Angelia Introduction

ANGELIA is a state-of-the-art soft core uP 4th generation DDC/DUC, Hermes-like, transceiver board that incorporates an Altera Cyclone IV FPGA and dual LTC2208 ADCs. The large FPGA and dual ADCs permit exceptional versatility and performance. The FPGA is large enough to allow on-board, soft-core processing, if desired, and the dual ADCs allow true coherent receiver operations.

The developers are: Joe, K5SO (Firmware & SOftware), Abhi (Hardware & PCB), needless to say that Angelia is based on the work of the OpenHPSDR Community, The price point of Angelia would be much higher than Hermes due to the BOM costs,

We have two fully functional prototypes funded by Apache Labs, currently I have no information on pricing and availability,

Hi All,

I am pleased to announce that the production data of ANAN-10 (10W+ PA and Extrusion) has been licensed to Apache Labs Pvt Ltd, this will be made concurrently available along with the TAPR made Hermes Boards.

There would be a One year Manufacturers warranty on the 10W+ PA (not Hermes? still to be decided if Apache Labs is willing to undertake warranty for TAPR produced Hermes cards!), I need to work out if Apache Labs can buy the Hermes cards from TAPR and have the entire transceiver assembled & Tested before shipping to the customer.

I will update the blog once bookings go online, please note that no payment is required to book a preorder.

Pricing and sales details would be available shortly from the Apache Labs portal (I will provide the link to the preorder webpage shortly),

100W Version

Have not been able to give much time to the hobby lately, the 100W version has also been assembled, tested and housed in the production extrusion, thought I should at least put a couple of pictures online......
