Just arrived (10 days from Japan) I’ve worked for a couple of hours to assemble the U3S Deluxe kit from QRP Labs, later I wanted to try the GPS receiver for my LF activity by Spectrum Lab, so I made the smoke test giving 5 volts to the GPS receiver.

The GPS receiver was positioned inside my lab room, close to the window, it was capable to find 7 or 8 satellites.

1pps and Data Out has been connected to the input of sound card of my laptop and finally I saw a perfectly synchronized system.

An now it’s time to try the rest of the kit after winding the LPF.

Here is the U3S without the LPF:
