Re: Ubitx V5# CW Key not working# audio is harsh#

Hey Curt, thanks for your note. I did the works to short out the straight key issue not working.?
As I mentioned I can see the ADC drop to zero, so hardware faults are doubtful.?
I mostly wanted to share in case someone else has V5 problems.?

nice work in your build and debug.?

given the paddle function to be working, and a presume to send good CW via the transmitter, hard to fathom how manual keying can't be working - with an appropriate voltage read there.? given your pot experiment, I presume you tested it down to zero and not found any manual keying.? I suggest manual keying with a piece of wire, to confirm you don't have excessive corrosion on the key contact - then you could try substituting a resistor for the 4.7 k resistor (also measure that critter).?

A firmware copying issue seems so unlikely with everything else working.? I really think the issue is hardware.?

The sidetone on the v4 is dreadfully loud.? I don't recall any related changes in v5.? Therefore I suggest that you consider this mom developed by a ham in my local club -- I did it and it works wonderfully.?
