KA7EXM / Kanga PIC Power Meter Web-Site
Since 2005, over 100 full kits were sold, and another 100+ sets of PC boards. The firmware was updated in 2007 to include some minor feature enhancements, including RS-232 interface support. The project appeared in the 2008 - 2009 handbooks as well (give or take). Bill @ Kanga has just a couple of kits remaining in his stock.
I am still providing PC boards and pre-programmed PIC CPU's for those who wish to replicate the project.
Update 10/2009:
I ran out of PC boards a couple of months ago. Or so
I thought. Another batch was ordered so I have plenty in stock now.
Well guess what....I found about 25 that I didn't know I had previously.
So I'm SWIMMING in PC boards right now. Firmware upgrade kits are still
available as well (and I found a bunch of extra PIC CPU's as well).
Kanga is out of stock of full kits.
RS-232 upgrade kits are out of stock.
Update 4/2009:
PC boards are still available via KA7EXM. Firmware
upgrade kits are still available as well.
Kanga is out of stock of full kits.
RS-232 upgrade kits are out of stock.
