Eagle PCB Cad will kick some butt, but it’s a steep learning curve
Free, for the trial version with no restrictions other than no pcb bigger than
3 x 4 inches
I would never use software that locks into one company, ties all your work to
them.

THe only "problem" with the captive freeware from the places like
Express is that you cannot do anything else with the result. Not even
print out the board layouts--only send them in to have them made.
There are several free packages...some good, others not so much, that do
the same and are u
Have you looked at ExpressPCB/ExpressSCH? Great for what you are
describing and the software is free.

Thanks Mike. Good info.
I took a look at circad — whew! Pricey.. I’ve got a couple of projects that
I’ve been wanting to have a board or two made up but not at that level of
professionalism!

Thanks, Mike. I'll have to give them a look. Purple is the color of royalty,

The purple pcbs are made by a company called osh park.
He ( they) have a thing for purple. Even the mailing envelopes are purple.
All the prototypes are purple. Go figure.
I use circad for the pcb layout software. I am currently teaching myself eagle.
That's been slow.

Found myself wondering the same thing. Where do you get your boards made?
And, what software do you use to lay them out? I ask because I have two of the
AC-4r kits and greatly admired the boards.

It's PURPLE! Now I want to go find an R4B just so I can buy one.
Where do you get purple boards made, Mike?

Boys and girls…
I’ve been working on a replacement calibrator for the drake R4b. This
calibrator will output 100, 50, and 25 kHz signals. You select the output with
a dip jumper. The output also pulses on and off, and again, you can turn that
off if you don’t want it.
it has the same footprint
Gang,
We all know that the RTL parts used in the calibrator are no longer being made.
So, if your calibrator in your R4B goes kaput, then you're screwed.
This year at the dayton hamvention I talked to Ron, WB4HFN, about the problem
and he sent me a broken calibrator board. I needed the dimensi
