<p>I'd be interested to see the design /code for SC rig with the
AX5043 chip. I have similar goals of implementing various radios
(balloons, satellite, etc.) using this device (the PSK and HDLC
features make it enticing). Are there plans for posting any of
the code or schematics for this? I know Jonathan Brandenburg has
done a lot in this area already
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/BrandenburgTech/DigitalTxRxRPi">https://github.com/BrandenburgTech/DigitalTxRxRPi</a>), but more
public code sounds good to me!<br>
</p>
<p>My biggest concern at the moment with these chips is that
individuals are not available on Mouser or Digikey, Mouser has
reels of 3000 available and the product is marked EOL. Other
documentation suggest this is just a 'hiccup' as they transition
from one manufacturing house to another, but its hard to get
started playing with these if 1) i can't get my hands on small
quantities and 2) not confident yet that they will be readily
available in small quantities long term...............I hunted
around and couldn't find a similar device with all the same
features.......so I'm hoping the new stuff shows up on
Mouser/Digikey soon.....<br>

<div>We were told to scout around for other people who are using
L-Band as an uplink from Earth to LEO. Dr. Campbell said we
might want find a friend of his named Jeff Kruth from Morehead
University, or Al Ward who is doing work with LNA's.
Essentially we are using L-Band on our OreSat CubeSat-0 for
the uplink. We are building a down-converter for the SC side
and using the OnSemi AX5043 chip as the IF receiver.</div>

<p>Hey! I'm on my way out the door to
start the drive to MUD (VA to OH)!
This will be my first time going, so
definitely interested to hear about
all the good stuff going on!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Also, FYI, I'm getting pretty heavily
involved in SigMF with a couple of
students on an RF Machine Learning
program......so definitely interested
to talk with other folks on this
topic, this project seems to be
picking up steam.......<br>
