Re: Receiver Dead
I too had intermittent receive. I used the very non-technical "tap" method. One of the tiny toroids had a problem either in the winding or the soldered connections. I tapped/wiggled it so that it

Re: W8TEE pending software release and port(?) #w8tee
Put a switch on an I/O pin and use INPUT_PULLUP with pinMode(). When a NO pushbutton is pushed, the line is pulled LOW, which changes its state. Jack, W8TEE To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, October

Re: BITX QSO Night, Sunday, October 1, 7pm Local Time, 7277 kHz in North America, 7177 kHz elsewhere
I had to yell to get through the noise but just managed to work W1LY with a very minimal exchange.

Re: W8TEE pending software release and port(?) #w8tee
Yes that is what they're probably trying to say. But the wording is very confusing to programmers without an EE background. Many don't understand the real purpose of pull up resistors. 73 Allard

Re: Cw - another quirk
Yes, I suspected that might be the case. I think I'll put bypass capacitors on both the keying lines and the function switch and spot switch. It probably doesn't help that I am using a plastic

Re: W8TEE pending software release and port(?) #w8tee
Wait a minnit. I think I understand what they're so horribly trying to say. When input pullup is NOT used, a floating connection is low (or presumably low). So in order to get it to do something your

Ah, very nice. And 6 more bytes! ? They all count! Regarding pullups, this statement isn't exactly correct, but I think I understand where they are coming from: " This effectively inverts the

Re: dc power connection bitx40 confusion

Re: Receiver Dead
By the way if the volume control is set to the minimum end you will not get anything.? Also if you inject your 0db signal it will be shorted out at minimum setting. Try setting about half way when

Re: W8TEE pending software release and port(?) #w8tee
This is absolutely INCORRECT. pinMode(xx, INPUT) and pinMode(xx, INPUT_PULLUP) only enable/disable the internal pull up resistors. They DON'T invert the behaviour of the input! 73 Allard PE1NWL

Re: PTT Sense Issues
Or even better: //configure the PTT SENSE to use the internal pull-up pinMode(PTT_SENSE, INPUT_PULLUP); // check if PTT sense line is installed PTTsense_installed = !digitalRead(PTT_SENSE);

Re: Receiver Dead
Unplug the vol control from the board and see if touching the pin that would connect to the wiper gives you noise. That isolates the preamp from the circuit. If you get the noise you used to get, look

Re: PTT Sense Issues
Jerry, now I think of it- I have a much better idea: at startup, initially enable the pullup at A0 and check if the PTTsense is installed. Then disable the pullup, like so: //configure the PTT SENSE

Re: dc power connection bitx40 confusion
No schematic Karl, but it's quite simple. A regulated 12 V supply for the BitX and prior to the regulator is the feed to the PA. Because of how I have it set up, when I turn it off I turn off power to
