Re: Mic doesn't work in bitx40
#bitx40
1.4v is the base bias for the transistor. It is developed through resistors R61 and R62. If you have 12v at the TX point then the voltage at the base of the transistor will be (R61/(R61+R62+R66) times

Re: Raduino CAD Files
I had a look at the links and there doesn't seem to be any CAD files there. I guess I'll have to break out the caliper and measure the stock board.

Thanks everyone for the help! Jerry, yes, I've been busy behind the scenes doing a lot of things with the control system. I now have the entire app running on an STM32F103 "Blue Pill" board, which is

Re: Low Power Output for Hendricks BitX20A - Watt meters and Scope readings do not agree....
#bitx20
The check would be you must be putting st least 2A into (24W to the finals, ~50% efficiency) the finals to be in the 10-12W region. I don't ever believe scope readings as accurate. For power out I use

Re: rough draft of how to connect BITX to PC for digital modes wiki
I found that there was too much attenuation in the ezdigi board so I use just the isolation transmformers and bipassed the rest. Mounted the board into the ubitx case and hardwired the ubitx side to a

Correction, 10x does not work, 1x does. 10x would read double if that 9meg resistor inside the probe was more like 4meg. And that could easily be measured with an ohmmeter from probe tip to bnc center

Very weird, your math looks right to me. Could be a bad scope probe, have you tried more than one probe? Could be a bunch of bad scope probes. You have 4 measurements saying around 5 Watts and one

Yup, I have no idea why they come mounted sticking out the side. If you wish, once flipped you can keep that LM7805 cool by soldering the tab to the Raduino ground plane, though somebody once pointed
