On the ugly build uBITx I now have the latest CEC firmware installed, and a 4-line display (2004) I can receive and decode FT8 and WSPR via laptop running latest WSJT-x, connected via CAT. Setup : USB

Re: uBITX CW offset woes
When I get a chance, I'll check one of my icom's and see what I do, but I suspect many rigs work exactly this way, so that it becomes easy to be right on frequency of the other station, and also hear

Re: uBITX CW offset woes
well, you might be right, but when you zero beat a heathkit to a 100 kHz marker, and subsequently tune in a CW signal, you will be transmitting on a DIFFERENT frequency from what your dial shows. So I

Re: uBITX CW offset woes
Usually the freq readout on the display IS the transmit frequency, with the offset taking place in the receiver -- the receiver shifts the 700 Hz or so.? ?But here the transmit frequency shifts.?

Re: uBITX CW offset woes
So, when you do CW, you don't zero beat your RECEIVER to the other station, do you? No. You dial your receiver just the right amount off from the other station's zero beat so that either (a) you are

Re: bitx v6 is here
Do I understand from the instructions that the new V6 kit now has a touch screen? Or does it have lots of extra buttons? Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Email: buddy@... Mobile: (814)

Re: Frequency calibration V5
The firmware instructions for calibration for ver 5 appear to be incorrect. I achieved calibration by many iterations of the following: Tune to 10.000 MHz on the dial. (WWV will actually probably be

Re: bitx v6 is here
As I see under the hood it is still v5 engine. I am tempted of doing another homebrewing of V6 version from scratch, I might share the build process step by step via youtube if anybody is interested.

Re: bitx v6 is here
I just can't tell you how happy it makes me to see the uBITX finally moving away from the 16X2 displays. They were way past their use by date. I placed a order for a V6 this morning making my BITX

Re: bitx v6 is here
Very Nice! The New PCB Layout offers some obvious and some not-so-obvious advantages. The integration of the connectors onto the Main PCB greatly speeds and simplifies assembly and hookup for builders

Re: bitx v6 is here
All the cables and connectors of v5 are preserved as it. The only thing you need to do is to swap the 16x2 LCD for a tft display. Unfortunately, we are selling the boxes only as a part of the kit.

From what I'm reading here, unless you don't want to solder there is no reason to upgrade your v5 to v6.? v6 sounds like it is basically v5 with all the connectors soldered onto the board + a
