Re: what else should I order from there? #parts
I use their I2C LCD backpack boards and their SI5351 board (which can be fed either 5V or 3.3V).? They have kits of machined header pins and sockets, and rotary encoders, as well.? And the little

Re: #bitx40 #parts need spec's on BITX40 capacitor C7 #bitx40 #parts
Thanks for the info. My typo, I used a pair of .22 pF for .44pF (closes I could get). Your right is doesn't work too well, although I could hear a a QSO around 7.3 MHz. Thanks again, Daniel KB3MUN

Re: #bitx40 #parts need spec's on BITX40 capacitor C7 #bitx40 #parts
470pf? in an NPO or C0G or silver mica would be ideal. Voltages there are quite low, less than 5v, so most any voltage rating. That would give you 0.44uF, which is 440000pF.? Not good, I'd be

Re: #bitx40 #parts need spec's on BITX40 capacitor C7 #bitx40 #parts
2 x 0.22uF in parallel gives 0.44uF. Much, much, much? bigger value than 470pF.

#bitx40 #parts need spec's on BITX40 capacitor C7 #bitx40 #parts
I need part specification for BITX40 capacitor C7. I know it is a 470 pF. Is it an NPO? what voltage rating? This week past, I put together my BITX40. Observing very weak audio signal, I was following

Re: Very low power output (BitX40), everything appears to be working but setup driving me crazy!
Hi John, Used tone on 7.023 into a dummy load only because I had a Pixie2 at that freq that I could listen for my output. Voice I tried several frequencies. The issue did not vary much with freq.

Jerry, Great, thanks, will give it a try. Sounds simple and will be a good way to check my cheap CB watt meter. Gene N2IJF ________________________________ Sent: Saturday, December 30, 2017 9:46 PM

Re: Laser cut ubitx case SVG
Nice design. Perhaps we can manage spot welding 4 nuts behind the lcd and thus prevent the 4 mounting holes. Kindly think of such possibility. best of NEW Year 2018 regards Sarma

Re: Very low power output (BitX40), everything appears to be working but setup driving me crazy!
Gene, What frequency did you test on, and did you try other frequencies? It turns out my Bitx40 shows different output levels depending on the frequency across the 40m band, maybe your board has the

Re: Very low power output (BitX40), everything appears to be working but setup driving me crazy!
Yes, you can use it without the Nano. Assume the transmitter is driving the 50 ohm dummy load with a 20 volt peak to peak sine wave. Since the other end of the 50 ohm dummy load is grounded, the 20

Re: uBITX Case
FYI, The Ubitx does fit into the Excellway case but it is a bit tight. I managed to get a hole cut into the front panel that just fits the display and leaving room to the left for the vertical screw

Re: How to find the missing "Low pass filter at 30 MHz" article by W7ZOI #ubitx
I don't know what specific parts W7ZOI used.? There's very little power flowing through this filter, though, so it should be easy duty for the components. I used these:

Hi Jerry, Sorry for the delay (holidays you know). I do have a number of the 100N50 resistors and find that they work great. Yes, I saw the notes from Jack but I am unclear about the operation.
