Re: New V6 on the air

 

there is vfo a and vfo b. if you switch to vfo a and tune around, then switch the vfo, the previous frequency is saved on vfo a. works the same way with vfo b too. with the two you can also work split. i usually set the vfo a to my fav 7020 and the vfob to 14.200 mhz.

Matt,
Congratulations on the successful build!? Now the fun continues with upgrades and modifications to make it just the way you want it.

Since you are talking about case options, I will assume that you did not buy the full kit.? If this is incorrect, let us know.

What is it you do not like with the speaker options?? There are mods to the audio section to either reduce hiss, gain, or other changes.? I would suggest searching this message board for the symptom that you want to correct.

Yes, you do need a TRS plug to connect to the headphone jack.? The tip and ring are connected together to the output of the LM386.? Using a mono plug will short out the output of the audio amp.? NOTE: there is a speaker jack on the mainboard per the schematic.? I attached a picture of the mainboard with labels of the connections. The speaker connection is the P4 two-pin connector next to the volume control.? ?I must apologize to the contributor, as I do not have the contributor that provided the picture and labels.

I do not have a v6, so I cannot be sure if there is a memory function.? When I checked the HFSignals.com page, I did find under the circuit description an explanation of the controls.? A memory function was not listed there.? The controls description is far down the page under "Operating the Radio."


As to what to do next, the short answer would be to operate!? Get on the air and make contact.? The longer answer is to search the web for upgrades or mods that you would like.? A good source other than this board is .? There a lot of modifications listed there.?

Have fun!
