Hello! Other threads relating to this haven't been active for several months, so I figured I would start a new one. Was looking into setting up a detector to contribute data and get access to raw data, but it seems those are impossible to purchase at the moment, so instead I am looking into manufacturing my own.
I have located screenshots of schematics and board files at this link (
https://www.blitzortung.org/Compendium/H.../PCB_20_7/ which is linked publicly in the documentation), but I was unable to find any raw schematic files (to open with EDA software to generate gerbers). Are these available anywhere so I can generate files and order parts to manufacture a board myself?

One person has made a small batch of them and will possible make some more in the future. There is a long list of people wanting to joing in.

Yeah, I did see that earlier. Is my answer a no then? I could fairly easily source and manufacture a board myself but only if the correct files are provided - is there a way to get them or is manufacturing just done by this one person?

Gerbers, drills and assembly are available. Eagle files too. What else do you need ?

We plan to assemble Blue system V22 ourself too.
Maybe to combine parts sourcing with you (share links for orders, etc...) ?
Does anyone know current status of PCB22 gerbers and where can be obtain them to try to assemble PCB22 unit ?
