Re: Combiner calculation spreadsheet
Sorry to show my ignorance, I am not too sure what you mean by combiner, is it to feed different antennas in an array or some kind of diplexer to use one coax for several antennas on several bands ?

Combiner calculation spreadsheet
Attached is my spreadsheet for building combiners in your garage. You input the frequency, and that fixes the length of the wave guide. Then select the diameter of the inner conductor and that fixes

Re: [SoftwareControlledHamRadio] Tx-Rx logic on LPF-Control
First, R8-R11 should NOT BE POPULATED under I2C control. U15 pins GPA0 and GPA1 should ALTERNATE STATE. NOTHING should be plugged into J1 unless it LISTENS ONLY. U3 and U7 appear to be working

Re: 20 W Amp Oscillates
*** Hi Bill, I upgrade constantly. Have to, because I'm working on the software. I have lots of versions on my server. I'll downgrade and see if that fixes it. - Jerry

Re: 20 W Amp Oscillates
Jerry, Try removing C18 on the LPF-Control or grounding the receive pins on the TR switch. I think the feedback is getting in through U1 & U8. Maybe the control logic is not correct. dave

Re: 20 W Amp Oscillates
I think this is a software issue. I need to consult with Oliver. Several people magically started having oscillation problems at the same time where this was never an issue. Almost like something is

Re: 20 W Amp Oscillates
No progress on my oscillation problem. I figured maybe it was external feedback from the LPF to the BPF. So I tried moving the BPF farther away from the LPF...no difference. Then I disconnected the

Re: 20 W Amp Oscillates
I have narrowed the amplifier oscillation to feedback getting through the Tx/Rx solid state switch area. If I remove C18, the oscillations go away. [email protected]> wrote:

I think it has to do with whether or not your browser will accept older pages that are not HTTPS available.

Re: T41 high frequency weirdness
Well, I did recently... Wire up an EHFW antenna. And a coax switch. The coax switch switches between my existing trap vertical, the EFHW, and the dummy load. The EFHW has a dedicated MFJ998RT remote
