Key Features

[Upgraded SHARI PiHat] Add a 5V 1-1.5A USB-C port. Small, portable with self contained radio and antenna, SHARI(SA818 Ham Allstar Radio Interface) is designed for construction and uses in the amateur radio service, works with a Pi2/Pi3 or Pi4, SHARI RF output power is 500 to 1000 (default) milliwatts
[RPI Hosted Allstar Node] SHARI PiHat implements a Raspberry Pi hosted Allstar node using a Nice RF SA818 embedded UHF (420-450 MHz|70cm) radio module, often used to build a personal RF "hot spot" AllStarLink node. In order to create an Allstar node, SHARI plugs into two USB jacks on a Raspberry Pi2/Pi3/Pi4 or Pi5 for power, the Allstar interface and radio programming (a short M/F USB extender cable can be used if desired)
[Power Supply] SA818 Ham Allstar Radio Interface is a power supply intended for the version of the Raspberry Pi. These supplies typically provide 5.1 to 5.2 VDC to the Pi. Please Note Current requirements vary with version. Numerous problems with Allstar Nodes have been traced to inadequate power supplies
[Indicate Status] Front panel LEDs indicate the status of SHARI-POWER (green), USB Audio CONNECTION STATUS (blinking green), COS (green) and PTT (red); SHARI PiHat uses 5 volts from the Pi, and the best place to measure it is from pin 8 (+5) to pin 9 (GND) of the SA818 module
[Radio Module] SHARI PiHat uses a single circuit board which contains installed surface mount (SMD) parts as well as 2 through-hole parts, a surface mount SMA connector and the SA818 (UHF) radio module; PiHatU also uses the Cmedia CM119B USB audio IC
[Setting Up the SA818 RF Module on ASL3] Two new commands have been added to ASL3 Pi Appliance systems for module programming SA818-menu, a visual interface for configuring RF module settings, and the sa818 command line interface for users who prefer manual coding
