Hermes-Lite 2

Made some mods to my Hermes-Lite 2 (HL2).
Click the images to supersize.

Added a power on/off switch to the front panel.


Added DC power socket to rear panel, 9 pin sub D for band data to Hardrock 50 (HR50) linear amp and RF3 input for Pure Signal.

Internals (the lumps in the middle of the power cables are gold plated bullet connectors for easy connect/disconnect)

Isolation milled the HR50 interface (provides band data and PTT)
Pin 2 = TXD Band data (Serial out)
Pin 4 = PTT_IN (in from footswitch)
Pin 5 = GND

and simply added pins for a future second amp interface using i2c
Pin 6 = EXTTR_OUT (out to PA)
Pin 7 = SDA2
Pin 8 = SCL2









Second HL2 in a 40mm case !
