Experience the power of the SVXLink Analog Transceiver2, a cutting-edge HAT designed exclusively for the Raspberry Pi Zero.

Equipped with a powerful UHF 70 cm band radio module, this versatile device features a cutting-edge DAC/ADC, allowing it to operate seamlessly as an EchoLink/SVXLink analog hotspot, an EchoLink/SVXLink analog simplex repeater, or even an APRS 2m Digipeater.

What's more, with the combination of a remote SVXLink with AnalogBridge (DVSwitch), you gain access to digital networks, including the Brandmeister and OpenDMR network, unleashing a world of limitless possibilities.

Sensitivity Measurements

The 12 dB SINAD was calculated by processing a recording of a 1 kHz tone generated with FM modulation at a 2.5 kHz deviation, which was then fed into our module.

Compliance Measurements

All measurements were conducted using a calibrated Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) and a calibrated 36 dB attenuator. The worst-case harmonic observed was the third harmonic, measured at −63.56 dBc. This performance exceeds the requirements set by the CE RED directive for devices with output power below 30 dBm. Specifically, ETSI EN 300 220 requires spurious emissions to be at least 43 dB below the carrier power for transmitters up to 30 dBm. Our device comfortably meets and surpasses this standard, offering an additional safety margin of over 20 dB.

The spectrum analysis confirms similarly excellent performance for spurious emissions, with no significant unwanted emissions detected. Additionally, the device transmits cleanly within the 12.5kHz channel bandwidth, ensuring precise and reliable operation.

When compared to leading brands such as Kenwood, Icom, and Yaesu, our device holds its own:

• Our measured spurious emission levels of -63.56dBc clearly demonstrate superior spectral purity.

This level of performance ensures compliance with international standards and places our device in the same league as the most respected brands in the market.
