10 turn pot
I received a 10 turn pot today, installed and changed the sketch for a 300 kHz span. It works great, however I found the tuning a bit too coarse. I changed the span to 100 khz, tuning was much better,

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
Really a nice job. I'd be interested in seeing the schematic. I've been thinking of a remote antenna switch, but I don't need 8?ports! ? -- John - WA2FZW

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
I don't know where this code came from, but display_fields[] is an array of objects, but I don't know what. Who has the complete code? Jack, W8TEE To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, October 3, 2017

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
I am trying to make a complete program with setup() and a loop() with your code. I think it would be real useful. I am stuck here, what is display_fields a function somewhere? Compiler was asking, and

Re: Yet another magnetic loop antenna
I uploaded Version 1.1 of the software in the A 40 meter magnetic loop antenna ( /g/BITX20/files/A%2040%20meter%20magnetic%20loop%20antenna ) folder. It fixes a bug in the LCD_Print

Re: preview: Raduino v1.25 with capacitive touch CW keyer
Not obvious the third pin is required for the capacitive touch keyer. The dit and dah Nano input pins could also have open-drain outputs, so drive the pin low and then release it to slowly float back

Re: Fw: [BITX20] A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
Thanks for noticing the bug! The code snippet is out of the mag loop controller code ( /g/BITX20/files/A%2040%20meter%20magnetic%20loop%20antenna ) . It's only using about 30% of the

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
Another way to minimize LCD activity is to only display the text "delta". The following function is one I created to display text on an LCD. The display being "broken" into a number of "fields" (row,

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
John, I designed the board and laid it out using diptrace. I had a few made. They are expensive, because of the size of the board. The photo is deceptive as it's about 9" square. Here is a close up of

Re: Fw: [BITX20] A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
Yeah, and/or: static char oldrig[21]; since strcpy won't malloc any space for you. I actually intended it to be that way but forgot the [21]. I also changed it all 3 or 4 times before I sent it.

Re: A bit OT, blame it on W8TEE
To cure the flicker, store what you already wrote to the display (eg. rig). If it's the same as it was, don't rewrite it. void printrig(char *rig) { static oldrig; if(!strcmp(rig,oldrig)) return; else
