Hello, it's KD8CEC version CEC 1.20 for Ubitx 234 i have received new quartz, so i will be migrate to V5 in a week or 2. i have to calibrate them nb: It's home made Ubitx. There is also some strange

Hi Jerry, Pay attention, the title does not mention "ALC" but "AVC" Automatic Volume Control, just to clarify. In reality, the three definitions represent three different methods of regulating a

Sometimes S values do suggest "skip" zones when I listen, telling me which section of the country might more likely respond to a QRP-level CQ. Jack, W8TEE

A slight correction, or perhaps amplification: AVC (automatic volume control) is another term for this concept, and that is pretty much synonomous with AGC in my book.

The S meter isn't intended for the guy at the other end. Band conditions and a whole host of other things will affect the signal strength. The S meter is for the operator, it gives him/her something

Modifing band
hello, I tested the following thing. I¡¯d like to change the 28,000,000 band to 26,960,000 that match the target frequency CIBIE. So I changed in the manager, saved > Ok I made a working stop of the

Re: A strange thing about calibration!!
Loris, Thank you for your answer. I suspected it was a pb of this type. Actually my SI5351 is a module, and once disconnected, of course, the pb disappears. (no frequency in the BF section) For the

Re: uBITX ... AGC or AVC?
Amplifier Research did this in their RF Levelers. They used a minicircuits mixer as an attenuator using a control voltage. Vince - K8ZW.

Re: Suggestion for the NEW UBITX V7.
You really need to check the output of these power supplies with a scope. I'm a cellular systems engineer at AT&T and our -48 volt charger outputs are really dirty. We have additional filtering

It's fine to go off topic, that's what a discussion does. Anyways, the ND6T AGC circuit is about as simple as that from WB8YYY, and doesn't depend on luck to find the right LED+LDR. Unfortunate that
