PACKET RADIO TRX
DIGICOM MODEM ADD-ON
[ PCB: REV.3 ]
[ MODEM IC: TCM3105 ]
[ TRX: SA818S ]
This is a custom stacked PCB integration for Commodore 64 Packet Radio operation. Combines the classic Digicom modem circuit with a modern integrated transceiver. I'm recreating this project for nostalgic fun after spotting KINZI’s original work on a German C64 community forum. ;-)
The photos below are from KINZI. After I finish my own, I will upload them.
