Re: Heat Sink Fan Control Circuit Wanted

I agree.? In my temp controller based on ON7EQ's code (see below) I put a real time temperature display on the OLED. If I have not been transmitting then it is simply the shack ambient temperature. As the PA warms up it is great to just check the temp anytime I want, eg while sending a contest auto CQ call or whatever. I have my temp sensor (a small thermister in my implementation) right on a copper tab attached to one of the PA transistor's mounting screws.

Hi Caleb, The download seems to be correct. This is the result on my uBitx.  After the download, there is no automatic reset: you must turn the device off and on again. If after doing this it still doesn't work properly, I'm wondering if there is something wrong with the hardware. It would be very helpful if you could connect a USB-Serial adapter to port 2 and read the output during boot, as a lot of information is sent out this port. I will be available all week if you need me. Saludos, Ram¨®n EA4GZI

I have not been able to make one contact yet on the ubitx v6, tried 2 different antennas, it is receiving good, not sure about the transmit, should I be hearing a relay kicking in, tx light comes on but do not hear a relay.

Thank you Gerald. You could knock me down with a feather - it actually works. Connecting the input to a known 144 Mhz antenna gave 1:1 SWR. I then tried it with my G5RV with an? MFJ automatic tuner, The Antuino did not like this much, but did give a trace at 28 MHz.

I finally got the Raduino32 put in the rig. Trying to flash it to work. Only getting fully white screen. Below is the COM port out from the USB port. Just repeats over and over. I flashed the ubitx32_20.bin to location 0x10000. Also tried to flash the ESP32 bootloader and factory image

While I¡¯ve also used dd for this, BalenaEtcher works great on the Mac as well.

Hi Al,
I used balenaEtcher to write to a Toshiba 32bit SD card,
runs
fine on my Pi 4, really nice of Ashhar to put the circuit of the
sBitx
as desktop back ground :-)

Hi Ashhar,
The dd is sometimes called disk destroyer if you don't
know your machines layout, for example I use dd bs=4M if=image
of=/dev/sd# status=progress && sync, I like to see the progress of the copy.

It's the native file format for Open Office, which is a pretty good substitute for Microsoft 365 with one exception: it's free.

Open an odt file with either LibreOffice or OpenOffice. Both are open source and are a free download, run on MSWindows, Linux, or MacOSX A quick google search for "odt file" says this in the first hit:
Featured snippet from the web
?
A file with the ¡°. odt¡± extension is an?OpenOffice Document file. These documents are typically created using programs like Apache OpenOffice Writer and LibreOffice Writer, word processors comparable to Microsoft Word and Google Docs. ODT files are similar to file formats created using Word, such as DOCX and DOC.Nov 8, 2021
LibreOffice and OpenOffice allow you to work with text documents and spread sheets, an open source alternative to MicroSoft Word and Excel. In fact, they do a pretty good job of opening documents and spreadsheets that were generated by Word and Excel, though Microsoft does have a habit of adding "features" so you have to buy the latest version to get everything looking just right.? I have been able to avoid Microsoft products for the last couple decades, and am eternally grateful that open software like this exists so I can read stuff sent by people who do use that Microsoft stuff.
