Welcome to the KC4ZVW projects site


Amateur radio, Microcontrollers, Test Equipment & other electronic projects


Introduction

My name is David and I have been an Amateur Radio operator since the early 1990’s.

My first interest was in 2-meter packet radio and I had a Icom 2AT handheld tranceiver and a Paccomm Tiny-2 TNC.

Today I have more equipment such as Icom T7H dual-band HT and several more TNCs and sound card interfaces. This site is to hopefully document the projects that I might complete in the 21st century.

Interests include:
