Hi Mike, Well it sounds like you have a pretty good idea as to what your will be getting into with all of the issues that need to be address with the uBITX out of the box. Last year I got a wild hair

There is no function button on the bitx40 unless you are using Allards software and have added a function button. Dave kc2ipx

Hi Christopher, The function button is the pushbutton in the encoder - the control that is used for tuning and stepping through the menu. 73, Bill KU8H -- bark less - wag more

On the Nano there's a small white button in the middle of its board, which is the reset button. Press that button and the code in flash memory restarts. It's marked RESET BUTTON in the image above.

Re: PSK 31 not decoding
Another option is to use a web SDR receiver (e.g. from http://sdr.hu) - just tune it to a PSK frequency (e.g. 7070 or 14070 USB) and then use that to test your decoder. I use the macOS equivalent to

Pardon my ignorance but where exactly is the function button?? Are you referring to the reset button on the arduino nano itself?? The only button on my bitx40 (that I'm aware of) is the PTT switch.

Re: SHOULD BE REQUIRED MODS
I have to admit that I too am looking forward to the build challenge and indeed that was part of my rational for going the ubitx route. And I have to admit the fact it is qrp is also an attraction.

Sorry to hear of your calamity. If you are unable to fix your ICOM, you might see about getting it fixed professionally. I use a fellow named Scott Malcolm. He is extremely well versed on ICOM as that

Re: SHOULD BE REQUIRED MODS
Hi Mike, I agree with others that you would get to your 100 watt HF radio goal for a lot less money if you shop for a used, working HF rig. Obviously a *new* Icom, Yaesu, Kenwood, Elecraft, etc radio
