Hi all,?
I have been using my uBITX in a case I purchased from Carl Beck, W5BEK.
I love the radio!
I have one issue going on.? When I transmit on 20 Meters the Raduino switches into menu mode (Band Select)
I'm sure this is a wiring issue, and I probably need to clean up the cross-wiring internally, but it's tough with the cross-connects between some of the components.? I am using VERY short wires to the antenna connector.?
My question to the group is: What should I do from the following list, or all of them, or anything else?
- Use shielded wire bundles to all of the pots and connectors (All Electronics has some nice shielded wire bundles in 2, 3, 4, and 5 conductors)
- Use some RG-174 to the antenna connector (about an inch, currently just wire)
- Tie all grounds together with the copper tape on the insides of the case
- Devise some sort of shield around the raduino
Thanks in advance
