A collection of summary notes for AgOpenGPS PCB designs.
As I familiarize myself with the PCB options, I’m collecting a summary list of AoG PCB designs. If you’d like your design listed here please post it in a new topic and I will add it to this summary list. Please do not discuss individual designs here. Instead, find an existing topic relevant to your question or start a new topic. Also, if you see any errors or you feel I forgot to mention a significant feature, please let me know.
