| The system is fully contained inside of a 159.99mm x 78.00mm x 43.00mm (6.3" x 3.071" x 1.69") aluminum metal enclosure. Card guides on the inside of the case provide a secure shelf for the PCB's. Production units will be a blue metal etched with silkscreen providing part numbers, links to documentation and more. | The system is fully contained inside of a 159.99mm x 78.00mm x 43.00mm (6.3" x 3.071" x 1.69") aluminum metal enclosure.

| This is a picture of the radio part way through assembly. All of the major building blocks have been built, they are just waiting to be put together. The assembly instructions are detailed further down. Some of the smaller items (screws, spacers, nuts) are hard to see and aren't specifically called out in the picture. The PCB and belly plate are included twice to show both sides. | This is a picture of the radio part way through assembly.

| ==== Bill of Materials ==== | |
| * This is a list of everything contained inside the radio unit itself. If you were to disassemble the radio... if you are inclined to do so, please read the assembly section FIRST... these are all the bits and pieces you would end up with. | |
| * Carrier PCB | |
| * {{:resources:eval:user-guides:pzsdr:carriers:adrv1cc-box:carrier.jpg?400| }} | |
| * Power Switch | |
| * {{:resources:eval:user-guides:pzsdr:carriers:adrv1cc-box:power_switch.jpg?400| }} | |
| * [[adi>ADRV9361-Z7035]] | |
| * 10 U.FL to SMA Cables | |
| * [[../cable-brackets|3D Printed plastic brace]] | |
| * This protects the U.FL connection on the PCB and guarantees the cable does not come lose. | |

| * Li-ion Battery | |
| * There are safety regulations surrounding the shipment of Lithium Ion Batteries. | |
| * The United States Department of Transportation highlights the [[https://www.phmsa.dot.gov/safe-travel/batteries|restrictions]], but the PackRF is allowed for both checked baggage and carry on. | |

| [[https://wiki.analog.com/resources/eval/user-guides/pzsdr/carriers/portable-radio-reference-design/assembly-instructions|Assembly]] of the Portable Radio Reference Design is almost as complicated as some of the hardware and software. At the very least, it occupies a significant amount of time and will cause headaches, finger aches and if you do not pay attention or follow directions, it will test your patience. | [[/resources/eval/user-guides/pzsdr/carriers/portable-radio-reference-design/assembly-instructions|Assembly and test]] of the Portable Radio Reference Design is almost as complicated as some of the hardware and software.

| A detailed list of instructions is provided in the event you decided to open your Portable Radio Reference Design. Perhaps you are just assembling a unit. In either case, before you try to fix something or start building, have a look at the instructions provided below. There are a few pitfalls which can damage part of the radio and send you three steps back before you continue forward. | A detailed list of instructions is provided in the event you decided to open your Portable Radio Reference Design.
