Re: Spurious RF at beginning of CW transmission in the uBitx
Bob, Try the ubuitx.net trick I poseted a day back.? The two cross coupled 3904s to pull the unused power line to ground. Allison

The cables add common mode inductance.? That is an incorrect assumption as a result. We had this conversation before. In this stream. ?Allison

Re: Spurious RF at beginning of CW transmission in the uBitx
UPDATE!!!!! I tried my earlier suggestion about putting a diode in series with R66 and it causes another problem. The energy stored in C64 keeps the mic amplifier running for about a half a second

Re: RF out
Mike, good cheat! Me I pulled the connector and the pins and drilled three more holes and use a PC mount SMA so it points straight up.? Made testing easier and it looks cool. Allison

Is? ubitx_cat.ino in the same directory as the V4.3 code? There should be 7 files: ubitx_si5351.ino ubitx_menu.ino ubitx_keyer.ino ubutx_factory_alignment.ino? ubitx_ui.ino ubitx_cat.ino

Re: Need Help
Wheck wires/wiring and then check the encoder for possible failure. The fact that you get some indications of activity suggests it is broken. Allison

Re: Spurious RF at beginning of CW transmission in the uBitx
Hi Arv, It is probably a good idea to have some series resistance in the circuit (over and above that of the diodes) to limit the peak current to the 47 uF capacitors during RX-TX-RX transitions and

Re: Spurious RF at beginning of CW transmission in the uBitx
Bob N1KW I'm a bit short on time right now, but when finished with a current project I will revisit a few older pre-uBITX transceivers (BITX17A, and a BITX40A) to see if the diode idea will work on
