Get the book with the kit! This special bundle includes:
You'll enjoy countless hours operating this tiny high performance radio. Build the kit in just a few hours, and you'll be working the world with low-power fun!
Whether you're taking a 10-minute DX break from your computer at work or home or back-packing in the mountains, the Cub is a great way to put the magic back into your ham radio.
The Cub uses Surface Mount Technology (SMT) to achieve big performance in a pocket-sized package. The kit has all SMT parts mounted and soldered. You just insert and solder the through-hole parts such as the connectors, inductors and trimmer caps/pots.
The Cub is portable: set it up anywhere, and tuck it out of the way when its not in use!
Also available: ARRL's Low Power Communication (without kit)

Use the parts kit to build the experiments in ARRL's Hands-On Radio*, by H. Ward Silver, N0AX. The experiments in the book cover a wealth of topics including basic radio fundamentals, components, circuits and design. You'll enjoy heating up soldering irons, plugging in components, learning what makes your radio work and more!
Enclosed is a list of parts included in the kit. The list is based on the parts list provided in the back of the book.
*book not included
Also available: ARRL's Hands-On Radio Experiments (sold separately).

The topics up to and including Ohm's Law are considered the most basic and are covered in detail. The remaining topics cover additional fundamental components of basic electronics, however they receive only brief coverage.
The course can be presented in platform discussion, guided practice, and open question format as the material dictates.
The recommended reference for this course is Understanding Basic Electronics, sold separately.

The Robotics with the Boe-Bot text includes 41 new activities for the Boe-Bot Robot with structured PBASIC 2.5 source code support and bonus challenges with solutions in each chapter. Starting with basic movement and proceeding to sensor-based projects, the Boe-Bot is expandable for many different robotic projects. You quickly learn about embedded projects, from wiring and components to programming and mechanical dependencies. The kit includes a set of passive components (wires, resistors, capacitors), sensors (photoresistors, bumpers, infrared sensors) and hardware (whisker touch-sensor kit) to complete the different projects. No previous robotics, electronics or programming experience is necessary!
The Boe-Bot Robot takes about 1-2 hours to put together. Completing the entire set of projects takes 50 hours and is suitable for anybody over 12 years of age. The USB Board of Education (and BS2-IC) may also be removed to be used as your platform for the other kits in the Stamps in Class series.
After mastering the basics, use your skills on one of these projects:

All oscilloscope controls are managed through one of two software interface platforms. Both platforms include classic scope features such as Auto and Normal trigger modes, variable trigger voltage, external triggering, and auto-measurements (Min, Max, Frequency, Period). Three easy-to-use cursor functions to measure acquired signals manually, with the option to snap to the waveform. Each platform also allows you to save customized setups, and to export data and bitmaps for analysis and inclusion in reports.
Software Versions and System Requirements:
*Version 4.0, which operates on Windows 2K/XP, is compatible with the Understanding Signals v1.0/v1.0a Stamps in Class text.
*Version 5.1, which runs on Windows XP/Vista, does not support the Understanding Signals text.

The What’s a Microcontroller? text answers the question, “What’s a Microcontroller?” by showing students how they can design their own customized, intelligent inventions using the BASIC Stamp® module. It incorporates a variety of fun and engaging experiments that appeal to the imagination using motion, light, and sound. The activities are designed to introduce many basic principles in the fields of computer programming, electricity and electronics, mathematics and physics. The text is designed to accommodate a wide range of ages and skill levels.
Includes:
A Board of Education (BOE) and BStamp or the Basic Stamp 2 Carrier Board and the BStamp is required to use this product.
