Re: Follow-up Antuino question
Would be interesting to try sine wave vs square wave. But I doubt you will notice much difference, Assuming you have a low pass (or band pass) filter on the RF input, the harmonics in a square wave

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
There was some comment in the webpage about the signal being a square wave. If this shows up in the signal, causing harmonics, then included in the amp should be a "smoothing" circuit or some way to

Follow-up Antuino question
After rereading the specifications for the Antuino and its oscillator stability, I suddenly wondered if the oscillator can be used for the oscillator in a Direct Conversion receiver... Perhaps there

Re: Mic bleed into audio during TX
I had this issue with all of my uBITX.? It started as very bad RF feedback, that I was able to reduce through proper grounding.? I traced it to RF getting into the shack on the coax shield.?

Re: Kicad files
Sure seems to me that it would be a lot easier to make several littler boards to provide better shield ing between stages. Put the amplifier off by itself as a module. Try to deal with the
