- | Microprocessors seem to be inside everything nowadays, and ham gear is no different. There are kits available for devices that are useful in ham radio that are make use of a microprocessor in one way or another. We'd like to invite people who are interested in using, or learning about microprocessors to join the kit builders and share your experiences and successes. We expect that our efforts will be centered around the Arduino family of processors which have a lot of support available, but if you have a kit that uses another microprocessor, | + | Microprocessors seem to be inside everything nowadays, and ham gear is no different.
