Questions
How big is the APRS Modem PCB PCB?
It measures 28.2 × 1.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the APRS Modem PCB use?
44 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the APRS Modem PCB KiCad files?
From the meslane/APRS_Modem repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is APRS_Modem_PCB/APRS_Modem_PCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic APRS_Modem_Hardware/APRS_Modem_Hardware.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the APRS Modem PCB design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask meslane before reusing the design.
