Re: V6 (calibration revisited)
Hi Evan,
I appreciate the suggestion. That's the first process I tried to follow first.? It looks like the increment jumps by a value of 1750 for each "click" of the dial.? I've scanned the range of

sBitx PCB only - laser cut case
Good morning,
I¡¯ve just ordered an sBitx v2 board ( without case, rPi4 and screen ) as I was hoping to design a case with space for internal batteries and/or manual ATU. As the design is open, I

Re: sBitx DE finals and heat sink temperature plots
*Excellent work, Jack.? ?Thank you for doing this.*
The IRFZ24N datasheet from Infineon indicates a thermal resistance from junction to case of 3.3 degrees C/watt? This is a MAXIMUM value; perhaps

sBitx DE finals and heat sink temperature plots
This is a plot of the sBitx IRFZ24N PA finals and heat sink at about 30 watts to a dummy load, continuous CW for about 500 seconds. The key was down for 300 seconds, after which it was unseated and on

Re: SBitx V2 things I would like to see
To all, times as a hint. If you want to order a sbitx v2, you might want to read the technical description of the sbitx v1. There is a lot of duper explained there. For example the 25khz limit. I'm

Aaron,
If you can not calibrate the touch screen, there is a hardware issue with the screen or the connection to the Nano.? Remove and visually inspect all the Nano pins and the traces to the screen

there are commands to turn off all the relays and then turn one of them
back on again.
This function is apparently being

Also - with your rebuild of the sbitx application - did you remember to set a lower value of cwdelay to suit your desired breakin behavior?
