So you want to commission someone to write your code when it’s already been done?

Or you want something easy turn key like the MFJ solution? Or the blog post suggested with step by step instructions? Good luck 73 Excuse typos and brevity, sent from a mobile device.

Re: Simple Remote Radio
That's my problem. There are tons of complex projects like what you reference. I want something exceedingly simple, but I am not smart enough to write it myself.

All I want is a window with either a transmit click on/click off or separate transmit and receive buttons for the client. Possibly a connect/disconnect button. The server just needs TX audio, RX audio, and PTT to the radio. No CAT, no controls, just a basic software equivalent of an old style remote control used with commercial two-way radios using the Internet instead of a phone line. 73, Michael WA7SKG Kelly Keeton via groups.io wrote on 11/9/21 9:36 AM:

Simple Remote Radio
I have a need for a simple remote radio. All I need is two-way audio and PTT. No channel control or anything needed. Ideally, something via a web browser as a few of the users have limited computer skills. The user would need to be able to monitor the radio for several hours at a time. This would be used with both FM and HF radios, so the stream to the user may have noise floor audio all the time.
My thought was to use something like a Pi Zero for the purpose, the stream would have to be full duplex and use some I/O pins for the PTT. The remote user would open a web page in a small window with a clickable on/off PTT button (on a timer for safety) and hot key option. That should allow use with a smartphone or computer. This is a minimal budget project (aren't they all?) I don't need anything fancy like a RigPi. Thanks for any ideas or suggestions. -- 73, Michael WA7SKG "Any day you do not learn one new thing is a wasted day."

And you get to pay return shipping and good luck after that! Seriously though, DL2MAN has left a video or two on YouTube reviewing the Asian offerings and my impression is that he found the quality and performance seriously lacking. So, probably NOT the best option if you are looking to put together a uSDX???

Re: QDX

Well is the “Lifetime” as in the lifetime of the product or the purchaser. They do say it’s the Manufacturer’s Warranty, so heaven help you talking to them….. .. as for the “protection plan” I think that’s something E-Bay offer. I don’t see it in the UK…

Re: QDX
Dave and Phil---
Dave - I am mid west- old west and sometimes just don't get it...It's funny though... Good job.. Phil- Here in the US, people say, "I"m from REALVILLE".. meaning things are simply taken. Especially with CHIN-glish... when it doesn't make sense without further explanation.. I view "independant switchable" different than Stackable.. Thanks for clearing the elderly brain fog,,, Further- as you are aware we do have problems with the Queens English..(and driving on the wrong side of the road) Then I heard on the news 2-3 days ago.. an additional 1200 words this year were added to the Webster Dictionary. And we are supposed to be expert communicators..

- Three independent switchable analog front-end receiver attenuators (0dB, -13dB, -20dB, -33dB, -53dB, -60dB, -73dB) - READ IT AGAIN!!! Stackable 13dB, 20dB, and 40dB attenuators will do that: 0dB 13dB 20dB 13B + 20dB = 33dB 40dB 40db + 13 dB = 53dB 20dB + 40 dB = 60dB 13dB + 20dB + 40dB = 73dB Phil 2E0HGU
