Victory is at hand.? PWR / SWR Meter is working.
As I have suspected for a while the problem turned out to be the some combination of the Arduino board and the Wire library.? As Rafael suggested I

Re: Adding a TUNE button to a V2 software build
Udo,
maybe you should switch to 64 bit OS
Please use a new uSD card to keep the original OS.
Make a copy of the important data on a USB stick so that you can copy them to the new OS.

Hi Jeff,
I really like you side panel.
I¡¯m going to attempt to install a Pi 5 with the same type of fan setup you have, into my v3. I was hoping that I could get you to share your STL file that you

Re: Adding a TUNE button to a V2 software build
Hello, I am DK1AUP and I am trying to update my sBITX V3.02 to 3.027. But after the installation 3.021 appears. What am I doing wrong? The VFO frequency was also several Hz off.
Can someone help

Re: Adding a TUNE button to a V2 software build
Real estate on that main form is tight.
I think if we add Gordon¡¯s Tune button the QRO standby/enable button in the 64bit build will need to go into the DSP submenu.
There aren¡¯t many open spots

More power to both you guys!? ?I'm sure it can be done better; I just had some time and it bubbled to the top of my available projects.

Re: Adding a TUNE button to a V2 software build
It is done on the farhandev branch. But the branch is broken at the moment.
I had a painful, unscheduled audit at my day work and I couldnt get time to
add the oled.h to the repo.

Re: Adding a TUNE button to a V2 software build
Thanks for sharing! This is very similar to what I was working on, so I will see how to make it better, I'll comment your code if I end up using it. My code has variables to set the power and duration

Yes, it looks like a pcb, because I made it from a piece of pcb and I wrote in the previous message that the

When I had to cool a RPi, I got these fans:

They're smaller and easier to fit in a case. But in case those are still
too big, you could try these:

Thank you for this fan recommendation, did you use this fan? Is it quiet? Did you blow air on the Pi or draw air away from it?

What did you make the fan plate out of? It looks like maybe PCB material? What length standoffs did you use to space the fan away from the back of the Raspberry Pi? Thanks for the

Re: sBITX active cooling

Joel,
the RPi is not cooled by the fan from the side of the IC part in this method, but by blowing air on the back side of the pcb. This is how you achieve cooling and you don't have to deal with

No argument there about the IDE. I normally use visual studio. But this sketch is so small, it doesn't really matter. Looks like your build environment is on Linux.? Mine is on

Hi Dean,
You can just use the Makefile and the ATTinyCore I mention to compile the "stock" firmware (just swap the .ino to Farhan's). I don't use the Arduino IDE, which I hate tbh.
