Description

External Keypad for Icom and Kenwood transceivers

I designed this PCB for an external keypad for Icom (IC-705, IC-7610) and Kenwood (TS-890, TS-990) transceivers. The PCB quality from PCBWay is excellent, with a sharp, well-aligned silkscreen that clearly labels all components. This makes assembly straightforward not only for me as the designer, but also for anyone building the project. Combined with the detailed bill of materials and step-by-step instructions I provide, the board is very accessible even for less experienced builders. Pads, vias, and overall finish are clean and precise, and the dimensions match the design perfectly. Delivery was fast and the boards arrived well packaged.
