It's difficult to find a new Pi 4, and the last used one I saw sell on eBay went for £90 Sterling plus postage! I don't know if it's feasible to use a different small form factor PC. I am using a Lenovo Tiny PC to do external WSPR decoding from KiwiSDR, instead of a hard to find Pi 4.

Hi Claudio,

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 which I bought last year to build a Portsdown. I doubt I will get around to doing this at the moment as I don't currently have any time to play radio, so if you are in need of a Pi4, I am happy to sell you mine as it is just here gathering dust. It comes complete with a full shield black aluminium heatsink (Pimoroni type). It is a 4GB version and has had little use other than to play around with Python. It is as new with box.
I think i paid around £70 for it including the heatsink. There is also a genuine Pi 4 PSU if you need it, but it has a UK plug.

PM me if you are interested.

73, Jason G7KPM

thanks to a fellow HAM (iW6CHN) I found this site whose mane is self explanatory:

https://rpilocator.com/

you can play with the two columns "Is Stock" and "Last Stock" to get a better updated situation.

Dave G8GKQ pointed me at this page with the last news about the production:

good luck guys!
