Finally found time to finish up my ubitx.
I am *impressed*.
Tuning works fine. Audio sounds fine. Calibration is dead on. BFO is
dead on. Using a 16ohm speaker the audio is plenty loud and the ws 2822
doesn't seem to get warm.
The tuneup PTT current was a little low at 400ma but the bias voltage
for the irf510's adjusted properly. Total of 600ma draw on ptt.
The only holdup now is that my old CB mic with a dynamic element simply
doesn't provide enough output. I have an old mic I'm going to put an
electret element in.
Notes for mods: 1. get rid of audio pops, 2. AGC.
I am simply amazed at the functionality of this rig at this price
point. Mr. Farhan has put out something amazing. This could literally
be the first rig for thousands of new hams.
