Re: Open letter to Afarhan et all

Re: Open letter to Afarhan et all
Back in the day I'm told as it was before my time, if you wanted a radio you had to build it yourself. There are a bunch of us hams that are happy those days are in the past. Today you can lay your

Re: Open letter to Afarhan et all
When googling for sbitx info, I ran into the sbitx group on facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/3846283068801504/ ) and it seems Carl has been able to get his sbitx to boot with some help from

Mine is also packed up, the weather is nice the next two days so I'm going to go do some POTA! I will explore this approach. I have open keys. I looked at the macro language ( based on N1MM's

Re: Main screen layout
Please do not feel obliged to spend any time on this, I am just asking questions about what is already known. I think it is OK to do both, work on the current code and await what may come in the

Re: Main screen layout
Dave, Have you tried the RX key on the screen?? I do not have my sbitx DE set up now, so I can not verify it for you.? I am going from memory when I was playing with my DE. The other alternative

Re: sBitx V2 SN #141 Spurious/Harmonic Measurements

Re: Raspberry Pi in sBITX V2

Re: Open letter to Afarhan et all
Even in your critique of Carl you indicate that "most of the hams (you) know have a basic knowledge of electronics" - I simply point out that "most" is a group with fewer members than "every". There
