JUMA TRX2 is available as a discrete kit with components and bare circuit boards. The enclosure is machined and printed. Only few coils need to be wound when constructing JUMA TRX2. A completely assembled transceiver and other building help is also available with the help of the JUMA community.

Additionally there are two models: The two band model TRX2 for 80m and 40m ham bands and the all ham band model TRX2A with a general coverage receiver. The two band model can be upgraded any time into the all band model by adding related modules. Several add on option modules are also available for both models.

Board interconnections are made using flat cables. The 1st AF filter and the polyphase modules are plugged to the main board.

The DDS board is mounted to the front panel. The Main board is mounted horizontally to the aluminum profile.

The two band 10W PA with related RF filter circuits on board. The final FETs are installed to the rear panel. Only few toroidal coils need to be wound when constructing the JUMA TRX2.
