What is it - and why do I need it?
The RA-38 is intended to easily make a portable AllStar Link RF hotspot. It easily connects
to some portable radios like the Baofeng UV-5R (not included) to make a simplex AllStar Link
node with little fuss. Works on VARA FM narrow and other slower digital data protocols too.
The RA-38 senses the COS signal that's available at the radios Earphone jack and connects using a cable
available from another vendor. This enables the user to easily make a simplex node without needing
to do any modifications or building radio cables. The radio cable is not included or available
from me - you will need to purchase it separately / additionally from Tigertronics to complete the
package (details below).
Quick features list:
For the Baofeng UV-5R - use the following cable from Tigertronics - Purchased Separately:

SLCABHTW
NOTE: We supply the RA-38 pre-configured for use with the above cable.
However, you may want the matching configuration module for other reasons - available below.

SLMOD6PM Purchased Separately:
NOTE: Set the SLMOD6PM jumper module to the "12" (1200) position.
All RAs come with a USB cable to connect the interface to the host computer or Raspberry Pi. The cable supplied with the RA-38 has been upgraded with ferrite choke filtering to help reduce RFI and help provide stable operation. RFI issues can result when using a portable radio with a rubber duck antenna directly attached to the radio.
