The full story

A radio amateur who says he is not a developer describes what he built with Claude Code for his Ten-Tec Orion and Omni VII stations: a control program, and a modified AetherSDR with a logbook, CW Skimmer and contest logger added.

He also ported newer DSP noise-reduction features from open-source programs such as Thetis and AetherSDR into his own program, and built a native Linux antenna-modelling program using NEC2.

The video description lists other projects too, including three Android apps and an Arch Linux install he could not manage before.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
