Great build Yves and I see you have lots of room for a decent size batteries.
I noticed you removed the heat sink on the regulator on the Raduino,?
did you make some mods to the board that reduced the heat generated?
that made this possible? I¡¯ve added a 47ohm resistor in-line with the?
12v feed to the regulator and that reduced the heat generated by the large?
voltage drop across the regulator.

Nice project Yves, welcome to the Bitx world.

I now have a Bitx40 and a uBitx. A lot of the fun is reading all the mods and ideas posted on this group and trying them out.

Just had to build one of these?.. I used to have a KX3, but what I really wanted was a lunch box radio I could just leave on the ground outside.
