Re: uBITX V6 BFO tuning page
In a pinch, you can just download a free audio spectrum analyzer onto your phone or tablet. No need for connections, just ¡°audio couple¡± between speaker on uBitx and microphone on phone. As said

Hi Randy,
I do not have a Bitx40.? I have six uBiTx from v4 on.? When I saw this type of issue that could not be traced to the power supply, it was the BFO.? Do you have a way to verify that the

Re: Noise floor problem with Bitx40
Hi Randy;
Can you provide more details about the 12 volt power cell you are using?
Does it by chance include a USB power port, or support other output voltages beside 12 Volts?

Re: Noise floor problem with Bitx40
Have you tried moving the radio to another location?
On rare occasions, noise in the form of intermodulation distortion can be produced by a unique combination of strong RF signals near the

Re: V1 design of sbitx case completed!
I found your design pretty much spot on. Of course there was the usual off by 0.5mm stuff. But that goes with the territory when you are manually recreating a design. The only issues I remembered was

Thank you for the response!

Re: Digital signal processing to improve readability
Gordon, if I had had you as my pre-calc teacher, I might have actually grasped some of the concepts. Applying math to real-world scenarios should be a part of every course, just like science classes.

I only run it off a 12 volt power cell, so I'm not using a power supply. Thanks!

Re: Digital signal processing to improve readability
I tested adding "white noise"? (a specific number added to the first 60 bins, to add equal energy to every bin of the voice audio) this morning and IT WORKS.
Didn't sound exactly like what I expected

Re: hacking the audio system of sbitx DE, V2, V3
Thanks!
In the tx_process, when you have the modulation in the frequency domain, is there a reason not to assign 0.0 to the bins that are above the highest audio component expected?

hacking the audio system of sbitx DE, V2, V3
The audio system uses a WM8731 codec. This samples 96000 times a second and
produces 32 bit samples in stereo (only 24 bits have actual data).
This means that there are 96000x32x2 , approximately

Re: Noise floor problem with Bitx40
The clue I get is that this is a switching power supply noise. Could even be some device
running on the same mains branch.
Connect it to a battery and see ?

The noise level does not change when I unhook the antenna. the noise level is more pronounced on the lower end of the phone portion of the band.
