Re: #uBITX Firmware KD8CEC - IF-Shift etc.
#ubitx
Jerry. I programmed something similar to what you said.?I just added another setting instead of a constant(SECOND_OSC_USB). The code is shown below. ? ? if (isUSB){ ? ? ? si5351bx_setfreq(2, SECOND_OSC_USB - usbCarrier + f? + (isIFShift ? ifShiftValue : 0)); ? ? ? si5351bx_setfreq(1, SECOND_OSC_USB); ? ? } ? ? else{ ? ? ? si5351bx_setfreq(2, SECOND_OSC_LSB + usbCarrier + f + (isIFShift ? ifShiftValue : 0)); ? ? ? si5351bx_setfreq(1, SECOND_OSC_LSB); ? ? } Also, I would like to ask you an opinion, but now I am using the hotspot in the place where the internet is not available, so I can not use it long.? I temporarily shifted the usbCarrier (BFO Setting value) when IF-Shift was applied. I thought IF-Shift was a temporary function that only used for a while, so I could not satisfy both LSB and USB. The IF-Shift value can be set to + or -, so can set the desired value according to the using mode.

The audio frequencies through the?crystal filter should be strictly a matter of where the BFO is relative to? the crystal filter passband.? I can't explain why USB audio would be different than LSB audio. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "IF Shift function". Can you give an example?

As a general rule, one of the terminals on an electret mic is attached to the metal case while the other is insulated from the case. ?The terminal attached to the case is ground. ?The other, insulated, terminal is signal.

Carlos. Wow great! It is very nice graph. My plan is to climb mountains with only uBITX. And it sends WSPR by each band and communicates with built-in memory keyer. I will Search your callsign in Could you test the new version next week? Ian KD8CEC 2018-03-10 5:25 GMT+09:00 Carlos E. Wenzel <Ik2yra@...>:

Philip. You are right.?I used the trick to reduce the program size, which did not work as I thought. Using a function called SetTxFiler will solve this problem easily. After the weekend, I will update uBITX Beta version next week. And I was able to check your radio signal at . Thanks for testing.

Re: uBITX Mic Wireup
Dex You are right on.? Since the electret microphone uses a microphone voltage resistor inside the uBITX or BITX-40 (or any older BITX with electret microphone) it is possible to sense voltage drop across this resistor (with a MOSFET...?) and key the transceiver when the microphone circuit is closed.? This is for those who are wondering how to connect a 2-wire electret microphone with built-in PTT switch.? This is particularly useful for those cheap combination ear-buds and electret microphone that we see in the Dollar Stores.?

Enough resistance in the feed resistor of the rig should take the electret voltage down to mid-supply - detect that. |
Re: #uBITX Firmware KD8CEC - IF-Shift etc.

Gerald Thanks for feedback. Errors that apply IF-Shift on TX will be corrected soon and will be included in the next version. If you test a bit more about IF Shift, we can improve it. Ian KD8CEC 2018-03-11 2:15 GMT+09:00 ge_clipboard <clipboard@...>:

The IF Shift function should only be applied during RX, but it sounds like it is being applied during TX in error in KD8CEC's sketch.? Probably a bug. However, the op shouldn't be using the IF Shift permanently, he may not have used the BFO calibration function to fix the shift for LSB & USB for the correct passband.

ubitx mount question regarding lcd display and bezel
While I'm waiting for my blown U1 replacement parts, I'm finishing up on my ubitx case.? I'm not sure the best way to mount the LCD display to the case.? I've read a number of posts but did not find the exact answer I'm looking for.? Using the metal standoffs which come with the kit does not quite fit with a nice Digikey bezel mentioned in other posts.? The bezel looks really good, but if I use the mounting hardware, the screws will overlap the bezel corners and show.? I have some plastic standoffs which I could countersink, but the color still does not exactly match my Jaemco case.? I've thought of using a metal glue for the standoffs but I'm not crazy about that idea.? I've seen posts where others used larger bezels or custom bezels.? But I'm wondering what others have done when using the Digikey bezel.? Enclosed is a picture.? Any thoughts?
Thanks! Tom AB7WT |

Where we seem to disagree is that I am convinced this code will always prints a value of "4" regardless of whether the machine is big or little endian: ? long data32;? ? int? data8;
? data32 = 0x04030201;
? data8 = data32>>24;
? printf("%d \n", data8);
From this, we can create the endian agnostic code at the top of post 44018.?? Arv is correct, this is not something most of you need to worry about. I'm totally done here. Unless you want to talk about Gulliver's Travels. Jerry
