interference from SW broadcasters above 7200
Hi all, I've just assembled my new BITX40. I'm receiving a lot of strong AM carriers in the European ham section (7000-7200), that are actually from broadcast stations in the 7200-7450 section (41m

AGC working ...
Made two ugly AGC circuits for my BITX40s. ?Now audio in each is very smooth and even. Very worthwhile when using phones. ?See photos. Cheers - Noel

lcd 3.5 display help sought
I have been following PD8W (Willem) progress on his build out of a lcd display/si5351. His code and hardware are listed at PD8W.com. After some hard work I have the display working - and looks like

Re: Using STM32 board with Arduino IDE
I think DuWayne will agree that there's only so much you can do in a library to speed things up. Some libraries use floating point math and, without a math coprocessor to help things along, it is

Re: Using STM32 board with Arduino IDE
DuWayne, Does the graphics library speed up the graphics by a significant amount? ?? It certainly looks interesting. I followed your journey with the SNAjr with interest.? I was doing something

Re: Using STM32 board with Arduino IDE
I have been playing with a couple of different 32 bit alternatives to the 8 bit Arduino Nano that I had been using in most of my projects. I had tried several of the Teensy models both the LC and the

I thought the BITX40 PC board stand-offs would be suitable earthing points. But there is no continuity between them and the battery or psu ground.? Even the DDS stand-offs are not connected to

The hour is to debug an amp. ?Getting all that going on the Raduino and sorting out complete test procedures for the Bitx40 would take a month or two. ?Designing it is not trivial, but once done it

Re: BitX40 Tips and Mods doc
Rob, This is GREAT. Please email me (kc7rys @ gmail dot com) if you don't mind, I'd like to discuss a way to make this available for anyone, not just members of the group, if you're okay with that. --

Re: Possible PA low output problem.
Well, why not just go ahead and figure it out and post your work to the group? I've never heard of a kit or fully-wired rig come with such rudimentary test facilities before, so what you ask borders

Agreed Joel, that was an excellent explanation. Thank you Jack and Rob. Also, it's not just the two year olds. My harmonics are 7 and 9. There are plenty of interrupts! 73 de KB1VNA

Re: Frequency display refresh (or lack thereof)
There are two ways to read an encoder: 1) polling, or 2) an ISR. Polling is easiest to code; you'd just stick a call in loop() to see if the encoder has moved on each pass through the loop. That would
