| It will give about 8 hours of transmitting time with that very simple calculations. It could be maybe a bit overkill but with that you can last a whole WE if needed. Also, you don't have to check everytime before you go if the battery is still OK. | It will give about 8 hours of transmitting time with that very simple calculations.

| - | <color #FF0000>**Sous Cura, on ne peut avoir qu'un seul diamètre global pour les deux buses, qui sera pris en compte. C'est à dire que si vous mettez deux buses de diamètre différent, seul le premier réglage sera pris en compte.**</color> | + | |
| - | As the idea is to have something to use at the QRA as my main rig, and also as a go box, it needs to be quite versatile on the things you can connect. | + | |
| - | At the QRA | ||
| - | I'll often use I think a CB mic with a 6 pins connector with the PTT, so the rig should have a 6 pins CB socket | ||
| - | As I won't have some weight limitations, I'll use an aircraft headset I already have, with 6.35mm and 5.23mm jacks. I'll certainly use adapters to fit the 3.5mm standard jack sockets to avoid overloading the panel with too much sorts of sockets. That kind of headset should give a good audio quality for the ears | ||
| - | If I use the mic of the headset instead of the CB mic, I'll also need a PTT button directly on the panel to transmit | ||
| - | |||
| - | When moving | ||
| - | I'll also have the 2x 3.5mm jacks on the panel, to connect maybe a very light and small mic made from the supplied electret mic of the kit and not having to carry the CB mic if it can't fit inside the box (I don't really want to choose a bigger box just to carry that mic) | ||
| - | The internal speaker could be used outside (I've salvaged a 8ohms 5W something like 60x60mm speaker from an old CB radio) | ||
| - | Or I can connect earplugs on the 3.5mm jack and switch the internal speaker of if needed | ||
| - | Antenna | ||
| The main panel will have a PL259 socket to install all sort of cables or antenna. | The main panel will have a PL259 socket to install all sort of cables or antenna. | ||

| - | When moving | + | Maybe a small tuner for wire antenna like this one if I can deploy wire antenna : https://qrpguys.com/multi-tuner |
