3861 just switched to "packed, ready to go" status this morning
Re: Order # 3869 April 2

 

Quick update, mine actually shipped a few hours ago. Apparently the pace has sped up quite a bit, or there was a bottleneck of some sort.

There were some on this forum that stated some of the messages concerning tariff delays could have been scams. Other instances turned out to be legitimate as shippers were bogged down by trying to deal with higher value cargo and the unknowns concerning tariffs. I realize this may not help. Not even sure why I chimed in. But I encourage you to go about your day. I'm sure that the day will have enough to deal with without possibly stressing over this matter.

Not wanting to hijack the thread but this seems to be a good forum to ask. Has anybody so far recently had to deal with any of the tariff nonsense shipping to the United States???

Re: Displaying/setting the network connection in SET screen on zBitx

 

For the outdoor work, connecting the external HDMI display is not a viable solution.
My zBitx connects to my smartphone working as a mobile hotspot.
The problem is that I don't know what IP it is assigned.
I have verified with sBitx (which displays the assigned IP after it connects) that I can connect from my smartphone to the WiFi client.
So the only lacking point is: what is the IP obtained by zBitx via DHCP.
My smartphone lists the devices connected to its mobile hotspot, but does not report their IPs.
?
That's the whole story.

Wojtek SP5DAA

PS. I have a workaround - I use a mobile LTE modem as a WiFi hotspot and connect both smartphone and zBitx to it.
The only problem is, that such a solution is unnecessarily complex.

#3840 has been shipped this week to me .

Look forward to receiving it by the weekend ( DHL) so I can have a good operating session with it.

Re: New zBitx - New User - CW operation

 

I spent some time with my new zBitx today. Sending CW with a paddle is indeed difficult. I can just barely make iambic A work at less than about 22wpm.?
zBitx feature request - jump to frequency

 

Trying out my new zBitx, one missing feature that would really be useful would be to tap on a signal on the waterfall and the VFO would jump to that frequency.?
zBitx IF setting

 

Finally trying out my zBitx received last week. It seemed deaf at first. I am finding that I need to run my IF setting to around 75 on 20m to hear or see any signals.
What are typical IF settings for other users?

Re: Order # 3869 April 2

 

3859 here, earlier today I extrapolated from three shipped examples posted prior, and came up with a date towards the very end of May (forget the exact day and I'm on a phone). Patience :)

Re: zBITX CW Mode - Proof of Concept

 

NOTE : It has been discovered that some of the the zBITX units were shipped with sBitx version 3.021 and more recent units have been shipped with sBitx version 3.052.? ? I have the 3.021 version, so my fix for using CW is based on that older version.?
?
Version 3.052 added an additional parameter to a function that I am calling from my new code..? That function is in another file.? So, the sbitx_gtk.c file that I provided will only compile/build with units having sBitx version 3.021
?
I am going to obtain sBitx version 3.052 and see if I can modify my sbitx_gtk.c file to get it to work in version 3.052..
?
So, if you have sBitx version 3,052 in your zBITX, stay tuned

Re: zBITX CW Mode - Proof of Concept

 

Hi Miguel,
?
My zBITX came with version 3.021 of sbitx.? I see from your build errors that you have version 3.052.? ?So it looks like HF Signals has changed what is being shipped in the zBITX, and now modem_poll() is looking for another parameter.? ?Plus something seems to have changed relating a time sysnc,
?
Assuming that has the all of the files for the version 3.052 that you have, I can pull that down to my zBITX and see what I can do to create a version of my sbitx_gtk.c file that will work with sbitx version3,052? ?
?
I do not recall seeing any notice that said that v3.052 was available - maybe I missed it.
?
Stay tuned.?
?
