I love DHL because sometimes they deliver pure happiness))
Ohh yes... just received some PCBs from the factory 😀

It fits great in ISA slot:

And has a nice 1mm gap for the metal bracket:

Still receiving components for DIY kits, this is just about 1/10 of all it needs:

Currently I'm working on assembly manual and preparing a big youtube video about this project.

If anyone is interested and wants to build the card yourself - DIY kits will be available soon for about 85 EUR (estimated), which will include ENIG-finished PCB (gold-plated), custom metal bracket, all components (157 in total) and a printed assembly manual. If you only want the card and do not want to solder it yourself - I can solder and check it for you.

Firmware source code will be available on Github as soon as everything will be ready.

Yup, will be interested, including bracket, for self soldering. Looks awesome!

This is very awesome ~

I notice your prototype uses a whole lot of IC sockets.

Are you planning on supplying sockets for all the ICs on the production boards?

I'd prefer sockets only for ICs that are flashable, like the ATmega chip, or other chips that particularly susceptible to heat damage. (and maybe the Opamp ICs in the amplifier, as people like to switch them)

Deal, you'll get the first one!

All ICs were socketed because it was a prototype, so ICs could be changed easily if anything is wrong etc. The kit will only include 28 DIP socket for the Atmega chip for reflashing purposes.

Put me on the list also please, I'd love to build one!

also interested to build one ! put me on the list please.

I'd love to build one too, stick me on the list plz 😀

Still havent built the adlib or snark barker so I cant justify the cost here but it is an amazing project...

Awesome, sounds great. Sign me up for a kit as well!

Hi - if you're still taking requests for kits, I'd love the chance to build one of these, too!

I would also like a kit!

Added to the list

Hello,

I am also very interested. Please put me on the list 😀

And if your list still has open slots, I'd be very happy to take and solder one, too.

Nice i also would like to get a Kit maybe 2 if possible.

You got it! 😀

Just finished drawing the bracket, hope to get them manufactured during next week

If not a secret, where you want order brackets?
