FM on the uBITx. Interesting. Not a very popular mode on HF but a good exercise in design anyway. Ill draw something up as a theoretical challenge.

Hi,
That won't give the OP the FM mode. But in the Olde Days, prior to 2017, there were many mods publish to add modes to receivers that didn't have them. Mods like a BFO. Mods for a product detector for SSB and improved CW. And lets not forget an FM strip that can be added to the I.F. strip in a receiver. Yes Virginia, there were communication receivers built without BFOs, without product detectors, without FM. What was olde is new again:)
Has anybody done an FM detector for the uBitx or Bitx40? This mail list is for the uBitx and Bitx40 but there ARE other options including the use of transceiving converters. Transverters are transmit additions. At one time transmitters and receivers lived in separate boxes. Some still do. You will want a converter for receive too. Those change the band of operation. Other mods give new modes such as FM such as an FM strip added to a bitx machine. The transmit side will have to be "FMed" too. Not impossible.

Ergo, buy a TenTec transverter... or copy one and you are done!
