In 2012, a C-17 Globemaster landed on a 3,000-ft runway at Peter O. Knight Airport by mistake… instead of MacDill Air Force Base. Then it took off from that same short runway like it was nothing.

Tired of the low data rate on the old-styled tradditional packet radio? Here comes the NEW PACKET RADIO by French Ham F4HDK. NPR-70 means new packet radio over 70cm band. The NPR-70 is a open source project posted on HACKADAY.

The modem’s protocol is designed by F4HDK, without any encryption, which meets the regulations by amateur radio laws. Meanwhile, the modem has a built-in radio transceiver with 500mW RF power output, so there is no additional external radio needed for transmitting and receiving radio signals. You may add a RF power amplifier to boost the 500mW. The configuration of the modem could be done from a PC via telnet or USB-serial Terminal, no additional softwares needed.

Now authorized by the original author F4HDK, https://t.co/XuCiU6BXqZ is proud to produce the NPR-70 modem kit for https://t.co/bs1fINV6OL can either buy an assembled unit or buy a true kit which needs to be soldered and assembled by yourself.
