Re: UHF/VHF uBITx equivalent

But, this is not much of a homebrew. The challenge would be to build
something from scratch.

Re: UHF/VHF uBITx equivalent
Hi Fred.
This is also on my project list. I have both the V and U version of the DRA818. I am planning on a simply desktop unit powered by arduino and a nokia 5110 lcd.
a cheap baofen mic/speaker.

Hi Ian. This work you are doing on the FW is incredible. Many thanks for your efforts, and to every one else for their contibutions.
I plan on doing the following to your version once you are "done"

Re: Cheap Harbor Freight Case for MBITX
I've been working on a plastic one that fits both the Pelican 1150 and the Apache 1800. I actually bought the Pelican without the pick-n-pluck.
I still need to thin it some since I found it can

Hi Ian,
Great, thanks for the extra explanation.
I have been using the v.31 a bit this evening and I like the changes.

Re: Software support Request for Full QSK BITX40
Very interesting, and quite promising.
Like I say, I hope it works.
I'm not keen to have all those relays in there.

Re: [SPAM] Re: [BITX20] IRF510 amplifier failures
Using two LM78L05's in a push-pull amp is very cool, he seems to think it works to 30mhz.
That regulator has been around for about 40 years, there are better now.
The faster a regulator responds, the

Of course. When the firmware is complete, I will upload manual.
I will briefly describe the ADC measurements.
ADC measurements can be used in many ways.

Re: UHF/VHF uBITx equivalent
The RDA818/DRA818 is a VHF/UHF transceiver IC used by baofengs and the
like. There are a number of projects (including hamshield I think) which
use it.

Re: [SPAM] Re: [BITX20] IRF510 amplifier failures
If a fuse is too slow and a simple current limit makes the amp non-linear,
perhaps use foldback current limiting.
If the current ever exceeds perhaps 3 Amps, then shut down the power to the

Re: [SPAM] Re: [SPAM] Re: [SPAM] Re: [BITX20] IRF510 amplifier failures
You are absolutely right, Jerry.
It was not my intent to diss the IRF MOSFETS.
What I am saying is that they are different beasts
and one has to understand that to make them work well.
And it can be

Thanks for this firmware. I am borrowing a little memory space left for the
next concept and adding fun features.

Thanks for information.
So far, what I wanted was a minimal real transceiver function.
