Re: BitX40: Strange CW Sidetone Behaviour - level increases after a second or two
I think Allard's solution is likely minimal and acceptable. ?For not so minimal, here's somebody who has added sidetone injection at the volume control:

Re: Si5351A: facts and myths
That might be a good argument to use the R output divider after the output multisynth. ?Would be interesting to see if a divide by two in R generates less of a second harmonic on the Bitx40, just a

Re: BitX40: Strange CW Sidetone Behaviour - level increases after a second or two
Hi Michael,
Yes, you're right, it's not a 100% perfect method, the diminished sidetone on initial key-down is a result of that cap charging up - I have exactly the same behaviour here.
If you find a

Re: Getting raduino crystal frequency with frequency counter
Yep. That'll work.
This probably will not work to measure the Si5351 crystal. You will get
a signal, but it probably will not be correct. Measure at pin2 or pin3 of U2,
but I would not recommend it

Re: Si5351A: facts and myths
Hi all,
?
I developed an own VFO basing on Si5351 and Arduino in 2015. I had the same question: Is the Quality of the oscillator signal good enough for a high quality SW receiver ?

Hans,
I took the code from??/g/BITX20/files/KE7ER/si5351bx_0_0.ino

Re: Raduino purchase (decoupling Si5351 from +3.3v)
I like that Idea.
I have noticed on another project some for of slight AM modulation on carriers and was suspecting of 3.3v power fluctuations (taken from the arduino 3.3v tap)

Re: bitx40/Raduino sketch version 1.3, now full documented.
Hi Art.
The limits on the calibration was set to -8000 to + 8000 for my empiric values so you are getting (+) 8000 and that's top value. (My hardware needs +3670)

I use the function button under settings, calibrate lsb and it reads -8000 ppl. All good? Can't change it. Not that I need to as it is on freq. sorry for my confusion

Ok got it. I am using your code and library (mcu). The freq is spot on and when I look at the value of the lsb setting it reads -8000 ppm.
Thanks
