Due to the Qorvo Power Amplifier in the original design being deprecated, the power amplifier was swapped to the newer Qorovo RFFM6406. This was more of just a name change as the pinout is identical and the electrical specifications of both chips are nearly identical.

This repository contains a KiCad project with a hardware reference implementation for the OpenLST. This design is a simplified version of the Texas Instruments CC1110 432 MHz reference design. A 1 watt power amplifier module has been added to increase operating range. The design is intended for use at 437 MHz, however, it may be modified for use at other frequencies.
The user is responsible for obtaining and maintaining the necessary license to operate this radio. The example project uses frequencies in the US Amateur Radio UHF band. Transmissions in this band require a valid FCC license and compliance with CFR Part 97.
