Re: mbitx V5 versus V6

Martin,

The version 6 is current and for sale through the HF Signals site.
Farhan has advised delays may occur in dispatch of current orders as the workers were working a full speed in order to fulfil dispatches before in time for our christmas holiday period.
the assembly team are currently on a well earned rest in while they prepare the next batch.
there are the two pricing options shown each taking you to their own order page.

UBITX V6 ¨C BUY THE BASIC KIT



UBITX V6 ¨C BUY THE FULL KIT


I would guess the minimal sales of the bitx40 compared to the ubitx, made the down time and reorganisation required for the assembly for the product un sustainable.
I believe Sunil(?) has advised the group of his intention to update his through hole kits, this could be an alternative learning tool for your JOTA students

Hello to All,

I'm rather confused. Just bought the V5 version, got it up and running, including the software-change. Then the V6 started to be offered.

And suddenly the V6, which is far more expensive than the V5, seems to be the only version mentioned (but not sold!) through Farhans webshop... Confusion...First the BitX40 is not offered anymore (which is a bit of a shame, because our team of jota-amateurs wanted to buy a few sets for fresh junior-jota-amateurs) And now the cheaper mBitX V5 is also on the verge of being extinct?

In the links on the emaillist the V5 appears still on sale and available, but the V6 (NOT for sale here!) is the only one promoted in the MENU-list on Farhams website.

Link to V5 ($129 USD) :
Link to V6 (not for sale through Farhans site) :

My question to Farham: Will the V5 be taken off the sale list, as happened to the bitx40?

Thanks for your answers,
With regards, Martin, PD0ZZ from the Netherlands
