Current Engineering Project
I keep this engineering notebook more for my own use more than for any other reason. It's invaluable when trying to find a solution to a problem I know I've solved before. You are welcome to browse though it to see what it takes to build a SETI station.

419 - Head End Rebuild - 2018-07-22
Pulling the parts together now. I bought a new case (Pelican 1200 from Amazon) and am trying to decide if I can use a transfer switch or twin SPDT for the filter In/Out switch. Amazon continues to amaze me. I ordered the case Sunday morning and it was on my door step Sunday evening. That company owns me.
I am also going to start with CAT 5 cable again. Single one this time and send the RS-485 up on two pair of wires. That way I can get the control signals up on 4 of the wires and +35VDC up on the other 4.
I still plan to put in a 14 pin connector even though most of it will be empty.
