Thanks for the info. Power supply
Can't find who posted this PS but it works very well! Straight plug and use on the zBitx. HFSignals would do well to offer this model as an option. Ronny W4TRI

Re: zBITX Time Question
In addition, I see that the zBITX is currently 1.6 seconds DT when monitored on my IC-7610 that is GPS locked.? I wonder how to correct the clock inside the zBITX even while it is currently connected

Re: zBITX CW Mode - Proof of Concept
Hi Gordon, That's my thinking also.? If I can get a GPIO Interrupt on key-down working, having that enable Tx Mode would be my first step.? Have not though it out beyond that - I'm just taking it

Re: zBitx Power Supply

Re: Batteries on ZbitX
I don't believe any capacity beyond 4000mAh. Or maybe somebody can explain why I pay $15 for a single 3600mAh cell but $3.95 for two 15.000mAh cells including a charger at Ali's. Simple check: check
