Arduino for Radio Amateur Applications

Arduino for Radio Amateur Applications: Program and Build Arduino-Based Ham Station Utilities, Tools, and Instruments

In addition to a detailed introduction to the exciting world of the Arduino microcontroller and its many variants, this book introduces you to the shields, modules, and components you can connect to the Arduino. This book discusses and uses many of these components in detail, demonstrating how to incorporate them into your Arduino projects. Emphasis has been placed on designing and creating a wide range of amateur radio-related projects that can easily be built in just a few days.

This book is written for ham radio operators and Arduino enthusiasts of all skill levels. It includes discussions about the tools, construction methods, and troubleshooting techniques used in creating amateur radio-related Arduino projects. This book teaches you how to create feature-rich Arduino-based projects, to help you advance beyond this book and design and build your own ham radio Arduino projects.

In addition, this book describes in detail the design, construction, programming, and operation of the following projects:

• CW Beacon and Foxhunt Keyer
• Mini Weather Station
• RF Probe with LED Bar Graph
• DTMF Tone Encoder
• DTMF Tone Decoder
• Waveform Generator
• Auto Power On/Off
• Bluetooth CW Keyer
• Station Power Monitor
• AC Current Monitor

This book assumes a basic understanding of electronics and circuit construction. Basic knowledge of the Arduino IDE programming language is also helpful.
