If 12V, maybe go to 3.3 to 4.7K.? Leds are fairly bright at a couple of ma?

Re: RX and TX LED

 

Easy, Ben! Consult the circuit diagram. Relay K1 is supplied with +12V. It then feeds either +RX or +TX as the case may be. The underside of the board has the pads to connect to, either to individual LEDs with series resistors to 0V or to a 'bi-color' LED with resistor from its common lead to 0V. Those voltages can be accessed on the top side of the board by locating resistors in the 'bi-amp' section/s and carefully attaching your wires. The traces there follow the circuit diagram. A little mental effort, but well worth it. I'd suggest only a TX LED - if not lit, the rig is is Rx mode. If your kit is non-Raduino, I'd suggest a 'Power on' rather than 'Rx' LED.

Hi, just a quick question about the frequency range, i installed ver 1.26, all ok, then changed the upper and lower frequency range to 3mhz and 15.5mhz. I had hoped to be able to rx 30 and 20 metres using different bpf, but when going up in frequency, the vfo only gets to 9.999mhz then goes back to 1mhz? I cannot get it to go any higher.

Re: RX and TX LED

Just go to the Rx and Tx lines that control the direction of the amps.? Put a 1K to each Led from them.

I think that is what you asked?

Hi Everyone,

Could anybody tell me a way I can pull voltage from the board for an LED on RX and then pull voltage from the board for a TX LED and turn off the RX LED?

Re: Signal generator.

Probably these?


#include "si5351.h"
#include <Rotary.h>

Remember the complaint the external SI library eats memory?

That's why it is internal on newer versions.

Look like those functions are in some other library other than the standard Liquid Crystal library?

It should be the standard LCD Lib, but need the SI5351 and Rotary.
