This is what I've got heading across the pond: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009HPB1OI/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Looks like a similar parts count but a rectangular PCB with solder

It looks different than a larger 7805, but who knows what is inside, hi. It does have similar spec except it can handle 1.5A instead of 1.0A. There are versions of the 7805 that handle 3 Amps. Also

Hi again, I made a mistake. I used one of these which has a variable output voltage

Roger, I use the same module, but I clean up the output by passing it through a LM2940 3 leg 5 volt LDO regulator (with the caps each side as you would use for a standard application). I don't have

Hi Ray, I think I have the same type and managed about 2A (ish) output at 5V with very respectable ripple (read: hardly noticeable on the cro). I was a little disappointed seeing the output at 4.85V

Charles this is just a better 7805 right? I got two. What fuse type and value are you using on yours? Ronny K4RJJ

I bought 5, smps adjustable output modules using the LM2596 from Ebay ($1.52 each including freight from Hong Kong to Australia!). These are branded Leivin and the PCB layout and

That seems to be the concept of the LC-2.0, but it has a 1mm fiber rather than a MM's 62.5um so it's 16 times the diameter for more light output. And since the panel side already has a lens, at less

seems to me that the whole purpose of Pi is to be a reasonably priced learning tool. Linux isn't the easiest which I can well understand since we have all been dumbed down by iPads(iOSs) and

How about some old MM fiber patch cable (no ends) and shave the tops off of some panel leds to scatter the light? Not very modular, down and dirty. Matt - N0GIK

Juan, Can you do uname -a at the command prompt and post what it reports and, post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list. Ray vk2tv

I don't seem to have a noise problem with this converter. I don't have a scope to look at the output. If I do it is hidden by the noise from my PC's supply. I operate at 145.030 and 145.630 MHz. I

Hi again. Well, I tried the "personal" version of mobaxterm, it was not a good experience. As soon as the program loads, the network on the Windows (XP, all up to date) box is disconnected (wired

Pi may give us a reasonably priced 9600 TNC...

You might want to have a look at some of Mike Bergs projects found here. http://www.ringolake.com/pic_proj/pic_index.html Might give you some ideas anyways. I think he is working on transmitting

I'm running one of these to power my IC-9100 and a bunch of low power devices. Haven't observed any switching noise and it just runs. (The fan does stay

I hopeto be able to produce both 300 and 9600 versions of the TNC-PI. I was planningto get them done last Autumn, but the current version took a bit longer than Iexpected, and I decided to port my

I have 2 of the SEC1235M (w/meters) and they are excellent supplies. Look at the supply Yeasu pushes with the FT857/897, the FP1023, and it looks identical to the SEC1223 and for twice the
