Proficio
The Proficio is the next generation of Transceivers. It is an all band version (160M - 10M) transceiver.
It has all the features of our previous transceiver:
•96kHz digital I/Q interface. No additional sound card needed. Only one USB connection is needed.
•Two tone, 2 kHz spacing, third-order dynamic range: 99 dB.
•Support for Elecraft T1 automatic antenna tuner.
•External Amplifier control via AMP port.
•CW Key Jack.
•DG8SAQ/PE0FKO/SoftRock control interface.
•Open Source firmware.
•Firmware Field Updates via on board USB bootloader.
•Hardrock 50 control when using MSCC.
With these additional features:
• All band. The Proficio covers all bands from 160M to 10M.
• Enhanced receive. A RF amplifier is now in the RF front end that provides about 19db of gain at 10M and tapers down to about 0db at 160M
• Receive Band Pass Filters for all band groupings (160M,80M,40M-60M,20M-30M,15M-17M,12M-10M)
• The same BPFs are used in conjunction with Low Pass Filters in the transmit path to provide a clean output.
• 5W Class A PA. Clean output of 5W on all bands (slightly less on 160M and 10M).
• Real CW. Supports zero latency CW. Software generated CW is not required.
Multus SDR, LLC. provides a custom in house produced host application - MSCC.
MSCC is custom designed for the Proficio and is recommended when operating the Proficio.
We believe our transceiver kit when used with our MSCC custom host application, is the easiest to use SDR transceiver kit available in amateur radio market.
The build time is approximately one hour.
Installing and using our transceiver on your PC is plug and play. There are no cumbersome and confusing configurations to deal with.
If building a kit is not your thing, we offer a build service at a nominal cost.
The build service provides a professionally built and fully tested transceiver.
The Proficio is also compatible with all host SDR applications that work with the Basic (HDSDR, Genesis SDR, Quisk and others).
The Proficio is supplied as a kit with all SMD devices installed. The customer needs only to install the thru hole components.
Specifications:
Receive:
Continuous from 1.8MHz to 30MHz. (Lower sensitivity below 1.8MHz and between amateur bands)
Sensitivity: MDS: Average -123db. (-125db on 10M. -121db on 160M) ( MDS performance specifications for amateur bands only.)
Transmit:
Power Output: 5W, 4W minimum (transmit permitted on amateur bands only).
Spurious Emissions: Meets or exceeds FCC requirements (-43db from carrier).
Frequency Stability: 1PPM (when using MSCC).
