CTR2-Quad – Upgrade Kit

$75.00

STATUS UPDATE

February 2, 2026

I have three Quad PCBs left from the second batch and they’ve been built into assembled CTR2-Quads. I have a third batch of PCBs ordered and they should arrive hopefully by the end of the week. You can order a CTR2-Quad Upgrade Kit now, and it will go on back order until the new PCBs come in. I’ll get the back orders build and shipped ASAP.

This upgrade kit is an ideal solution for those that own older CTR2-Dial or CTR2-Flex hardware and want to upgrade to the latest design. It’s also a good option of international customers wishing to save the additional USD 10 markup for the additional postage required for the fully assembled CTR2-Quad because it’s over the 8 oz. weight limit.

CTR2-Quad is the newest member of the CTR2 product line.With four programmable dual-function knobs, two programmable dual-function pushbuttons, and separate jacks for CW paddles and your key and PTT switch, you’re sure to find the Quad to be the most useful accessory in your shack.

This is an upgrade kit for those that either want to supply their own M5Dial, or swap the M5Dial from an existing CTR2-Dial or CTR2-Flex unit to the new CTR2-Quad. Assembly is required! You can find the assembly manual here. This kit includes the 3D printed enclosure, assembled main and paddle jack PCBs, cables, knobs, switches, rubber feet, and hardware required to build a complete CTR2-Quad unit using the M5Dial that you supply. You will need to mount your M5Dial, install the main PCB, install the paddle jack PCB, connect everything together with the enclosed JST cables, and install the base plate. Be sure to upgrade the firmware on your M5Dial with the latest CTR2-Flex/CTR2-DialĀ firmware. You can find the assembly manual here and the firmware here.

NOTE: TheĀ  plastic knob style and color are subject to availability. You replace the supplied knobs with any knob of your choice that accepts a 6mm knurled shaft.

Description

 


CTR2-Quad includes a touchscreen display that doubles as a control surface offering virtual Dials and ButtonsĀ that allows you to easily change the frequency and settings on your radio. The Dashboard page brings all of the controls to a compact, easy to navigate control page.

CTR2-Flex firmware has a built-in keyer and sidetone. All models support CW paddle input so you can connect your CW paddle to operate CW over your network connection. CTR2-Quad has a separate 3.5mm (1/8″) stereo jack to connect your straight-key (or external keyer) and a PTT switch.

The three small knobs on CTR2-Quad are detent (bumpy) type because these knobs are typically used for volume, squelch, RIT, and DSP control. The large knob is a no-detent (smooth) encoder because it’s typically used for VFO control. Turn and push-and-turn actions on each knob can be assigned two of the Dial functions. The build-in pushbuttons on each of the knob can also be assigned to two Button functions when using short and long-press button actions.

CTR2-QuadĀ is only available in a 3D printed enclosure.

NOTE:Ā The M5Dial has a built-in 12-detent encoder that is not counted in the knob count but it can be assigned a to dial function.

* This unit ships with CTR2-Flex v2 firmware. This firmware can boot into CTR2-Flex or CTR2-Dial. The firmware boot option can be selected in the Settings menu.
