Re: Need a Raduino
I bought a BitX40 a while back with no intention of using the Raduino. It's still in the bubble wrap. $30 shipped prio conus. Email me direct if you're interested. vev at michvhf dot com Vince. --

Need a Raduino
Hello, All; My BITX40V3 Raduino just went "Tango Uniform"... Display is blank, (blocks only), no control of tuning, will not accept a reload of the sketch. COM port seems ok. Anybody have a spare

Bandpass filter
I'm looking at getting a second bitx to multiband. I know this wouldn't work for the LPF, but I wondered if anyone had considered or tried making band pass filters using standard value miniature

Re: If the IRF-510 is blown will the radio output anything at all?
Yes, beware q13 and qro. I just blew it up. Fwiw, an ordinary 2n2222a works quite nicely.

Re: uBITX Questions
what i meant is that you must terminate all the clock inputs into resistive loads of between 100 and 80 ohms and then measure the spurs. - f

Re: More questions
Here are the two lines (highlighted yellow below) I added to the checkTX routine at line 666 (in v1.25.1) to prevent the carrier burst. Will also be included in v1.26 (to be released soon). void

Re: More questions
Yes Dave; ? ? ?That sounds like it would work, at least to the extent that it would suppress the Rx pop to the AGC limit. Connecting the diode directly to the gate of the FET might be more

Re: More questions
No, no other mods. The only thing that might make a difference is that I'm using 75ms delay instead of 50ms. I found that for my rig 50ms is just too short to completeley eliminate the burst. (BTW

Re: More questions
I was thinking of using the tx output from the Raduino, which goes to +5 on TX and drives the transistor that then drives the relays, rather than the PTT Sense which as you say goes to?zero on TX.?

Re: More questions
Thanks Allard.? I did try using the PTT sense but still got a very short burst of carrier visible on the scope connected at the antenna output.? Maybe you have some other pop reduction mods in place
