   * This design assumes the PTT on your radio is active low. In theory you could swap it in software but this runs the risk of leaving your radio keyed if the software closes. Ideally if your radio is active high you'd make changes to the transistor arrangement.   * This design assumes the PTT on your radio is active low.

 +  * Concerns have been raised about the longevity of the PCB track USB connector. To increase the longevity you could use a short USB extension. This also reduces the risk of damaging the sound interface when its plugged into a computer, and allows attaching a ferrite to the cable.
   * I've only made minor changes to a mishmash of existing designs. Thanks to WB6NIL (SK), W9SH, M0NFI, G7RPG, G5REV and many others for coming up with various CM108 mods.   * I've only made minor changes to a mishmash of existing designs.
