Re: uBitx v.4 build information
ALL I have uBITX v4 and use it only for FT8 in 40m, but the IRF510 outputs are burned, I am changing them, how do I check if the bias and power settings are correct? a) I check the tension in the GATE

Re: uBitx V5 can't make a contact on ft8
Russ, if you have rig based CAT controlling the PPT and freq change function, and it appears you do, then you are good to go. Using a cheap external USB sound card dongle may be better...but...I have

Re: uBitx V5 can't make a contact on ft8
Thanks for the replies! It sounds like my first thing to do is to get it up higher. My best option will be from the top of my roof. Does anyone have success with putting this an antenna right on or

Receive Noise with USB #cat
Hi Group I have an Ubitx V.5 working well. One problem I found is that when I connect an USB cable to my Ubitx from the computer for CAT control, my receive level noise increases substantially. I have

Re: Calibration needed ? #calibration #v6
Belthur, Reading between the lines of your post I will assume that you are operating SSB below 10 MHz, lower sideband (LSB), on a v6 uBiTx. The issue that is reported to you is that your output signal

Re: BITX 14MHz Build #bitx20
Hi Aaron, I not used MeSquares, but have done quite a bit of "dead bug" construction (which is just placing parts - upside down or not - over an unetched PCB).? Basically I just follow the schematic

Re: Heatsink question #v6
Tom -- many uBITXers have faced the same issue...digital modes...long duty cycle...heat... My approach was to hacksaw larger heatsinks from an old Pentium computer motherboard's CPU.? They have a lot

Re: BITX 14MHz Build #bitx20
W2AEW (Alan Wolke) has a great video on the layout of Manhattan style PCB building. This one illustrates the island method, but the techniques can be used for Manhattan.

Re: Find an older style Raduino #raduino
Jim, any chance you could share the PCB file with the group? At least that would be a starting point for those who would like the older Raduino? -- Jason Pirok W4UNX

Re: BITX 14MHz Build #bitx20
If you are not using a Bitx pcb, then your question is questionable. Build instructions are for using a bitx pcb. For one-off builds using manattan or ugly method you just need to decide your own

Re: uBitx V5 can't make a contact on ft8
I'm still waiting for an antenna adapter for my V6 but am interested in setting it up for FT8.? So exactly how did you disconnect the PTT connection on the dongle? I'm not sure how the dpdt switch is

Re: Heatsink question #v6
I might mention that if you have some old junk PC power supplies, you can salvage these isolation kits from them.? These supplies have several transistors isolated from their heatsinks.? At 3 bucks

Your best bet is if Jim W0EB (I believe) has any left. I purchased one he had left over, but not sure if he has another. I found something that looks like another original Raduino clone on Ebay, but I
