A very unique transceiver kit is set to hit the airwaves soon.
The DX-FT8 is a tiny, highly portable, stand-alone 5-band QRPp transceiver for FT8 that can be powered by a 5V USB connection.
Bands covered are 10, 12, 15, 17 and 20 meters - perfect for this point in the solar cycle.
Details can be found here.
Kees K5BCQ is handling the orders and shipping for the DX-FT8 and has a backlog of orders in the queue. Orders placed now won't ship until Feb 2025 due to temporary lack of availability of one of the parts (RF transformer) that make up the kit.
A few other items (purchased separately) are required to make the radio operational - all inexpensive. They are listed at the link above.
