Arduino Projects and Kits for Amateur Radio Operators
Find Arduino-based projects, kits, and shields designed for various amateur radio applications and experiments.
Arduino microcontrollers have become a popular platform for ham radio operators to build and experiment with custom station accessories and test equipment. Hams use these versatile boards for everything from simple control tasks to complex signal generation, often integrating them into existing transceivers or homebrew projects. The open-source nature of Arduino hardware and software makes it an accessible entry point for operators looking to add digital intelligence to their radio setups.
Many operators leverage Arduino for antenna projects, station automation, and digital mode interfaces. For example, specific projects like the RFzero platform extend Arduino capabilities into the RF domain, allowing hams to develop signal generators and frequency synthesizers. Another common application is the creation of Morse code decoders, such as the MorseDuino CW Decoder Kit, which helps operators practice and interpret CW signals. These tools enhance amateur radio activity by providing flexible, programmable solutions for various operational needs.

M2 CW decoder Kit, is an Arduino based morse code decoder, kit produced and delivered by WB7FHC -
The RFzero is a multi function signal platform developed for radio amateurs who wants to extend the Arduino skills in combination with RF. The RFzero board is largely compatible with the Arduino Zero and Arduino M0 boards, however, it has been carefully designed for flexible use in RF applications and with attention to the frequency spectrum and stability performance.
