Hi, I'm Elijah Brown and welcome to my site, AD7ZJ.net! The name AD7ZJ is my ham radio callsign, and I occasionally post stuff I'm working on here for my own reference and for the benefit of anyone else who is interested.
Electronics/Software Projects
This is a collection of side projects related to electronics and software. I enjoy tinkering with both.
- OpenAWOS Used at our glider field to automatically report wind over VHF radio.
- Vaisala 425A Anemometers Used by my diy AWOS system above.
- Remote Cellular Switch Used to turn on an engine pre-heater remotely.
- FLARM Teardown
- Stratus 1 Teardown
