Re: Transmitter Mods
Howard
I don't normally do SMD but this sounds like a good idea ... I'll need to order some for this side of the pond, but which physical SMD sizes are these components?

Re: receiver overload
Don't let it get to that potential. If you are talking about lightning and such, yes, short it to ground outside. I am referring to those gentle breezes and what I call static charges. Nothing major,

Re: receiver overload
That is not where you want static charges dissipating! Chokes to ground, resistors, at the antenna. All a better place for it (the fire) to happen.

Re: Transmit indicator light.
In my opinion, the very best LED transmit indicator was the one that Derry Spittle (VE7QK [SK]) used in his Epiphyte QRP SSB series. That was just a 470 ohm quarter watt resistor through a small

Re: receiver overload
The principle idea of my AGC mod is built around the potentiometer RF gain control. It is meant to work in concert with it. As such, that potentiometer works as a static dissipation device to ground.

Re: receiver overload
The stock uBitx provides a DC path to ground.
During receive, that would be K3-12,14, K1-12,14, L1,2,3,4,? and T2.
Don's AGC fix adds AC coupling, there is no DC path:

Re: uBitX with CAT control and Split operation?
Ian's software will do both.
Do a search on KD8CEC on this forum, or?see?www.hamskey.com ( http://www.hamskey.com ).

Re: receiver overload
I'm sure it happens. But not consistently. You need wind and something
to create the charge like blowing dust. If the tuner is dissipating the
charge why doesn't the rig itself do it, at least with an

Re: show your mic
I used an old Motorola hand mic. I just packed the electret element
with a piece of acoustic foam in front and enough behind it to hold it
place with the back on. Works fine.

uBitX with CAT control and Split operation?
Hello
I am planning to buy/build a uBitX for dxped use.
But not sure about CAT control and VFO split ??!

Re: Transmitter Mods
That is to be determined based on the performance I get. Right now, I will adjust VR1 to get 5 watts on 40 meters and go from there.
