-The Winter Hill receiver project by Brian G4EWJ with hindrance occasional help from Mike G0MJW. It uses the BATC [[Advanced receiver hardware]].
-The software will run on the Raspberry Pi4 desktop environment providing a multi-channel receiver capable of receiving up to four channels simultaneously.
-== Timeline==
-December 2020 - Currently the project is at the design phase with a proof of concept receiver working on breadboard hardware.
-February 2021 - beta testing in progress
-March 2021 - First production PCBs expected
-==Hardware==
-The PCB design by Mike G0MJW is based on a completely new concept, BATC Advanced DATV Receiver, supporting two SERIT tuners with an integrated Raspberry PI4 and PICs. No USB module is required. This supports 4 simultaneous receivers in either a set top box mode, with the PI desktop, or headless, or a combination of these.

-Feasibility design which worked fine
-====Version 0.2====
-A prototype that was also built by several beta testers. Two pin programming jumper instead of 3 pin and didn't fit in the box.
-====Version 1====
-First general release PCB - Likely release March 2021
