Re: Low power output on ubitx

Mike,
I spent all afternoon with my spectrum analyzer, a two-tone generator,
and my ubitx and came up with 10watts on 80m at 1.4amp total current
draw being the cleanest signal I could get.
I didn't

" Judging by others results, it doesn't look like I can get much more out
of the rig as it stands without replacing finals, etc.
It looks like my rig is now "normal" for the ubitx." I think there

Re: Low power output on ubitx

Very cool, good job!
If it was a bad solder joint in one of the lowpass filters, then only one of the 4 bands
would have failed to pass a signal.? So that probably was not the problem.

uBITX Power Output OK
The attached jpeg shows the results of testing (CW transmission) with the out of the box RV1 setting and with RV1 set for maximum output. Looks like the results are similar to what has been reported.

Re: Custom Graphics help for S-Meter
Still not totally satisfied (are we ever?), but I did do most of the coding with the idea that others could easily adopt it. It is all addition to the v1.27.7 BitX40 sketch by Allard Munter, PE1NWL,

Finally got around to working on the ubitx again.
I traced the logic for each of the three lines (TXA,TXB, and TXC) to ensure the logic was operating as it should. They were. I then traced through

Re: Micro bitx in the spectrum analyzer

Ashhar,
I had 60db of external padding between the transmitter and the SA plus
30db padding in the SA itself.
That should have been about 10 microwatts (10watt/1,000,000) of actual
power feeding

Because uBITX Encoder is very sensitive, I used the threshold method. It is
not the same as the original firmware, although it gives a difference in
the value when it is rotated slowly and when

I think the post was about a recent software upgrade, whether the new code
retained
the dynamic tuning feature or if it had regressed to fixed-rate tuning.
Do you have a software example

I've mentioned this before: "shuttle tuning". There's a sketch way back in the dim dark past that dynamically changed the step size according to how fast the encoder was being spun. 1Hz/step slow to

Re: kd8cec if shift

If an environment where have to continue using IF Shift,
I think it would be nice to adjust the BFO as you said. Because IF-Shift is
shift the BFO.
And I used Audio Spectrum for the first time

Thanks for your feed back.

Starting with uBITX Manager 1.0, there is an option for setting IF Shift.

Re: kd8cec if shift
You may just need to adjust the BFO. Out of the box mine was way off. Made
everything sound tinny. If you use a program like spectrogram you can look
at the audio output and see that it's shifted to

Re: two-tone test on ubitx
Henning,
I re-spaced the turns and reran the spectrum analyzer for both two-tone
and single tone. No discernible difference from before.
So you are correct.
I still plan on building a similar mixer

i hope you guys are using sufficient attenuation ahead of the spectrum
analyzer. typically, if you change the attenuation, the harmonica and the
fundamental should fall exactly the same dbs.

Re: Micro bitx in the spectrum analyzer

Junior,
When doing a two-tone and single tone test I do not see these
harmonics.
Carrier suppression is not what I would like but no harmonics.
