[Drake] R-4C NB pcb interest

[Martin Sole]

Excellent interest in this idea so far. I haven't been able to reply
directly to all as yet but rest assured you are on the list. Several
have mentioned wanting maybe a couple of boards, all helps keep the
price down. Right now I am negotiating to cut a deal which will probably
hinge on a couple of things, drilled vs undrilled, solder resist mask vs
plain copper.

Price for the chosen option will be published here to let everyone know
and firm up the order before we process.

I currently have no interest in producing complete built and tested
noise blanker boards as some have asked. Prime reason is parts
availability, even for the couple that I and my buddy here want for
ourselves we are trying to sort out how to do the cores and maybe the
crystal though it looks like the frequency of the oscillator is not too
critical if the tuned circuits are adjusted to suit. The 7 pin plug is
another matter. We will probably use the supplied jumper plug for our
own boards.
