uBITx Antenna Pins Connector
Please forgive me, I am new to building and I am ignorant. I am building my uBITx. I see from the previous posts here that it may be normal to have continuity between the pins in the antenna jack but,

Is there a Raduino replacement with supply voltage, FWD & REF readings ?
I tried to search the specs of various Raduino alternatives, but I couldn't find the right one, so ... I'm thinking about building a portable uBITX mostly for SOTA activities and information on

No touch screen mods yet. Maybe now that I know I didn't fry it! Yes, noodling is slang for wandering about or randomly experimenting. I should be more conscious of slang I such an international

Re: T/R Relay sticking!
Albert, The problem you describe is what I had with an off center fed dipole. For me it was rf getting into the nano control lines. I was able to solve with grounding and rf chokes on the antenna coax

Re: T/R Relay sticking!
I have a Rev 5 board running stock 5.1 version software/firmware. I am having a similar issue with the mic PTT. Using a 50 ohm dummy load, radio works as expected. Using an antenna, I have

Hi Gwen It is lucky to survive there is no filter section for 160. I wouldn't zero beat to a broadcast band signal it is too low to be really accurate at higher frequency. Zero beat it on some higher

Re: Good news...I did NOT blow up my uBitX #ubitx-help #ubitx
The BNC socket included with the kit is not machined to tight enough tolerances, the hole to receive the pin is cut too large in some cases, and the center conductor is an open circuit. This is not an

Gwen Nice to cross paths again. Be patient while you figure this rig out. The frequency display represents the missing carrier frequency on ssb. The frequency where transmit happens on cw will be

As I mentioned in a previous email, there are issues with the documentation on hfsignals.com They do check the boards before shipping, but it is still possible to have trouble bringing them up. Most

Re: BITX40
Thank you Jerry. I was very concerned about frying the Raduino because the board I received is quite different from the one on the site diagram. As I said, without the forum I would not have got that

I thought I blew out the PA 12v trace trying to tune it on 160m, but I guess I didn't. I think the 12v power connection was slightly intermittent on the board, possibly from a slightly loose

That video is dated Dec of 2016, right when they started shipping with the Raduino (and thus with L4 not installed). And at the very start of the video, Farhan states that the unit he is debugging has
