HB9UF/gm950_interface

Repository files navigation

This is a simple interface that plugs into the back of Motorola GM950 radios to break out:

  • Flat RX audio
  • Flat TX audio
  • The PTT line
  • Open collector COS or TOS (depending on configuration)

The intended use for this project is to connect a link transceiver to the EchoLink network. The interface was designed for the GM950 series but may also work with GM350 (untested). It was designed with KiCad 5.1.5 as a quick replacement for a failed unit. The first version was milled in-house during the COVID-19 lock-down, thus traces are extra wide and on a single layer to ease the manufacturing process.
