Re: uBix - transmit clicking when Mic inserted
Hi,
I don't plug-in or unlug anything wit the radio powered. Notthe uBitx. Not the PFR-3, not the Johnson Ranger, not the SW-3 (1933 vintage). Most of the time it's okay but can cause real fireworks.

Re: Ubitx v4 whining and swr check issue(?)
The uBitx does transmit out of ham bands but the change of filters is set in relation to ham band edges.
Example for 40m, the 7-10Mhz? filter is switched ON when the frequency is set above

Re: uBix - transmit clicking when Mic inserted
What is happening on my radio is that the tip shorts between the ground and the ptt as it slides in. Keying ptt. It shouldn't be putting out much power as the mic is not active until the last

Re: uBitx worked, shut off, now no audio
Which version of the uBitX? If it is a v.3 board most likely the audio amplifier chip (begins with WX) has failed, a common issue. If it is a late version of that board the chip will be in a socket

Re: Tracing receive signal for low signal
As I understand it, the VFO is not changed UNLESS you have the RIT set.? I should have asked you to verify that first.

uBitx worked, shut off, now no audio
Hello, all!
I finished the assembly of my uBitx and case. I turned it on and it seemed to be working. I did not have an antenna attached so was only hearing noise, but It would only stay on for about

Re: Tracing receive signal for low signal
Thanks again.? Question wouldn't calibration impact both receive and transmit?? In this case receive seems spot (same frequency matches on Yaesu and ubitx and can zero beat on tone) on but I think

Re: Tracing receive signal for low signal
You are welcome, though it the transmitter is off by 3khz, that is an indication that the calibration is off, and the 3khz off would put it outside of the 2.5khz bandpass for the 12mhz filter.? I
