Just placed an order for the the HL2 so I’m a a ways off from receiving it. I was wondering if anyone has ordered a batch of or has a spare PureSignal board or an alternative that is isn’t too kludgy.  -C

IMG_6462.jpegChuck, I have a spare pcb and the required parts for i/o jumper (https://github.com/softerhardware/Hermes-Lite2/tree/master/hardware/companions/io_jumper) which has the puresignal interface, I can ship it to you. I can either build it or send you all the parts so you can build it. Whichever you prefer. It is the purple board on the attached photo. I also have one spare DB9 board if you need it.

Ramon, both would be great, I can assemble them. I'm good on QRZ so let me know what I owe you. I'm in no hurry, I'm waiting on Makerfab so it might be 30-60 days. -Chuck

Chuck, I have them ready to ship, just curious on the address as you have a physical and a PO BOX in QRZ, can you send me the right address so I don't screw up? You can email it to me. You don't owe me anything, just contribute to the HL2 community in any way or shape that you're able to! Hope you enjoy your HL2 as much as I'm enjoying mine!

Best Regards!
Ramon

Ramon, the PO Box please, I don’t get mail at my rural QTH. Many thanks, I will for sure return the favor or pay it forward.

Thanks Chuck, It will be in the mail today or tomorrow. They I/O Board is missing the 5x2 and 4x1 headers but maybe you won't need them either way, I'm sure I have them somewhere but my XYL organized my stuff and now I can't find anything :/

Jiri and Colin, unfortunately I don't have any more. These PCBs can be ordered from JLCPCB, OshPark or any other PCB manufacturer in small batches from 3-5 pieces. Maybe if a couple forum members get together to purchase PCBs and parts, you may be able to get a full set for way less than $10.

Best Regards,

Hi Group,

Just a reminder that all PCBs in this project are open source. You can build a small batch of some of the IO boards by first downloading the gerber files from github. For example:


Then you submit the gerber files to a pcb  maker. Within the US, oshpark is popular:


The best prices are from China. See

for price comparison.
