Hi all,
I recently spent some time putting together a concept radio orienteering
controller aimed at 80 m. I could work on making it "perfect" before
sharing, but I'd really like to get this out of my brain and move onto
the next thing. Or maybe spark some constructive criticism.
The project page has an overview and links to pretty much everything:

My goal was to put something together that's as simple as possible so I
could scratch an itch. There are rough edges, and I don't intend to
compete with time-tested methods being used by you folks who are
actually out there directing and racing. I'm hoping to use this design
to introduce radio orienteering to the local adventure racing community
and maybe get some interest.
Happy to answer any questions.
Also of note, I recently built up the Open ARDF 80m dipole antenna
design and put some notes on the blog:

Thanks,
