PicCon is a PIC microcontroller based radio controller designed for
hidden transmitter hunting. When combined with a radio transmitter,
it will produce tone sequences and Morse code messages at user-programmed
times. It is completely field programmable via DTMF tones, utilizes
EEPROM for all programmed options so they are remembered when power
is removed, and is quite compact.
PicCon interfaces to a radio transceiver much like a packet radio
TNC does. It is controlled by the audio it receives from the radio,
in the form of DTMF tones, and operates the radio by controlling
the Push To Talk (PTT) while sending audio in the form of tones and
modulated CW Morse code. PicCon draws only a few milliamps, and
runs off any 7-35VDC source, including a standard 9-volt battery.
