* Two build in 1200bps AFSK modems
* Build in LoRa transceiver (SX1278)
* Build in FM transceiver
* Connector for external (second) transceiver
* Two USB ports for a network adapter and something else
* Real Time Clock
* Raspberry Pi Zero
It has (software):
* APRX digipeater software for the basic functions
* Apache2 web server for the user interface
* LoRa KISS TNC support (repository found at https://git.meezenest.nl/marcel/RPi-LoRa-KISS-TNC)
* Custom software (from this repository) for extra functionality
## MQTT support
The programs "aprs_telemetry_to_mqtt" and "aprs-mqtt-bridge" are included, but are published separately in my git repo. The ones included work with this version. The ones published separately might or might not work.
