Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
Nice!! Got some code to share? I especially like the large display. Not that it's 20x4 but that you chose a _large_ 20x4. None of us is getting any younger. To be able to see the radio without putting

Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
I was going to suggest a Teensy. They come in the same footprint as the Nano and run at around 75MHz or so. Plenty of memory and LOTS of IO brought out to pads under board.

Re: 80 M and Shortwave receive to BITX40v3 (Non digital vfo )
Sorry guys. My friend has been on the road so he hasn't been able to plot BPF's. Tomorrow we are getting together for a LTspice tute and plot BPF for 80 to 10. 73 Ken

Re: Future Bitx40 Version
Jerry Thanks for the suggestion of headers. Actually I did think of it but I didn't have any on hand at the time. I have removed all BPF components from the board. I made up an off board BPF for 40

Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
if you want to push into dsp, it is best to directly get to teensy. we chose the 16x2 because it was the most easily, universally available display. i expect a number of people to scracth build this

Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
As Jerry and Jack said, this is not exactly a cakewalk. Yes,it is a trivial matter to drive the display; there is basically one library to handle many different displays. This is true no matter what

Creating wiring harnesses with DuPont ends

Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
I don't see how switching the display from 16x2 to 20x4 isn't trivial.? If using the normal hd44780 interface they are wired the same (and if you're ordering a BITX you should be able to handle the

Alternative to using EEPROM for NV storage
I ran across this and thought other Arduino players may find it useful. The Arduinos have EEPROM memory for non-volatile storage, but it's slow to write to and can actually wear out if written to over

Re: Why 16x2 LCD instead of 20x4?
I think you're going to find out that it's not the flash memory (e.g., ~30K) that the real limiting factor. It's the amount of SRAM that's the real bottleneck. SRAM is used to hold all of the
