Re: BitX40 voltage booster implementation
Dear OM, when we increase the voltage, proportionally current has to be increased, so as to maintain output impedence. Hence at 24v, current should be 2A. such voltage and current will produce lot

Re: SMD Group Build
I am not sure if it has been stated or not, but the SMD trainer with the LED's is available on eBay, starting under $2.00 (depending how fast you want it). Comes with all SMD parts, you provide the

Re: Antenna connector continuity Ubitx
I did insulate them... no continuity between tab and screw. I check both... i din’t know what happened but as soon as i separated the fers from the box chasis it was fine

Re: #ubitx and 6 meters #ubitx
Hmmmm, if the IF is at 45mhz, won't operating above that invert the sidebands? Easy enough to compensate for in the raduino I suppose. Just a thought.? -- Ryan Flowers - W7RLF MiscDotGeek.com (

Re: SMD Group Build
Farhan, and others... The old stripline PCB technique also works well. Just scribe through the copper on 0.1 inch centers to make horizontal copper lines. Then break these lines with a scriber as

Re: Power Supply Option
Well that definitely is the power requirement for the Yaesu but I was running my bitX40 On a computer power supply that I tweaked to 13.8 V And it was running fine, no issues. I even was doing digital

Re: SMD Group Build
I’m sure PCB manufacturing houses have improved a great deal, but in the Bay Area where you’d think no problem we found the best terrible. So many defective boards. Parts were often difficult to

Re: Power Supply Option
Good to know your Yaesu is fine with 13.8v. Unfortunately, R141 on a stock Bitx40v3 is not.

Re: SMD Group Build
Hello Ashhar, VU2ESE, I really like the technique you have described for working with SMDs. It reminds me of Chuck Adam's (K7QO) MUPPET (Manhattan Ugly Professional Placement Experimental Technique)

now, with finals away from the metal chasis I am testing if I have output. The power meter and needle doesn’t move at all. I do get about 1,3amp drain when ptt and i can hear myself on other radio

Re: Power Supply Option
There should be some tolerance like 10% +/- on the voltage applied that shouldn’t hurt or hinder it. My Yaesu takes 13.8v by t 12v on the line works just as well Joe KD2NFC Sent from my

Re: Power Supply Option
Many here run it at 13v and more. But at 12v R141 is already cooking, over its 1/4W rating. Q13 is also running hot. Going above 12v makes it worse. Several reports of having R141 open up, if it
