All,
Since we have a lot of new hams in the area... and there may be some old timers
who have never heard of the site either... FAR Circuits.
https://farcircuits.net
FAR Circuits sells very affordable kits with etched boards and all the parts
for many many projects. They pull them from ham radio magazine articles.. so if
you have ever read an article on a project build and have ever considered
building it, this is a great source for the parts and schematics all in one
place.
Download the catalog, or just use the "find" feature within your browser to
look for keywords of things you are interested in building.
They have been in business for 35 years.. I used to visit them at their tent at
Dayton back in the day.
Here is an excerpt from their website:
FAR Circuits is exclusively a manufacturer of Printed Circuit Boards for
electronic projects that are used by the Amateur Radio and electronic hobby
enthusiast. We supply boards in any quantity, but are geared toward low volume
and individual circuit board users. We have been in business for over 35 years,
and have boards in stock for most of the Ham projects published in QST, QEX,
ARRL Handbook, the old Ham Radio, 73's, Amateur Radio Today, CQ, WIFB Designer
Notebooks, Popular Electronics, QRPp, QRP Notebook, Communications Quarterly,
Electronics Now, and others. FAR Circuits can supply board(s) for projects
published in other magazines if the artwork is published in the article. The
Printed Circuit Boards supplied are generally on G10 material, drilled and
solder coated, and ready to be assembled. We maintain a small inventory of
Integrated Circuits for some projects - please check the individual project
listing for availability.
Enjoy and happy building!
