Description:
The RA-DR1X is available because of feedback received from a user.

David Lowrence AL5X contacted me describing a modification he did to a RA-40 radio adapter to allow it to revert the Yaesu DR-1X to local control if something AllStar wise fails. If the Raspberry Pi or radio adapter fails, the DR-1X will revert to in-cabinet contol and continue to work. The DR-1X requires an open collector logic output of the correct logic direction in order to accomplish this. The modification requires one additional transistor than a conventional RA-40 has. The RA-DR1X is the result of the modification to the RA-40 shown in Dave's article. Unlike Dave's modification, all added parts are on the component side of the PC board, allowing the radio adapter to fit in our optional case.

In addition to the added transistor logic, one additional 3-pin configuration header allows selection of the original RA-40 revert logic. This allows the RA-DR1X to be configured identically to a RA-40. You don't lose any functionality with this adapter, you only gain functionality to use it with the Yaesu DR-1X or DR-2X repeaters.

The DR-2X requires a slightly different wiring arrangement then what's shown in Dave's article.
