Re: Templates for China EF01 Electronic Plastic Shell Project Case for a BITX40
Sarma,
I guess you are 100% correct, my BIX40 has had a wonderful working life attached to the cookie tin chassis for the last 3+ years. Well I ordered the $10 EF01 case and it will be a nice display at our ham expositions with the cookie tin BIx40? next to the case. So far it was a fantastic $50 investment for a 40 meter SSB/CW? rig and the additional $10 will not effect the overall experience .? Since the Bix40 is out of production I wish good luck to the vendor that are trying to sell additions for it. Best Regards. Steve AB2ET/4 |
Re: A minor bug in the ubitx circuit
Anthony VU3JVX It might be more productive if you were to post the schematic and pictures of your scratch-built V5 uBITX.That way the whole group can become involved in helping troubleshoot this custom-built design.? If Farhan were to devote all his time to troubleshooting non-HFSignals builds he probably would not have time for designing and building new and improved versions of the standard HFSignal products.?

Re: A minor bug in the ubitx circuit
Anthony This group, and gmail, does not automatically show the whole topic chain for every response.? If you click on "View Reply on-line" at the bottom of messages you will be able to then click on "see the entire discussion chain" for that topic or thread.? This minimizes the amount of network bandwidth that is used for each response.? Some of the discussion topics go on for weeks or months and involve hundreds of responses.? Minimizing what is sent to just individual responses also decreases confusion that might occur if the whole chain were exposed for responses to really old posts. Arv?

Re: A minor bug in the ubitx circuit
Thanks Jerry for referring to the correct post. I thought we are discussing this for the first time. Any recommended solution about the audio feedback leak. I know these are not related and I have searched the forum and did try all the recommended solution provided. e.g changing the value of R63, R64 but it has not helped. Hence I have connected the Audio system 12V supply with RX power rail. I have also tried all the 3 audio circuit (TA2822, transistor only build & LM386) same result. So I feel it has to be fixed at the mic input section. Let me know if I have missed out something.

Farhan states that this can also be a problem with the v3 TDA2822. Paul suggests replacing R253 with the series combination of a 0.1uF cap and the original R253. Sounds like a good idea to me.? ??/g/BITX20/message/73405 Jerry, KE7ER On Wed, Dec 18, 2019 at 09:50 AM, Anthony Gomes wrote:

Re: ubitx v6, refactored code
Bob, You need a bracket. Check out the latest code. That will fix?the problem. - f On Wed 18 Dec, 2019, 11:42 PM GM4CID, <gm4cid@...> wrote: Findings after a very quick test :- |
Re: Fw: [JackAl] uBitx v6 compatibility?
Jack, I have a V6 w/cabinet on order.? Supposedly it will be here the first couple of weeks in January. I've never tried your JackAl before, so if you want a neophyte to give a review from that viewpoint, I could be your guy. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE

Findings after a very quick test :-
After a little mod to the Setup routine around line 812 the code compiles - ? ? setupBFO();
//? } comment out GM4CID
? guiUpdate(); Now finding - Encoder operation strange PTT ground on A3 does not hive a low on D7 CAT does not want to connect Forgive me if this is finger trouble on my behalf. 73, Bob GM4CID |

Re: FS: Unbuilt uBitx still available
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýJim,As stated in my email, it shipped feb 2019, and an examination of the PCB indicates it is a Ver. 5 uBitx. Let me know if you are interested in it. Thanks, Ken, N2VIP On Dec 18, 2019, at 09:48, Jim WB2LHP in MI <jmarco1955@...> wrote:

Hi Farhan,
With your original code installed in my lash up test bed, and A6 connected to VCC through 4k7?the encoder and ptt inputs didn't work. CAT did change the frequency and set the unit to TX perfectly. I had thought perhaps it was due to finger trouble. Look forward trying the new code in my test bed and await delivery of the specified TFT to explore further. Thank you for all your excellent work on this new version. 73, Bob GM4CID |

Re: ubitx v6, refactored code
Rick, The radios come factory aligned. I am prepping something that will make bfo setting easier. The v6 code does need a bitmapped display to show the buttons. So back porting it to a 16x2 display maybe difficult.
