Re: Compiling Ubidx_5 errors
Jack Purdum
That looks like an asterisk in from of the #include. Check that first as I think the rest of them result from being out of sync from the asterisk. Jack, W8TEE

If you are unable to upload ANY code to the processor - it is likely a problem with the serial port and/or driver on your computer. ?This issue is always a black eye with new setups. ?Some Arduino boards use FTDI devices and others use CHD devices. ?It seems that most of the Chinese clones are using CHD340/341 devices. ?

JackAl Display and Voltage Spikes
Jack Purdum
All: Two JackAl owners have reported that a voltage spike destroyed their RA8875 display. Al has looked into this and found that there is a very narrow voltage window on the display. Buydisplay confirms that 4V on the 3.3V line can ruin the display. From what we can determine, voltage spikes were the culprit in both cases.? What we're doing is creating a very small PCB that will clamp the supply voltage to the display. Parts for the board will cost less than $2. We will send one of these PCB boards to JackAl owners at no charge with a request and a SASE. We will provide further details when the boards come in and announce their availability here. We are also expanding the documentation and hope to have a new assembly manual by week's end. Again, we will announce it here. Jack, W8TEE Al, AC8GY ? |
Re: Mic distortion
I was just pointing out to SAM that RF getting back into the mic circuit will cause distortion, and that the uBitx seems to be very susceptible to that issue? Since the questions started with using a linear with the uBitx, I thought that RF feedback could be an issue.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pat Anderson ? Yes, I did select ATmega328p (old bootloader). I have tried both ATmega328p and ATmega328p (old bootloader). Same result. ? See the attached screenshot, my chronos@localhost window, which displays system messages is more specific that the IDE's cryptic message "Problem uploading to board." The message that is logged is "programmer not responding." It tries 10 times and then gives up. ? A little more info on my system, which I don't THINK is causing the problem. I am running Ubuntu under Crouton on a Chromebook. I run CHIRP using /dev/ttyUSB0 to program my VHF/UHF HTs, and it works fine. It runs all other Linux software I have tried just fine. But IF my Chromebook system might be the problem, or part of it, I will start over with the IDE on an old Windows 7 laptop when I get back to Washington State (I have been in Arizona for the last four months). Frankly, though, over the years I have had a lot more problems with com ports on Windows than with /dev/tty under Linux. ?

Re: upgrading a V1 UbitX
Michael Walker
Thanks Curt You are right, I have a v3 board and it is 100% functional.? I run it through a band pass filters already, so emissions are not a concern for me.? It is already handled. I will look at the rest, but I do tend to follow the masses on choices as there is strength in numbers.

Now these two lines in the system output window look suspicious, MAY be the source of the problem. User configuration file is "/home/pat/.avrduderc" User configuration file does not exist or is not a regular file, skipping On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 11:07 AM Pat Anderson via Groups.Io <anderson5420=[email protected]> wrote:

Re: upgrading a V1 UbitX
Mike
the oldest production version is known as v3.? it uses an IC audio amp, versus a 2-transistor audio amp in v4.? likely you have one of these.? Do research which firmware you will need for your chose display.? AGC - if you want a complete board, look down one page and you will see references to one for sale.? its a design from ND6T.? I confess I am using the VK3YE design that requires building it yourself.? Either of these should work nicely for you.? Or if you want to go high end -- please examine the Jackal before starting your mods.? Perhaps more important - make sure your ubitx is still working, and do something to correct the spurious.? A daughter board hosting 3 relays cured my harmonics, but I am still working the mixer related spurious (that impact SSB path only).? Curt |
Got the boards in yesterday and prototype tested.? Partial kits available for these from the Triumvirate Skonk Works (TSW) through the website.?
There are two types of switch adapters available, one that just provides convenient plug in switching of voltages to allow you to plug in your DC input to the board and also plug the switch terminals and output to the rig into the board.? That way you can remove connections without having to unsolder wires and re-solder them later. The second one provides the switching functions as well, but adds an onboard voltage regulator capability so you can have an auxiliary voltage output that's also turned on/off with the plug in switch connection.? We have an option to supply this one in partial kit form without the TO-220 three terminal regulator as any regulator from 3.3V to around 10 volts can be used on the board providing it fits the same IN-GND-OUT footprint of a standard 7805 or if you like, for a small increase in price a 7805, heat sink and appropriate bypass capacitors can be included.? We still leave out the series polarity protection diode as this is optional and most people already have reverse polarity protection set up on their voltage inputs.? Pricing and ordering info is on the TSW website for anyone interested. Attached is the construction manual for both kits in PDF format. Jim Sheldon, W0EB TSW Project Coordinator |

Yes, I did select ATmega328p (old bootloader). I have tried both ATmega328p and ATmega328p (old bootloader). Same result. See the attached screenshot, my chronos@localhost window, which displays system messages is more specific that the IDE's cryptic message "Problem uploading to board." The message that is logged is "programmer not responding." It tries 10 times and then gives up. A little more info on my system, which I don't THINK is causing the problem. I am running Ubuntu under Crouton on a Chromebook. I run CHIRP using /dev/ttyUSB0 to program my VHF/UHF HTs, and it works fine. It runs all other Linux software I have tried just fine. But IF my Chromebook system might be the problem, or part of it, I will start over with the IDE on an old Windows 7 laptop when I get back to Washington State (I have been in Arizona for the last four months). Frankly, though, over the years I have had a lot more problems with com ports on Windows than with /dev/tty under Linux. I do want to express my immense appreciation for the folks who have tried to help me solve this problem!

Template Generator for uBitx Cabinets?
Came across a site recently that has calculators to generate cutting templates for paper structures of various shapes.
Perhaps the idea can be adapted to generate uBitx cabinet construction templates from metal, thin plastic, cardboard, etc. ? (for example, see "Trapezoid") |
Re: Mic distortion
Btw which amplifier are you using as that might add distortion too. Il 26/mar/2019 18:40, "iz oos" <and2oosiz2@...> ha scritto:

Re: Mic distortion
I use a balanced antenna and I don't have that issue. If your antenna is unbalanced, you may consider the MFJ-815 line isolator. Or a coax choke around a ferrite core with a material like 43, NiZn permeability around 800.

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? |
Re: Mic distortion
I have not used a linear with my uBitx, however the OCFD that I have from MFJ has a lot of RF on the shield.? This got back into the mic, and caused a significant amount of distortion.? You may have the same issue, as it seems that the uBitx audio is susceptible to RF.? I would suggest shielding and ferites on the mic cable.? Could also try a snap on ferite over the coax between the uBitx and linear.
Just suggestions, again, I do not have any experience using a linear to go on. 73 Evan AC9TU |
Board Map/Layout, Test Points? (V5)
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! --Ron K0EIA |
