Talkpod A36plus MAX Makes History: Successful M17 Transmission

A Milestone for Open-Source Ham Radio

We're thrilled to announce a significant breakthrough in the open-source ham radio community. Wojciech SP5WWP has successfully transmitted and received M17 using his A36plus MAX radio!

This achievement is a testament to the power of open-source collaboration and the dedication of the ham radio community. By leveraging the capabilities of the BK4819 RF chip, the A36plus MAX has been extended to support M17, a mode that was previously thought to be beyond its reach.

A New Era for Ham Radio

This development opens up exciting possibilities for the future of ham radio. With the potential for SSB and AM reception, the A36plus could become a versatile and affordable radio for both experienced and novice operators.

We extend our sincere gratitude to Andrej K8TUN and Wojciech SP5WWP for them invaluable contributions to this project. Them expertise and dedication have been instrumental in making this milestone possible.

Join the Open-Source Revolution

We encourage everyone to join the open-source ham radio community and contribute to the development of innovative and affordable radio solutions. By working together, we can push the boundaries of what's possible and create a brighter future for ham radio.
