Well you will just have to fall back on your Chambers Seven Figure Mathematical tables.? Or perhaps you can get your hands on a Monroematic electric calculator or even one of those crank and shift

Re: Need Clarification on uBitx v. 4 Schematic
i suppose that RD16HHF1 are to be used. Some people experiment with RD15HVF1 too. They feel that 21 and 28 mhz performance would improve. but you might suffer poor performance at 80m band etc Regards

Hi Jerry, Thanks for the additional information. I've been reading many of your explanations of the interworking of the si5351 with interest. Especially the tidbit about it using a variable delay line

Re: New VK4PLN Audio Daughter Board + BCI
Hi. I'm thinking I'll make the board so it reaches all the way to the LPF relays. One end is supported by the connector and then you can just glue a couple of 12mm stand offs on the first and last

Re: uBitx calibration

Sounds like the CEC firmware uses about the same math as the stock uBitx code: ? ??/g/BITX20/message/37973 What calibration does is to set the value of si5351bx_vcoa This is the

Re: uBitx calibration

Hi, I only know about the CEC firmware. In that case it is the offset of the 25mhz crystal. The calibration number would be 0 if the 25mhz crystal was exactly correct. If you use the CEC uBITX

When setting the calibration, is the change from 0 absolute (based on the clock on the radiuno), or relative (based on the previous saved calibration? Or, if the calibration is set +1 for three

If you have a dongle capable of direct sampling, or, an UpConverter you can tap the antenna between K1 and K3. This will give the dongle full bandwidth whereas KD8CEC's method presents only the IF

Re: New VK4PLN Audio Daughter Board + BCI

Re: New VK4PLN Audio Daughter Board + BCI
Nick looks great, and a good way to add mods to the uBITX would you consider a pair of LM4562s for the CW filter?...a little quieter, and would use the same R/C components BillK6SIK
