Re: High pitched tone at 14.074 mhz
Hello Chris, Do you mean both crystals on the Raduino proper and on the Nano's board? For comparison I do have birdies (mine is a V3) here and there as I have on my FT-817, albeit not as significant

Re: Antuino manual
Rechargeable AA batteries are nominally around 1.2-1.25v, 6 of them would provide 7.2-7.5vdc. Would it be too low?

Re: Antuino manual
The Antuino draws 0.080ma at 5v. With a linear regulator to 5v, the regulator is dissipating (12v-5v)*0.080 = 0.560 Watts. Much over 12v going in and the LM78L05 will soon overheat and go into thermal

A 12v power supply is recommended. It draws about 80 ma of current when in operation. Most of it goes to light up the display. I didn't have any spare pin on the Arduino to turn the power to the
