Re: My son's V6
I also used this on the antenna input for a while before I built my own filter. It worked ok. Definitly killed the AM interference. Their may have been some slight attenuation of the transmitted

Re: My son's V6
Kit-projects sells a uBitx broadcast filter kit on the web page where they sell their agc board. It requires you to wind 3 tiny torroids but it works well. There is another design you can build

Hello, The other time when I did a search on E.. Y, with the keyword Ubitx, I came across this. A filter, but I don¡¯t know any more...

Re: My son's V6
Bob, I would agree with Gary's suggestion to add the Broadcast Band high pass filter. I had a similar experience to your son's one afternoon.? All of a sudden I had birdies all over the band.?

Re: No Rx from my V4.3
Patrick, The v5 firmware uses a different SSB filter frequency.? That software will not work with a v4 board.? Here is a link to the KD8CEC software that has both the v4 and v5 board software.

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
It's been lots of years since I have looked at huff-and-puff oscillator stabilization. What I wrote in that last post is incorrect, there's more going on here. Jerry, KE7ER

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
So it seems the Huff and Puff method is for providing the final little bit of frequency stabilization to a VFO that is already adjusted to oscillate very close to the desired frequency. Would the Huff

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
This may be an alternate way of looking at what you are proposing. I suspect you are describing a phase-locked-loop. And that yes, you have tried it. There's a phase-frequency-detector inside the

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
I was expecting Arv to write in about H&P schemes. Between him and Hans, there is all we know about how this scheme works. The challenge of Huff and Puff is that it needs a very stable oscillator to

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
The Arduino (ATMega328) can count external clocks up to 1/2 the clock used to run the chip. With a 16mhz clock for the ATMega328 that would be external frequencies up to just shy of 8mhz can be

Re: No Rx from my V4.3
Can you hear static or at least an increase in background noise as you plug the antenna in? Perhaps bring a wire from the antenna connector over near the 25mhz crystal of the Si5351 on the Raduino,

Re: My son's V6
Maybe try swapping uBitx's with your son. See if the problem follows the rig or stays with the QTH. Out of curiosity, do all these extra carriers move at the same speed as normal signals as he tunes

My son's V6
As many of you know, I gave my V6 to my son in Sacramento, CA. He's an avid QRPer and would rather make a contact with low power/QRP than with a kilowatt. His first impression is that the radio is

Re: Follow-up Antuino question
This H&P jitter may not matter much if it isn't very frequent. If it's a second or two between updates and the frequency slews at a reasonable rate after an update, the "jitter" should be no more
