Board Map/Layout, Test Points? (V5)

[email protected]
 

New Question:? I have the high res PDF schematic, and I have been searching around to see if I can find a high resolution board layout or graphic.? Is this out on the web somewhere??

The answer may be "no."? I'm coming into this new uBitx world from working on old Kenwoods, where I had the service manual with schematic, board graphic, and level diagrams.? Of course I don't really expect these to exist for a hundred dollar kit radio, but it never hurts to ask before I put on the magnifying glasses and start tracing.??

Thanks!

Bill,
I think you are right, I just re-sized the screens using the components that were used on the 3.2" screens so I was not worried that they did not fit.

Mic distortion

 

Hi everyone, any ideas on cleaning up the mic distortion when using a linear? I tried turning rv1 down to a few watts out on 40 but still distorting. I really don't want to affect the cw power. I thought about bring rv1 to the front panel...but, thinking against it now. Ideas?

In your IDE version, do you have the option to select Tools > Processor > ATmega328P (Old Bootloader)?

Programmer ARmega328P (old bootloader) is what I meant to type. I have tried both but is is currently on (old bootloader).

Pat,
in your IDE, under "tools", what Board, Processor and Programmer did you select?

"Board" should be "Nano"
"Processor" should be "ATmega328P (old bootloader)"
"Programmer" should be "AVRISP mkII"

Pat,
in your IDE, under "tools", what Board, Processor and Programmer did you select?

"Board" should be "Nano"
"Processor" should be "ATmega328P (old bootloader)"
"Programmer" should be "AVRISP mkII"

Re: 5 inch Bezel for Nextion display.

 

Once I have the screen files completed then I will share them? here.
As I said, I want to re-scale the spectrum display but I am at a loss to find out where it is in the software that I need to modify.
I really need to ask Ian(KD8CEC) for some guidance but I think he is a busy guy and I don't want to take up his time.

Joe, I have my own printer so I have never used any agency but I know there are plenty around.

Second Nano @ i2c for spectrum, meters, CW-decode, etc

 

I've followed what I've found so far regarding installing a second Arduino Nano to a uBitx, flashing that with i2c firmware, and getting it to band-scan and provide S-meter operation.? There are three items for which I've not found information and hope someone here can add to the experience.

1. I followed the basic option of keeping the TFT screen wired to the original Raduino Nano while placing a second Nano powered in parallel and the i2c connections paralleled/wired together.? I notice that there is a "stand-alone" option for hooking up the TFT screen between both Nanos in a loop fashion, presumably (I'm asking if this is so...) in order to play with these analysers and stuff without it affecting the radio frequency settings as it can now,?? So: Is that in fact what the "stand-alone" feature is?? I will try it, of course, though the way other people get the most out of the experience interests me.

2. I don't see Morse decode operations going; maybe the stand-alone has to be wired for that feature to work?? How do we make CW decode work on this screen and firmware, for educational value & show-and-tell purposes?? Well, I might actually use it myself a little, but mainly it's a feature it's supposed to do and it isn't doing it.

3. Somewhere along the searches and readings, I saw a spectrum display in the lower left where it's normally occupied with a menu square, the pressing of which takes one to a page containing the several operational menus. That would be interesting to see while operating normally and I suspect this is just another regular feature of either the original CEC firmware that I'm missing, or a feature of the i2c/second Nano paradigm that's not yet unlocked or discovered here.

upgrading a V1 UbitX

Michael Walker
 

Hi All

I have one of the older UbitX's (v1? or so).??

I want to start playing with a new display, so I was going to order one of the Nextion's, likely the 3.2" one.??

Is that the way most people are going?

Also, what is the current AGC recommendation?

(I know, this is a general type of message and there will be a hundred replies or so.

Thanks, Mike va3mw

Hi John

I am wondering ware you found the 3.2 Nextion file I tried one from UBIT_nextion_GUI-V3 it has tft files for 2.4 to 9.0 but when I loaded the 3.2

it did not fill the screen, left about 1/2 inch blank on the right side and all the functions did not work.

Thanks Bill K9JUI

I couldn't find any files for the 5", as the ones I did find are just 3.2 screens placed in a 5" window.
I have converted the 3.2" files for 5" display (well work in progress) I still have the Spectrum display to re-scale when I can work out how to do it.
I have spent quite a few days on it so far but its getting there.

Thanks for sharing. looks immaculate/
Where are the latest Nextion tft files for the 5inch. Are they on Ian's site now.
Thanks

Re: Help Me Interpret this Spectrum?

[email protected]
 

Mark and Tom, I think you have steered me to the answer for the dBm question, the AD2 physically just has two analog inputs, they can be scope ch1/ch2, or SA, or whatever but they are designed as scope inputs.? My signal sample comes from a 47dB tap on my dummy load (home brew from parts which is why the odd number of dB).? Assuming my decibel math is right -- which is a stretch -- uBitx is putting out nominally 7w (antenna SWR meter says) == 19V @50Ohm == 47dB down is 0.080V, 80mV.? I see this on my tek 2246 scope, plus/minus calibration (it goes without saying none of this equipment is calibrated!).? I put this into the AD2 to look at spectrum as above.? I was checking the AD2 manual to make sure I wasn't blowing it up, which it said it was ok, and that now makes sense since these are designed as scope inputs.? I have a kit step attenuator, which let me put another 60dB in front of the AD2 (again assuming decibel math correct, that should be in the vicinity of 50uV).? It didn't look like it made any difference, which I think makes sense now.?

Whew, this uBitx assembly is really living up to expectations for making me learn (!).? According to the manual it will do cursors, I have to go find this feature.
