Re: Struggling with tuning clicks and birdie sounds
In v1.14 there were indeed some changes in the routines for the settings menu that cause some buzzing sound. The display refresh rate is now too high, I will reduce that back to where it was in v1.13.

Re: Struggling with tuning clicks and birdie sounds
It seems to affect all settings.? Twisting the wires for the volume control together to form a tighter bundle does seem to help some.? I wonder if ferrite beads on the wires would help even more? --

Re: Struggling with tuning clicks and birdie sounds
Darren, thanks for reporting yes I could reproduce some buzzing when the radio is in the settings menu, I'll try to improve this in the next version 1.15 Are there any particular settings menu options

Re: W8TEE TFT /VFO BOARD - WHICH DISPLAY?
Joe: In the mcufriend_kbv library, see the file MCUFRIEND_kbv.cpp. There is a line near the top that is commented out: "//define support_1289 // costs about 408 bytes" Your lcd clearly is a 1289; it

Go on the arduino forum and find the thread for the MCUFRIEND_kbv library. The guy that keeps it up to date is on that thread and can tell you how to set it up. Also make sure you have the latest

Re: BITX QSO Night, Sunday, June 18, 7pm Local Time, 7277 kHz in North America, 7177 kHz elsewhere
As for 7177 KHz, it is usually clobbered by QRM on 7175. I have found 7178 or better yet 7179 to have less QRM than 7177. Any frequency below 7200 that can be used for SSB would work for Region 1 and

Re: W8TEE TFT /VFO BOARD - WHICH DISPLAY?
Well, that's about all the tricks I can control. See if you can find a driver for that board somewhere. If the vendor has demo code that runs, ask for that to see how they got it to run. Jack, W8TEE
