Re: W8TEE VFO Board
Jack do you still have Boards available? El El mar, 1 de ago. de 2017 a las 09:41, Ben Bangerter, K0IKR via Groups.Io <bwbangerter=[email protected]> escribi¨®: I want to order one of Jack Purdum's vfo/display mother boards.? I know it costs $7.50 and can be ordered through PayPal, but I cannot find the PayPal address.? I am sure it has been posted, possibly many times, but I just can't find it! ? |

I've looked at the code and see nothing that would cause that kind of behavior. I'll try it here tomorrow myself and see if it's consistent.

Re: New bitx40 build.
Worked late today, so very little progress. Still drilling, filing, and sawing. It does look a "bit" more like a radio, but only checking for fit at this point, so all will need be removed. Serial 719 is fits pretty good in the box. I turned it around about a 1/2 dozen times trying to figure out which side would be best toward the front, and it finally stopped with the tuning leads forward. I hope this is best. The tuning knob, and 10 turn pot is fitting well. The display...well, just a little too late in the day and too tired to start cutting the hole for that.?
