Interesting...
Those edge connectors look like standard spacing. In fact, they must be
because of the connector that they plug into. One could probably get
prototype blank boards with edge connectors like that.
What I'd like to try is building a 60 meter module or modifying a 40
meter module to work on 60 meters, if I could get a spare 40 m module
(for less than $90!).
