuit? Perhaps a limited part of the schematic and a layout drawing? I would be happy to receive this under a non-disclosure agreement.

I have the skills and equipment necessary to do a repair. I spent my career as a design engineer working in RF and microwave circuit design, and have retained much of my equipment on retirement.

Chris,

I can always lend you a working DUO, I have two but only need one for now.

Thank you, Simon.


Fortunately, I'd been planning to acquire second Duo for some time, and I managed to locate one on Dartmoor! All being well, I'll be picking that up tomorrow, so I won't need to take advantage of your kind offer. I've been using a Duo for a few years now and it has been built into what is still the beginnings of a system which could (theoretically!) give me access to all of our licenced bands from 136kHz to 47GHz.
