Re: Can SBITX V3 prevent "DUPLICATE" callsigns?

Many thanks....Sam, as far as I know the changes were made only in the /sbitx/web folder. That's why it's enough to download and copy only the web folder into the sbitx folder. So that you don't forget what you did later, do it like this: rename the original web folder to web.old copy the web folder downloaded from git, then integrate it into the app using the terminal: cd sbitx ./build sbitx ./sbitx If someone later develops sbitx, don't forget which one you use. Also, ./update will only work with the original, so the solution is to rename the sbitx folder used so far to sbitx_origin and download the updated version by cloning. With this method, you keep your previous activity and hardware files from _origin, they must be copied to the new one. Of course, all your previous changes will be lost, unless you keep a log of what you did when and with what. ?So life is not easy. ? -- Gyula HA3HZ |

Re: Can SBITX V3 prevent "DUPLICATE" callsigns?
I believe that when deployed as a SOTA or POTA station, you should use the /p or /number extension for the call sign. But sBitx can't do that, so I have to confirm for myself that you are only using the call sign and no extension for the call sign. Am I correct?
With us, the call sign is only valid for the requested location. If you go to settle in a park, you should use /p or / number. What is the truth? -- Gyula HA3HZ |

Re: BITX 13 Colony Challenge
I also managed to connect with some stations yesterday.
First, TM13COL at 7MHz, then K2I, K2B, K2A and K2K in sequence at 14 MHz. Unfortunately, I didn't see any more. How long does this activity last? All this with the sBitx digital 20 Watt and the Loop antenna with vertical feeding installed at an angle. Unfortunately, it is difficult to connect with South American stations because they only respond to strong stations. I also tried 3 times with a station in Peru: it gave a report, but it did not acknowledge mine. In the end, propagation helped make the QSO complete. (RSTs -06, RTSr -10). 142/128 dxcc/cfm - so you have to fight for another dxcc ;-) -- Gyula HA3HZ |

Re: pi4 boot from usb?
Hi Don, yes you can boot from an external USB drive.? You need to change the boot order in the "raspi-config" terminal program, and then just leave the internal Micro SD card in place. Many of us boot from an external USB Stick. It makes changing or updating the OS very easy.

Re: Can SBITX V3 prevent "DUPLICATE" callsigns?
A warning would be nice, but I would be wary of anything that prevents starting a QSO with a duplicate call sign. As a POTA/SOTA hunter I have many repeated contacts with that same activators, sometimes even in the same day when they move to a new park.

Re: I need help reviving my sBITX V3
Curious , how long was the reverse voltage applied to the sbitx??
5 Second at the most.? I kind of gave up on it. I feel frustrated and it seem like everytime I replace a component on it, something else needs to be replaced. I don't think that it can be fixed. I still stand behind what I said when I said the sBITX was the best radio that I have ever used. I hate not having it still. I made the mistake of selling my other radios to pay for the sBITX so now I can't even get on HF anymore. It is my fault. I put all of my eggs in one basket and it bit me. I'm paying for my mistake. I'm saving up to get another one.?? Thanks for everyone's help.? -- '72 Aaron? |
