Our Mission
We are developing commercially available radio to compete with the likes of Anytone, Yaseu, ICOM, China, etc.
Most radio companies are selling outdated hardware with bad, closed source software and lackluster updates and support. The majority of open source projects are not very beginner friendly, in many cases requiring hardware mods.
Open Source, Repairable, Modular
We aim to change that in our first radio, The HT-15. What will set this radio apart from competitors is:
- Fully open source, hardware and software
- Swappable radio module, allowing easy hardware upgradability (2M/70CM at launch)
- Target price around $300, Selling all individual parts on our website for repairability
Digital First and Accessable
- USBC charge and data, SD card, Kenwood style audio connector
- Low-power E-ink display targeting 72+ hour standby time
- FM and M17 support at launch, with plans to support many other digital modes in the future such as DMR, P25 (depending on codec licensing)
- Ability for community to write and easily install “apps” that allow custom features or arbitrary digital mode development
- Usable off the shelf. We will be selling the radio as a complete unit (not just a devboard)
Support and Updates
After this product is launched, it will remain open source and we will be selling the hardware on our website, maintaining and improving the code, and working on additional radio modules.
We are going to be posting regular development logs on our youtube channel, in addition to bringing y’all along on the process of starting a hardware business.
