Re: upgrading a V1 UbitX

 

Mike

the oldest production version is known as v3.? it uses an IC audio amp, versus a 2-transistor audio amp in v4.? likely you have one of these.? Do research which firmware you will need for your chose display.?

AGC - if you want a complete board, look down one page and you will see references to one for sale.? its a design from ND6T.? I confess I am using the VK3YE design that requires building it yourself.? Either of these should work nicely for you.? Or if you want to go high end -- please examine the Jackal before starting your mods.? Perhaps more important - make sure your ubitx is still working, and do something to correct the spurious.? A daughter board hosting 3 relays cured my harmonics, but I am still working the mixer related spurious (that impact SSB path only).?

DC input switching adapter from TSW now with provisions for aux regulated voltage available #bitx20 #bitx40 #ubitx

 

Got the boards in yesterday and prototype tested.? Partial kits available for these from the Triumvirate Skonk Works (TSW) through the website.?

There are two types of switch adapters available, one that just provides convenient plug in switching of voltages to allow you to plug in your DC input to the board and also plug the switch terminals and output to the rig into the board.? That way you can remove connections without having to unsolder wires and re-solder them later.

The second one provides the switching functions as well, but adds an onboard voltage regulator capability so you can have an auxiliary voltage output that's also turned on/off with the plug in switch connection.? We have an option to supply this one in partial kit form without the TO-220 three terminal regulator as any regulator from 3.3V to around 10 volts can be used on the board providing it fits the same IN-GND-OUT footprint of a standard 7805 or if you like, for a small increase in price a 7805, heat sink and appropriate bypass capacitors can be included.? We still leave out the series polarity protection diode as this is optional and most people already have reverse polarity protection set up on their voltage inputs.?

Pricing and ordering info is on the TSW website for anyone interested.

Attached is the construction manual for both kits in PDF format.

Yes, I did select ATmega328p (old bootloader). I have tried both ATmega328p and ATmega328p (old bootloader). Same result.

See the attached screenshot, my chronos@localhost window, which displays system messages is more specific that the IDE's cryptic message "Problem uploading to board." The message that is logged is "programmer not responding." It tries 10 times and then gives up.

A little more info on my system, which I don't THINK is causing the problem. I am running Ubuntu under Crouton on a Chromebook. I run CHIRP using /dev/ttyUSB0 to program my VHF/UHF HTs, and it works fine. It runs all other Linux software I have tried just fine. But IF my Chromebook system might be the problem, or part of it, I will start over with the IDE on an old Windows 7 laptop when I get back to Washington State (I have been in Arizona for the last four months). Frankly, though, over the years I have had a lot more problems with com ports on Windows than with /dev/tty under Linux.

I do want to express my immense appreciation for the folks who have tried to help me solve this problem!

Template Generator for uBitx Cabinets?

 

Came across a site recently that has calculators to generate cutting templates for paper structures of various shapes.

Perhaps the idea can be adapted to generate uBitx cabinet construction templates from metal, thin plastic, cardboard, etc.

Re: Mic distortion

 

It is unbalanced but I do use a coax choke.
Re: Mic distortion

 

Btw which amplifier are you using as that might add distortion too.

I use a balanced antenna and I don't have that issue. If your antenna is unbalanced, you may consider the MFJ-815 line isolator. Or a coax choke around a ferrite core with a material like 43, NiZn permeability around 800.

Hi everyone, any ideas on cleaning up the mic distortion when using a linear? I tried turning rv1 down to a few watts out on 40 but still distorting. I really don't want to affect the cw power. I thought about bring rv1 to the front panel...but, thinking against it now. Ideas?

Re: Mic distortion

 

I have not used a linear with my uBitx, however the OCFD that I have from MFJ has a lot of RF on the shield.? This got back into the mic, and caused a significant amount of distortion.? You may have the same issue, as it seems that the uBitx audio is susceptible to RF.? I would suggest shielding and ferites on the mic cable.? Could also try a snap on ferite over the coax between the uBitx and linear.

Just suggestions, again, I do not have any experience using a linear to go on.

Board Map/Layout, Test Points? (V5)

[email protected]
 

New Question:? I have the high res PDF schematic, and I have been searching around to see if I can find a high resolution board layout or graphic.? Is this out on the web somewhere??

The answer may be "no."? I'm coming into this new uBitx world from working on old Kenwoods, where I had the service manual with schematic, board graphic, and level diagrams.? Of course I don't really expect these to exist for a hundred dollar kit radio, but it never hurts to ask before I put on the magnifying glasses and start tracing.??

Thanks!

Re: 5 inch Bezel for Nextion display.

 

Bill,
I think you are right, I just re-sized the screens using the components that were used on the 3.2" screens so I was not worried that they did not fit.

Programmer ARmega328P (old bootloader) is what I meant to type. I have tried both but is is currently on (old bootloader).

Pat,
in your IDE, under "tools", what Board, Processor and Programmer did you select?

"Board" should be "Nano"
"Processor" should be "ATmega328P (old bootloader)"
"Programmer" should be "AVRISP mkII"

Re: 5 inch Bezel for Nextion display.

 

Once I have the screen files completed then I will share them? here.
As I said, I want to re-scale the spectrum display but I am at a loss to find out where it is in the software that I need to modify.
I really need to ask Ian(KD8CEC) for some guidance but I think he is a busy guy and I don't want to take up his time.

Joe, I have my own printer so I have never used any agency but I know there are plenty around.

Second Nano @ i2c for spectrum, meters, CW-decode, etc

 

I've followed what I've found so far regarding installing a second Arduino Nano to a uBitx, flashing that with i2c firmware, and getting it to band-scan and provide S-meter operation.? There are three items for which I've not found information and hope someone here can add to the experience.

1. I followed the basic option of keeping the TFT screen wired to the original Raduino Nano while placing a second Nano powered in parallel and the i2c connections paralleled/wired together.? I notice that there is a "stand-alone" option for hooking up the TFT screen between both Nanos in a loop fashion, presumably (I'm asking if this is so...) in order to play with these analysers and stuff without it affecting the radio frequency settings as it can now,?? So: Is that in fact what the "stand-alone" feature is?? I will try it, of course, though the way other people get the most out of the experience interests me.

2. I don't see Morse decode operations going; maybe the stand-alone has to be wired for that feature to work?? How do we make CW decode work on this screen and firmware, for educational value & show-and-tell purposes?? Well, I might actually use it myself a little, but mainly it's a feature it's supposed to do and it isn't doing it.

3. Somewhere along the searches and readings, I saw a spectrum display in the lower left where it's normally occupied with a menu square, the pressing of which takes one to a page containing the several operational menus. That would be interesting to see while operating normally and I suspect this is just another regular feature of either the original CEC firmware that I'm missing, or a feature of the i2c/second Nano paradigm that's not yet unlocked or discovered here.

upgrading a V1 UbitX

Michael Walker
 

Hi All

I have one of the older UbitX's (v1? or so).??

I want to start playing with a new display, so I was going to order one of the Nextion's, likely the 3.2" one.??

Is that the way most people are going?

Also, what is the current AGC recommendation?

(I know, this is a general type of message and there will be a hundred replies or so.

Thanks, Mike va3mw
