Re: BITX40- tune button- no output


 

Thanks Mike, but according to ,?

CONNECTING A STRAIGHT MORSE KEY or 'TUNE' BUTTON:

A straight key (or external electronic keyer) can be connected to Raduino pin A1 (connector P1, brown wire). It is recommended to install a 1K series resistor to protect the Arduino input. When the key is up (open) pin A1 will be HIGH. When the key is down (closed, shorted to ground) pin A1 will be LOW, and a carrier will be transmitted.

You could also wire up a simple push button instead of connecting a morse key. The generated CW carrier can be used for tuning up your antenna. In that case please note that you will be transmitting a carrier at full duty cycle, therefore don't keep the tune button pressed for too long to prevent overheating the final!

Am I misunderstanding something here?? Aloha, Steve
