After measuring & fiddling around with all those capacitors, the rest of the board went together fairly easily:
It’s difficult to test from the Basement Laboratory, although the tones and audio levels sound about right.
The next step: conjure up a box. That shape has nothing to recommend it, so I’m doodling an extrusion-like shell with endcaps that should work better and look nicer… but that’s behind some other stuff that must happen first.

[…] build in mass production, but I can’t figure out how to duplicate it for a case to house the GPS+Voice interface circuitry. That box had the dual disadvantages of being plug-ugly and not locking to the radio, but it did […]
[…] into the depths of the case, with all the wiring in the way, to turn those nuts. Fortunately, the PCB has plenty of clearance in that direction, but … it’ll be awkward at […]
[…] That circuit works pretty well for APRS tracking, I’d say, based on a 23 mile out-and-back ride over the Walkway: KE4ZNU – Wouxun KG-UV3D – first ride […]
[…] bike is failing, I get a Wouxun KG-UV3D HT and modify the Z1A interface to match. Then I build an interface PCB for the KG-UV3D, conjure up a nice case (which is why I bought a 3D printer), chop the TT3+ out of […]
