Well, got my Bitx40 over the weekend, ?Wired it up and it doesn't work.? That is, the hiss from the speaker can be volume controlled.? The display has all blackened row of pixels.? Tuning will not respond even with antenna connected. Connected a dummy load and PTT brings up the xmiter and additional current draw.? However no response from the mic.? The rArduino shows the power ON led working.? The display pot works.? Pressing the Arduino reset button seem not to do much.? I have several of the Arduino Nano here.? I may have lost the sketch for the Bitx 40.? If I had the code I could down load it again.? Yes -I triple checked my wiring.? Disappointed that it isn't responding.? I got the instructions for assembly off the HFSIGS web site.? I suppose it'll mean oscope time...wasn't planning to make this a career HI ?It may still turn out to be something goofy (I hope), ?I'm hoping there is a Sketch listed somewhere. ?any ideas will be appreciated.

If you go to the HFSIGS web site you will see that he states that it's not perfect?
Here is a copy and paste ;?The BITX40 will inspire you to experiment. Modify it, mount it, tweak it, change it.?
Also stated;?Raduino is a standard Arduino Nano ??
