Re: Kicad files
Yes, It is an inconvenient that the PCB layout is proprietary. However, there is no obstruction to alternative layouts. I would really like to see a similarly placed, larger layout with through hole

Ah yes, the 78xx series of linear voltage regulators.? If you consider the input/output voltage differential, there's quite a bit of power to sink (heat). Some have "staged" with additional voltage

Re: An English site of a French HAM, with interesting information about Ubitx.
Gerard, He is using a different Nextion screen program.? The Nano program is still 1.2.? You will need to find out from F5NVP the .tft file that he used to program the Nextion display. 73 Evan AC9TU

Your reported symptoms seem likely to be USB related, not anything Raduino per se. I've had issues with the USB connector on the Nano clone in my V3. How did you have the Raduino's Nano USB attached

Re: Segmentation Fault
I've seen issues with the AVR compiler before. I've also used newer versions of the arduino IDE with VSCode. I don't think I've seen that lint warning, though. I suspect the tool is confusing itself

Before you give it a go, take a look at both the power supply and/or possibly getting RF into the raduino. It works in SSB, right? Lighter duty. Vince. -- K8ZW http://www.metalworkingfun.com
