A simple custom PCB/circuit for a two-way radio project

The circuit board would have to mount on stand-offs in a steel enclosure along with a small FM transceiver. The circuit would need to contain > Some simple switching using NPN transistors > A couple of pots used for audio attenuation > A few filtering caps, > A header pin jumper to reverse one of the input polarity (from active high to low), > Some indicator LEDs, > A local speaker level control > Voltage reduction circuit to reduce 14.8 volts DC down to about 7.5 to 8volts DC > 1 RJ45 jack for external radio interface > DC input jack > External remote switch input to enable the unit on/off with an external switch using a ground connection. BNC antenna connection and DC input may be mounted in the enclosure and wired to the PCB board. This depends on the enclosure and layout of the components. This would be a small volume project that I would like to have a small PCB board house produce in small quantities. I'm not clear on the procedure to have a PCB board fit into an enclosure. The PCB board would not likely fill the entire enclosure due to the transceiver taking up a good portion of the space.

Based on the description it seems you want to transmit/receive some data/audio over FM and then control something based on the data. This should be doable with the customizations you need. Also since you mentioned about the fitting of the board in the enclosure - do you need 3D CAD model for the PCB ? Even that can be done if required but will be outside the scope of this bid. Overall it will involve hardware/schematic design, circuit test/simulation and layout. Since it's important that you are able to have the working PCB at your end - I have suggested 10 days to account for some time required for debugging once you have the PCB.

Hi I do like your project! Please see my portfolio for related projects of RF devices that I have designed already. Just some questions. U don't clarify if U want just the design of it, or U want delivery of board(s) for it., and how many? My offer stands for design & delivery of production files plus one prototyoe for U'r testings. What frequency he TRx will be? About the voltage "reduction" circuit. What is the needed amperage (current draw) from the 7.5V output, that it will need to support? If this is for supplying the FM TRx during transmitting also, then please check what is the TRx consumption during Tx mode, to estimate it. Also will it be OK to have the antenna BNC placed at the pcb edge and use a BNC connector that could easily fit and tightened by it's own, at the enclosure? avoiding coaxial losses from placing it at the enclosure and wire it at the pcb, Another question. Is the FM TRx a ready made unit with enclosure, or it's a board module itself, that will be placed on top of the required pcb (kind like a piggyback)? Now a question for consideration. Would U prefer - consider - to design for you a complete TRx EMBEDDED on the required now PCB, with a little more designing cost? That will offer a total solution, with no extra wirings, etc. fitted at U'r box & probably much cheaper, if you 're going to run even a small (30+ pcs) or production If you do like that option please contact me to give you an offer for it. Best regards Sotiris Papadimitriou

Your project sounds very similar to an in vehicle repeater controller with integrated radio that I am working on. Please see my portfolio for information on that project. I have designed many items like this and I can easily help you out. I specified 7 days -- five business days plus a weekend if I don't start on a Monday. Let's chat and get your project built!

Hi, could you please contact me and have a chat about project details? What kind of radio will be used? Would you also like to manufacture and assemble PCBs in series? Price is negotiable. Regards, Samuel

I am an amateur radio operator (extra class) and a computer engineering student, so I understand quite well the electronics and motivation behind this. I am quite familiar with transceivers and devices that interface with them. This would be a rather small and simple board, judging from the details given thus far. What exactly is the purpose of the board, though? What functionality are you looking for? When you say switching, what is being switched by the transistors? Thank you very much.
