Sounds good. Then for the power challenged one could put the LCD backlight
on a push-button so it would only be on when needed.

What in the world are you talking about?? Sounds like your reply may be to an
old post from 3 or 4 years ago.? Maybe you responded to some other discussion

Try this for the existing 20/17/15 LPF? ....make the three coils all 350nH with a 47pF in parallel (easy to tack on), the capacitors at the ends are both 220pF, the other two are both 360pF. Like

I am not home and it has been a bit since I did it. You will need an ftdi usb to serial cable ($15 or so) Connect it to the computer USB port and the other end (4 pins) to the 5v, grd, rx, and tx pins

What is a bitx20A???

Hi Allison,
Yes, with LEDs the LCD would not be needed. The code should handle latching relays. In my case, that may depend on what I find available with prebuilt filter switch boards. Unless I do go

You could try downloading directly to the display. It’s slow but it would tell you if the display or card is bad.

Re: Nextion Basic 3.2 Display will not update

Hi,
I have seen this issues several times
1. Make sure your power source is good.
2. Try another microsd card.
Usually one of the above clears the problem
