                                 a slot on the top plate and stand the PDA vertically. Figure 5.3 shows
                                 an iPAQ and a Visor positioned next to the transceiver.
                                 For this project, I used the MG Chemical process to create the circuit
                                 board. Protel 98 SE was used to create the schematic diagrams and
                                 printed circuit board (PCB) artwork used in the MG chemical process.
                                 Figure  5.4 shows  the  main  portion  of  the  circuit  board  after  it  was
