Re: Current Draw & Power Output Question
The information I read says it is aligned at the factory and other information from HS Signals says that 'alignment' and 'calibration' are the same things. The expectation is that it works right out

Re: JackAl System Preview
Hi Kack & Al I have two questions : 1 - Can we buy only the kit of the card? (I already have a TFT 5 "and a Teensy 3.6). 2 - Do you know a book about Teensy to learn how to use it or have written one?

Re: Bitx40 vs. uBitx
I mainly use 20 and 40. I always go to 20, and then 40 if there is no activity. 80 has lots of activity at night, but I hardly ever hear anything other than rag chews and nets down there.

Re: Current Draw & Power Output Question
Indeed Russ, it may have been just by fluke but mine arrived perfectly aligned (actually almost perfectly, 100-150hz off the actual frequency) so I assumed that in most cases it was delivered

Re: Current Draw & Power Output Question
And right off the bat... I wonder why this is mentioned on the HF Signals website? "The ?BITX comes pre-aligned. You should do this only if you really think it is out of alignment."

Re: Current Draw & Power Output Question
Doing a smoke test does not include setting the BFO! No where on the site does it mention that the kit comes pre-calibrated. The software is written to get the frequency close to being aligned. Due to

Re: Current Draw & Power Output Question
Thanks guys, I had sort of considered that the Bird 43 was probably not showing peak power being that it¡¯s not capable of without the add on kit being done to the meter so that confirms my thoughts.

Re: IF OUT
Ok, interesting that a resistor may suffice. If you hear overload in the uBitx then you need the BCI filter or adding some preselection. If you see the overload in the RTL and you hear a clean signal
