Re: Display Board evaluation help
Bill, I have a working V12 single transceiver.? My initial cable of 12" worked when it was on my bench but when I mounted in the encloser it quit working.? Not sure if that is long enough for a test

T41 V11 operates in full duplex during transmit calibration.? So perhaps predistortion can be applied.? That would be an interesting experiment.? But V12 will not work, unless the TX calibration

Re: [SoftwareControlledHamRadio] Rob Sherwood Presentation Slides on Amateur Radio Transceiver Performance
The new attenuator/ 20W dummy load I made can be used as just a 40db tap on the RF line for feedback for something like this (besides the radio calibration). I don¡¯t think it¡¯s that difficult to

Re: [SoftwareControlledHamRadio] Rob Sherwood Presentation Slides on Amateur Radio Transceiver Performance
Jerry, The Thetis software for the Hermes Lite, ANAN and radioberry radios has adaptive predistortion and you can examine the source files to see how it works. Thise radios have the capability of

Display Board evaluation help
I have a couple of the 3.3V ONLY display boards prebuilt and I want a couple of volunteers to test them out. They have to be: 1) people with working radios, and 2) have displays that misbehave

Sorry Phil, I have no idea now. Never bothered keeping records. Should have as there seem to be muliple versions. I just ordered the 5" in the minimum configuration suggested on the group. Glenn vk3pe

Re: Conductive Paint
*** I had to look that up. How can a big square have the same resistance as a little one? It's because as you add length - increasing the resistance - you also add width - decreasing it. - Jerry,

Re: Conductive Paint
The resistance of a flat surface is called sheet resistance, measured in ohms per square. Not square inches or square cm, just per square. After that, it looks like things get complicated. The amount

** Yeah, the attenuation for the cheap carbon stuff doesn't look too good around 20M. I bought a roll of self-stick copper tape that claims that their adhesive is conductive. I figure I can put that
