Re: uBitx Workshop
Ash, Thanks for the construction tips. What kind of saw do you use cut squares. A table saw set very low?? Maybe an angle grinder? -- 73 Dave ADOB ( https://www.qrz.com/db/AD0B ) Raduino bracket and

Re: Waiting with Bated Breath
Ken, I confess I have been quite new with the RPi series and had not heard of the 3A+, but it looks interesting, although 3X the price. In my case, my son gave me a Pi-zero "kit" to play with and I

The goal is not 'just' an operational radio, it is also about demonstrating the design and build processes (as I read it). From their website homepage: Educational Value Added This is meant to be an

Re: UBITX is in hand!
Jerry Wow half hour, those of us who did previous versions may be groaning. Yes there is no button for fast tuning, hence this feature. You might miss it when its gone, or you may wish to slow it

UBITX is in hand!
The doorbell just rang. It was a DHL courier with the UBITX. I just put it together. Calling it a "kit" is IMHO a little overblown. It was all of a half hour effort to bolt everything together. The

Re: uBitx Workshop
Didn't say it would work for RF, only that it looked cool. Given all of the LEDs in the photo, it's probably not doing anything at RF. Al and I have fabricated PCB's using the same ground plane/etched

Re: uBitx Workshop
The trouble with neat looking circuits is that they are invariably trouble at RF. In Manhattan construction, the pads for inadvertent capacitors of really poor quality that degrade the rf performance

Re: Linear Amplifier Build
There used to be a rule that commercial linears could not work on 10M - companies would make them topping out at 15M, and offer a kit to get 10M to licensed amateurs. Is that still in place? - Jerry

Re: Linear Amplifier Build
Further, it refers to the input of the amp to the output of the amp, not the internal stage(s). Many LDMOS amps I've seen have an attenuator on the input port inside the amp. The 15db factor comes
